  Torah Ethics And Early Christian Identity

  $38.99

  Thirteen experts here explore the relationship between the Mosaic law and early Christian ethics, examining early Christian appropriation of the Torah and looking at ways in which the law continued to serve as an ethical reference point for Christ-believers – regardless of whether they thought Torah observance was essential or not.

  These noteworthy essays compare differences in interpretation and application of the law between Christians and non-Christian Jews, investigate ways in which Torah-inspired ethical practices helped Christ-believing communities articulate their distinct identities and social responsibilities, and look at how presentations of the law in early Christian literature might inform contemporary Christian social and ethical practices.

  Posing a unified set of questions to a diverse range of texts, Torah Ethics and Early Christian Identity will stimulate new thinking about a complex phenomenon commonly overlooked

The Sunday morning worship experience continues the theme. Intergenerational activities further unpack the theme on Wednesday or Sunday evenings.

  Celebrate Advent offers this sort of comprehensive church-wide experience for a church. The emphasis draws from a wonderful old Christmas carol, “People, Look East”. Here’s the first of verse from this carol:
  People, look east.
  The time is near of the crowning of the year.
  Make your house fair as you are able.
  Trim the hearth and set the table.
  People, look east: Love the guest is on the way.

  Other verses play out other aspects of the season, each ending with a new variation:
  Love the rose is on the way.
  Love the bird is on the way.
  Love the star is on the way.

  Each Sunday, the theme is drawn from a verse in this carol. The included Sunday school lessons offer a Bible study for older children, youth and adults. Fully developed worship outlines are also provided, complete with prayers, litanies, children’s sermons, and even a sample sermon for each Sunday. Then, instructions for a intergenerational Bible studies and gatherings are offered for use on Wednesday or Sunday nights,.

  Attitude Adjustment Needed Now (Workbook)

  $15.99

  Having worked with hundreds of children experiencing problems with anger, Dr. David E. Miller has created a simple two-part workbook designed for these children and their parents. The workbook promotes several activities to help children learn ten coping skills for expressing anger appropriately and reducing impulsive outbursts or inappropriate expressions of anger. The coping skills are presented as “tricks” that can help a child learn to control his or her anger. By working through the children’s portion of the workbook, a child learns coping skills for better handling anger and begins to consider consequences for his or her decisions and behavior. The parent’s section of the workbook contains many suggestions and resource ideas for helping their children learn coping skills, resulting in better anger management. Since these concepts have application to the classroom as well as the home environment, the workbook can serve as a resource to parents, teachers, and other personnel working with children in educational settings.
