Book Synopsis Enabling Responsible Living by : Ulf Schrader
Download or read book Enabling Responsible Living written by Ulf Schrader and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-18 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book focuses on responsible living as the individual’s contribution to sustainable development. We believe that sustainable development can only be achieved if individual freedom and responsibilities are balanced on a high level while taking social, ecological and economic needs into account. A crucial element to achieve this is to integrate different perspectives of stakeholders and co-create a joined approach through partnerships. While partnerships develop new opportunities for the stakeholders involved they also require a readiness for mutual understanding, respect and courage to co-create.

Book Synopsis Being the Cause: A User Guide to Responsible Living by : Dr. G. Michael Durst
Download or read book Being the Cause: A User Guide to Responsible Living written by Dr. G. Michael Durst and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2019-07-07 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""This is the best self-improvement book on the market!"" is the summation for all of the five star ratings on Amazon. Although countless self-help books have been written, none have been able to translate psychological theory into practical, day-to-day application as well as this one does. By integrating Eastern and Western philosophy with science and religion, ?Being the Cause? provides a concise, easy-to-read guide for living. Dr. Durst promotes the concept that we are 100% responsible for everything in our experience and for our reactions to life's events. Assuming the ""Cause"" position (""I am responsible for my life and experiences"") rather than an ""Effect"" position, (They are are doing it to me"") is a break through moment for people. This focus provides not only increased knowledge, but also the impetus to change. In so doing, it directs us to greater insight, satisfaction and fulfillment.

Book excerpt: In Simple Prosperity, Dave Wann showed readers how to have an abundant, sustainable life. In The New Normal, he challenges us to do some heavy lifting and transform our non-sustainable culture by transforming ourselves. For Wann, our current "old normal" lifestyle - buying water in disposable bottles, allowing the government to ignore global warming - will not preserve the planet. To nurture our world, he challenges us to rethink our lives, stand up for a healthy planet and move towards a "new normal" lifestyle in an agenda that includes: - Initiating local business alliances that actively lobby for local buying. - Creating an investment strategy that values the balance of nature. - Supporting the design, manufacture, and use of products made with natural chemicals. - Publicly advocating a more efficient use of water by placing a higher cultural value on wetlands, streams, rivers, and lakes. The New Normal is Dave Wann's way forward, a blueprint for a better life that preserves our world.

Download or read book Future Tense written by Jonathan Sacks and published by Schocken. This book was released on 2010-04-20 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most admired religious thinkers of our time issues a call for world Jewry to reject the self-fulfilling image of “a people alone in the world, surrounded by enemies” and to reclaim Judaism’s original sense of purpose: as a partner with God and with those of other faiths in the never-ending struggle for freedom and social justice for all. We are in danger, says Rabbi Jonathan Sacks, of forgetting what Judaism’s place is within the global project of humankind. During the last two thousand years, Jews have lived through persecutions that would have spelled the end of most nations, but they did not see anti-Semitism written into the fabric of the universe. They knew they existed for a purpose, and it was not for themselves alone. Rabbi Sacks believes that the Jewish people have lost their way, that they need to recommit themselves to the task of creating a just world in which the divine presence can dwell among us. Without compromising one iota of Jewish faith, Rabbi Sacks declares, Jews must stand alongside their friends—Christian, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, Buddhist, and secular humanist—in defense of freedom against the enemies of freedom, in affirmation of life against those who desecrate life. And they should do this not to win friends or the admiration of others but because it is what a people of God is supposed to do. Rabbi Sacks’s powerful message of tikkun olam—using Judaism as a blueprint for repairing an imperfect world—will resonate with people of all faiths.
Book Synopsis On Becoming Responsible by : Michael S. Pritchard
Download or read book On Becoming Responsible written by Michael S. Pritchard and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pritchard provides a deliberate and convincing argument for a starting point for the discussion of moral development, on in which self regard and empathy provide equally essential groundings for individual morality. Drawing essential elements from the work of Reid, Strawson, Rawls, Kohlberg, and Gilligan, he builds a comprehensive framework for tracing moral development from childhood--one that allows human morality to be grounded in both reason and emotion and that recognizes the importance to morality of justice and rights as well as caring and responsibility.

Book Synopsis Free to be Responsible by : Ben Thomson Cowles
Download or read book Free to be Responsible written by Ben Thomson Cowles and published by Hope Publishing House. This book was released on 1990 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By choosing from the countless options open to us--in the social and physical environments, in the psychological and spiritual forces working around and in us--we exercise our responsibility as individuals. To be whole and healthy persons within society we need to put our heart and soul into expressing this unique opportunity to respond in appropriate and creative ways. We exercise such responsibility armed, yet made vulnerable, by the contradictory characteristics and impulses within us: creative, yet confined by limiting circumstances; reaching for, yet withdrawing from the spiritual richness available to us; aware of our abilities, yet conflicted in what we want and what we will do. Book jacket.
Book Synopsis Spirit and Sonship by : David A. Höhne
Download or read book Spirit and Sonship written by David A. Höhne and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book weaves together an interpretation of Christian Scripture with a conversation between Colin Gunton and Dietrich Bonhoeffer concerning the role the Holy Spirit plays in shaping the person and work of Christ. The result is a theological description of human personhood grounded in a sustained engagement with, and critique of, Gunton's theological description of particularity - a topic central to all his thinking. In the course of the conversation with Bonhoeffer the book also offers one of few broad assessments of his work as a systematic theologian. In bringing together the work of two important modern theologians, this book explores both the possibilities of theology generated from Christian Scripture and the central importance of the doctrines of Christ and the Trinity in understanding what it means to declare someone or something unique.
