I trust that in that service you find somethings worthy; as for the rest of it, I know you will find ways to improve performance in the future. You and I-my fellow citizens-need to be strong in our faith that all nations, under God, will reach the goal of peace with justice. May we be ever unswerving in devotion to principle, confident but humble with power, diligent in pursuit of the Nation's great goals. To all the peoples of the world, I once more give expression to America's prayerful and continuing inspiration: We pray that peoples of all faiths, all races, all nations, may have their great human needs satisfied; that those now denied opportunity shall come to enjoy it to the full; that all who yearn for freedom may experience its spiritual blessings; that those who have freedom will understand, also, its heavy responsibilities; that all who are insensitive to the needs of others will learn charity; that the scourges of poverty, disease and ignorance will be made to disappear from the earth, and that, in the goodness of time, all peoples will come to live together in a peace guaranteed
I know that the superior academic instruction I could receive at Calvin College would be just what I am looking for to achieve a meaningful understanding of the cultural and spiritual context in which we live so I can make known the infinite love, mercy, and grace of Christ. I hope as a student, I can be one who challenges my peers to work toward their full potential, and I hope that they can challenge me to do the same by always encouraging me to practice a life of service, and continue to help make my faith my own. To me, the academic and spiritual opportunities that Calvin College offers are equally important to me. As believers, whatever we do should be done for the Lord. I hope that as a student at Calvin I would be able to encourage others because others have encouraged and strengthened me in this aspect.
The six pillars of characteristics are trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring, and citizenship. Trustworthiness is being honest and loyal to your family, friends, and your country. Respect is being tolerant and accepting differences of others.

How do we know this to be true?”. “ We have a religion that was given to us from our forefathers and has been handed down to our children. We worship in that way. It teaches us to be thankful for all the favors we receive; to love each other, and to be united. We never quarrel about religion.” “Brother, the Great Spirit has made us all, but He had made a great difference between his white and red children.

When implementing all the above the carer has created productive environment and the professional relationship has changed into more equal partnership. 2.

Along with the theories I will explore the major institutions of organised religion and education with the eventual aim of providing a clear answer to the essay question. Functionalism is a consensus theory and Functionalists believe society works as a collective consciousness. Put simply this means that functionalist thinking focuses on the theory that members of society work together with each other because it is in the individual’s best interests or that the individual is predominantly self-serving but know that in order for society to flourish they must work with others. Functionalism is also based upon the belief that every aspect of society no matter how small has a function or purpose to serve in and that in turn will keep society running efficiently and also because all members of society hold a shared consensus of norms and values. a good analogy would to be compare functionalism to motor vehicle, the engine, the petrol, the gear’s must work together in order to create fluid motion, if one were not to function efficiently the vehicle just would not operate correctly.
Effective missionaries are lifelong learners of culture, working to understand where their people currently are so they can lead them to a true, yet truly enculturated, understanding of the grace and truth of Jesus Christ. They understand that the core of the Good News can come wrapped in different packages and expressions. That is all to say, this book by Reggie McNeal resonates with my passion for people with a missional faith. That we should be more missional. To survive as a church in this modern western world, we need a huge paradigm shift of being missional.
Like Havel, this instils a sense of duty to the common man to continue the “unfinished work” so that “these dead shall not have died in vain”. The final altruistic phrases: “government of the people, by the people, for the people” further imbues a sense of hope “under God”; an uplifting moral stance that penetrated deeply into the hearts of people who listened to Lincoln’s short, succinct but sweet words. This speech is relevant today because we needed to reflect upon the values that great nations were built upon, a divine goal that America hopes to achieve and sets an example for humanity to follow. It was set as a backdrop to King’s “I have a dream” speech, that African Americans once again, would be the victim of
The people were directed to live their lives according to God’s will Decalogue/Book of the Covenant: codes made life in community possible The codes of Israel reflect the norms of the covenant: reciprocal responsibility, mercy, and truthfulness Justice: sense of what is right or what should happen The Reign of God and Justice Jesus enter human history as God’s anointed son who announces the nearness of the reign of God Jesus proclaims: resist the temptations of power and prestige, follow his Fathers will, and pray that his will shall be accomplished on earth Greatest commandment: God is to be loved with the whole heart, mind , and soul; You shall love your neighbor as yourself Jesus offers a vivid picture of the last judgment Called to be Disciples in Community Jesus summoned his first followers, they will continue the work of proclaiming and building God’s kingdom Discipleship involves: imitating the pattern of Jesus, openness to God’s will in the service of others Poverty, Riches, and the Challenge of Discipleship The rich are wise in their own eyes and are prone to apostasy and idolatry, as well as to violence and oppression The poor are neither blinded by wealth or idols which will make them open to God’s
Values influence the leader’s character and professional development, instilling a desire to acquire the essential knowledge to lead. Leaders apply this knowledge within a spectrum of established competencies to achieve successful mission accomplishment. The roles and functions of leaders apply to the three interconnected levels of leadership: direct, organizational, and strategic. Within these levels of leadership, cohesive teams can achieve collective excellence when leadership levels interact effectively. According to the presented research, the relation between cultures and leadership styles is confirmed, therefore the managers are recommended to pay attention to cultural differences in the organizations in order to have more effective and efficient leadership, and to recognize cultures existing in their work scope correctly to provide a suitable style of
