How the Other Half Worships

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Domestically and abroad, America is known as the richest country in the world. It is hard not to be impressed by the standard of living in the nation`s most affluent suburban and urban neighborhoods. Yet, scattered amid stretches that abound in wealth, the country is home to neighborhoods rife with violence, poverty, segregation, and decay. Within these blighted urban landscapes, however, there is at least one notable example of plenty: churches. They do not always appear as traditional houses of worship, but often emerge from the retrofitted shells of former storefronts, garages, factories, warehouses, domestic dwellings, and public institutions. Regardless of the faA§ade, churches populate America`s poorest neighborhoods. Bringing together more than 300 richly textured color photographs and a series of candid interviews with pastors, church officials, and congregation members, this extraordinary book explores the conditions, beliefs, and practices that shape the churches and the… [detailed...]

How the Way We Talk Can Change the Way We Work: Seven Languages for Transformation

2002 y.
Publisher: Jossey-Bass
Description: Why is the gap so great between our hopes, our intentions, even our decisions-and what we are actually able to bring about?

What can we do to transform this troubling reality? In this intensely practical book, Harvard psychologists Robert Kegan and Lisa Laskow Lahey take us on a carefully guided journey designed to help us answer these very questions.
