Church Called Tov, A (9781496446008)



What is the way forward for the church?
Tragically, in recent years, Christians have gotten used to revelations of abuses of many kinds in our most respected churches--from Willow Creek to Harvest, from Southern Baptist pastors to Sovereign Grace churches. Respected author and theologian Scot McKnight and former Willow Creek member Laura Barringer wrote this book to paint a pathway forward for the church.

We need a better way. The sad truth is that churches of all shapes and sizes are susceptible to abuses of power, sexual abuse, and spiritual abuse. Abuses occur most frequently when Christians neglect to create a culture that resists abuse and promotes healing, safety, and spiritual growth.

How do we keep these devastating events from repeating themselves? We need a map to get us from where we are today to where we ought to be as the body of Christ. That map is in a mysterious and beautiful little Hebrew word in Scripture that we translate "good," the word tov.

In this book, McKnight and Barringer explore the concept of tov--unpacking its richness and how it can help Christians and churches rise up to fulfill their true calling as imitators of Jesus.

Manufacturing Renaissance (9780875846101)

The past decade has witnessed a rebirth in the competitive landscape of manufacturing. From a global environment of rapidly changing consumer tastes and technologies, a group of aggressive and highly competent industrial competitors has emerged. No longer can companies build a manufacturing advantage around standard designs and mass production or products that contain an "acceptable percentage" of defects. Managers everywhere now share a strategic imperative to pursue "world-class" productivity, quality, and flexibility in manufacturing. Organizations cannot compete in the global marketplace without manufacturing capabilities that match or exceed those of the best in the world. In Manufacturing Renaissance, the editors have gathered 20 articles from the Harvard Business Review on manufacturing strategy and practice - all published as intense global industrial competition has forced a reexamination of many long-held beliefs about manufacturing and its role in the mod...
