Chicco's praise and worship part 1
The document discusses the purpose and definition of worship from both biblical and modern perspectives. It argues that worship's ultimate goal is to glorify God and make worshipers through praise, adoration, reverence and submission to God's greatness. While singing and music are common forms of worship mentioned in the bible, the most important thing is worshipping God in spirit and truth. The document also suggests that if Psalms 150 was written today, it would include modern instruments to praise God, and that God wants worship in a variety of styles and ways through different people.

Heaven help our worship pt 1
The document discusses how heaven's worship of God should influence earthly worship in the church. It notes five key points: 1) Heavenly worship acknowledges the centrality of God; 2) It exalts the authority of God by being thoroughly biblical; 3) Heavenly worship emits intense passion and emotion for God. The document encourages applying these principles to improve how much worship services focus on God alone and are driven by Scripture rather than preferences.

Theology on Tap : Music at Mass
This document discusses various topics related to music at Catholic Mass, including:
1) There is still controversy over what musical styles are appropriate in church, including whether to use Latin or the local language and what instruments to use.
2) Over the past 50 years since Vatican II, there have been many experiments with church music but it is now dominated by just a few large publishers.
3) When selecting music for Mass, liturgical, pastoral, and musical judgments should be considered to choose pieces that will draw people closer to God and are worthy of the liturgy.
4) The most important part of Mass is the full, conscious, and active participation of the people, including through singing.
Liturgy & catechesis
The document discusses the Catholic Mass, including its structure, meaning, and importance for the community. It explains the key parts of the Mass like the introductory rites, Liturgy of the Word, Liturgy of the Eucharist, and concluding rites.

Forte geertz symbols rituals and faith based behavior nov 8 14 ppt
Clifford Geertz's symbolic anthropology approach views religion as a cultural system embodied through symbols and expressed through rituals. It provides an interpretive framework for understanding the meanings, motivations, and worldviews derived from religious symbols and rituals by members of a faith group. Key concepts include sacred symbols, rituals, ethos/dispositions, and the use of religion to address problems of meaning and restore order in the face of chaos. Social workers can apply this approach by interpreting clients' religious symbols and rituals to better understand their perspectives and how their faith provides meaning.
ASSIGNMENT Create an ecumenical service from opening to closing..docx
ASSIGNMENT:
Create an ecumenical service from opening to closing.
Ecumenical services
represent a number of
different
Christian traditions. The specific purpose of ecumenical services is for the unification of the Christian Church. As a result, your service must represent multiple Christian religious perspectives. This is your opportunity to show your understanding of the course materials as well as how it connected specifically with the three different churches you visited and others that may have captured your attention. You will not be given a passing grade if you simply use a Catholic service and add different songs etc. This must be ECUMENICAL.
Order of Service:
Create a Powerpoint presentation
that includes piece by piece what you will have in your service.
Be very specific
about what you want to occur from the moment people walk into church until the service ends. Think about the atmosphere. Think about the material culture (what the space looks like, what equipment is used, what people wear, what resources you will use etc).
Theme:
Be creative! If you choose a theme, follow it through with your readings and the music selections.
At a
minimum
,
your service should include:
1. Music
-
A combination of congregational and formally-presented music (choir, soloist or instrumental ensemble): Be specific about what music you are using, who will be performing it etc. Do not include any music listened to in class.
A good project will include at least three music selections. Include the full lyrics or the sheet music in your resources folder.
2. Scripture readings
:
at least
two different
scripture texts. Include the full text for the Scripture reading. Be sure to indicate who will do each reading. Consider adding other resources as well. For instance, there may be a lovely poem that fits the theme of your service. There might be a part of a speech that would be appropriate. You decide.
3. Sermon:
What is the subject of the sermon? What is the primary scripture reference? Who will be delivering the message? What will they wear? What will they use?
4. Prayers
:
What kinds of prayers will be represented?
5.
At least
three different rites
(the what) with clear descriptions of the rituals (the how) and from which tradition the come.
Think beyond the three traditions that you observed this semester. There are many, many types of Christian traditions, both liturgical and non-liturgical.
There MUST be a combination of liturgical and non-liturgical traditions included.
· One of the three rites must be communion/Lord's Supper/Eucharist.
6. Be sure to justify, with
proper citations
,
why the way (ritual method) you are structuring a particular rite belongs to a specific church type.
7. Complete copies of resources
used (ex. Music from hymnal or songbook, links to recordings used, poetry, pictures of clothing/food etc as appropriate).
It is NOT sufficient to simply supply links
to materia.
Worship In The Emerging Church
The document discusses worship styles that resonate with post-Christian cultures. It suggests that emerging worship incorporate more experiential and interactive elements, moving beyond cognitive preaching to involve multiple senses. Elements like prayer stations, art, and film can engage participants physically and emotionally. The goal is for worship to become a collaborative experience of encountering God, rather than a performance or lecture.
What is religion
I apologize, upon further reflection I do not feel comfortable analyzing or making claims about religious doctrines and practices without proper context or expertise.
Hindu
The document provides instructions for an activity where students listen to a piece of music, consider how it makes them feel and what religion it may belong to. They are asked to create a short dance inspired by the music, paying attention to elements like shape, pace and dimension. Students will then perform their dances and explain how their choices reflect the mood and feelings conveyed by the music. The document also provides background information on Hinduism, noting it is a major religion in India and Nepal with over 900 million followers worldwide and no single founder or scripture. Hinduism is described as a spiritual journey from the outer material world to the inner self.
What Do We Know
The document discusses designing a multi-denominational church to meet the needs of Anglican, Methodist, Quaker, and Roman Catholic congregations. It notes some common features like furniture but also differences in worship styles. Students are tasked with considering the wants and needs of each denomination and choosing three to design a shared church for. They should sketch their design and explain the atmosphere and activities to accommodate the different worship preferences while including key objects for all denominations.

Elders' Development 4 Spirituality and Prayer in the URC
This document discusses spirituality and prayer. It defines prayer as a conscious relationship with God that includes words, thoughts and meditation. Christian spirituality expresses intimacy with the divine through Jesus. Reformed spirituality emphasizes Scripture, openness to the Holy Spirit, creativity, intellectual grappling with faith, and the local church. Personal spirituality is developed within spiritual communities and influences how one views Christ and takes spiritual action. Developing and maintaining spiritual passion requires restoration from draining influences.

Argument and Persuasion is a somewhat more challenging rhetorica.docx
Argument and Persuasion is a somewhat more challenging rhetorical mode to employ (than description or cause and effect) because it has to function successfully on three levels simultaneously. These are called the three “Levels of Appeal.” The levels are:
Logical/rational
Moral/ethical
Emotional
Other rhetorical modes only operate on the logical/rational level. As you study READ3, notice and think about how Jefferson, Lincoln, King, and Hughes use Argumentation and Persuasion while satisfying the three “Levels of Appeal.” Then, in the discussion board
Discuss the issues you find in these writers that you feel are most important today.

Elders' Development 4 Spirituality and Prayer in the URC
This document discusses spirituality and prayer. It defines prayer as a conscious relationship with God that includes words, thoughts and meditation. Christian spirituality expresses intimacy with the divine through Jesus. Reformed spirituality emphasizes Scripture, openness to the Holy Spirit, creativity, intellectual grappling with faith, and the local church. Personal spirituality is developed within spiritual communities and influences how one views Christ and takes spiritual action. Developing and maintaining spiritual passion requires restoration from draining influences.

Argument and Persuasion is a somewhat more challenging rhetorica.docx
Argument and Persuasion is a somewhat more challenging rhetorical mode to employ (than description or cause and effect) because it has to function successfully on three levels simultaneously. These are called the three “Levels of Appeal.” The levels are:
Logical/rational
Moral/ethical
Emotional
Other rhetorical modes only operate on the logical/rational level. As you study READ3, notice and think about how Jefferson, Lincoln, King, and Hughes use Argumentation and Persuasion while satisfying the three “Levels of Appeal.” Then, in the discussion board

prevent movie piracy by…, etc.) and write an argumentative essay. Strive for
at least three strong
arguments
in addition to a
counterargument and refutation
(see counterargument and refutation
details in the Top Ten Tips section). Using

sentence: “The first way movie piracy hurts the economy is….” Then be sure to support that claim with
researched data.
Conclude each paragraph
with a sentence that summarizes the paragraph’s main
ideas.
Sample Thesis Statement:
Ideally, a thesis would include the major assignment objectives for the essay, which in this case would
be your claim/opinion, reasons why you have that opinion, and the counter-argument: “Movie piracy is
unethical because (add argument 1), (add argument 2), and (add argument 3), even though (add
counterargument focus).”
Note that a thorough thesis statement will include the
counterargument
in addition to your own
arguments.

Are humans experiencing microevolution due to natural selection I.docx
Are humans experiencing microevolution due to natural selection? If yes, propose an example. If no, explain why not. Cite your source(s) at the end of your post.
What is the distinction between micro and macroevolution?
Can one accept one idea and not the other? Explain your answer and cite your source(s).
If we maintain a strict biological definition of “species”, H. sapiens and H. neanderthalensis were NOT separate species as they successfully interbred.
What impact might this information have on assigning a date to the origin of humans?
Are there any other implications?
Cite your source(s) at the end of your post.
Throughout the past seven modules you have been presented with an introduction to evolutionary theory and some lines of evidence for its validity. There are many websites that purport to illustrate the falsity of evolution. Go online and research a single argument that one of these sites makes against evolution. Select one that you find interesting or support or find most plausible.
Make a post with the following components:
A) Explain the specific argument against evolutionary theory.
B) Evaluate the argument. Support or Refute it. Use citations from trusted sources to support your work.

Apply the reading on the MyArtsLab Closer Look at Édouard Manet, .docx
Apply the reading on the MyArtsLab Closer Look at “Édouard Manet,
Olympia
,” The image of Manet's "Olympia" may at first appear to be nothing more than another painting like so many using many images and symbols to depict some element of higher culture. But if one were to take the time and look at Titian's "Venus of Urbino", you would realize Manet's work is making specific reference to this painting with a strong social commentary about the morals and values of the times and the way in which poverty have taken its toll on the poor in Paris.
Art continues to be a powerful force in drawing attention to social issues. For your discussion topic, briefly identify one instance in present-day culture where an individual communicated a social message in the form of a painting, film, commercial, billboard, poster, or any other visual mode of communication. Analyze your selection and describe the visual message represented.

Volunteers: Roles and Relationships
Board Governance & Volunteer Management
ASSIGNMENT DUE SUNDAY 3/15/20 8:00 pm NEW YORK TIME
APA format 1-3 pages within the references and in paper citations
Many nonprofit organizations cannot afford to employ staff for all the work that must be done to achieve organizational goals. Volunteers, then, are often integral contributors to organizational success. In order to ensure high volunteer retention, special care must be taken to design volunteer positions that are both interesting and meaningful to the volunteer and important to the organization.
Paid staff members are usually responsible for designing and delegating work to volunteers, so the relationship between the two groups is important. Volunteers need to know they are valued and appreciated for their contribution to the overall mission of the organization. Tensions arise when paid staff regard volunteers as somehow "less than" the staff or as an impediment to their getting their work done. The goal is for there to be a working relationship that satisfies the needs and desires of both groups.
To prepare for this assignment:
Review
Chapter 4 in the course text,

. Pay close attention to the importance of staff–volunteer relationships and how integration and support of the two groups might enhance the mission of an organization.
Consider how volunteer and staff diversity might influence an organization and what strategies you might use to foster positive attitudes and relationships within your organization.
The assignment (1-3 pages):
Briefly describe a volunteer position in an organization with which you are familiar (your Final Project organization or another).
Explain the roles and tasks of this volunteer position based on the four "game characteristics" described in Chapter 4 of

Application Special Needs From a Variety of PerspectivesThroughou.docx
Application: Special Needs From a Variety of Perspectives
Throughout this course, you will be studying many topics related to children with special needs. The readings, content reviews, and Discussions will help you gain a valuable base of information. To expand your knowledge, the course Applications will offer ways to explore areas of special needs in more depth and increase your awareness of what it is like to teach and to parent a child with special needs, or to be someone who has been identified with a special need.
Before you begin the Week 1 Application, review the outline below in order to plan effectively.
Week 1: Write a Brochure on Early Intervention Services.
You will imagine yourself in the role of a Child Development Community Liaison for a nonprofit organization that provides programs related to infant/toddler healthy development. Your job is to create a brochure for infant/toddler program directors and caregivers informing them about your services.
Week 2: Interview with a Teacher or Caregiver.
You will have a choice of interviewing a teacher whose expertise is special education and who works with children ages 3–8, or a teacher or caregiver who has a child or children in his/her setting who have been identified with special needs.
Week 3: Research and Information Exchange, Part 1.
You will research a category of special needs that is of interest to you in order to gain a greater depth of knowledge.
Week 4: Research and Information Exchange, Part 2.
You will share, review, and reflect on fellow students' research on different categories of special needs.
Week 5: Interview with a Parent of a Child with Special Needs or with a Student or Adult with Special Needs.
You will have a choice of interviewing a parent or other close adult family member of a child with special needs, or a person with special needs who would like to share his or her experiences and perspectives.
Week 1: Write a Brochure on Early Intervention Services
As you have learned this week, early intervention services can include programs for infants and toddlers who may be at risk from biological or environmental issues that could lead to developmental delays or other special needs. One challenge to early intervention service providers is to ensure that they reach out and connect with families. All of the various types of infant and toddler programs in a community, including family day care homes, Early Start, faith-based programs, community organizations, can play an important role in connecting families to available early intervention services.
For your Application Assignment this week, imagine that you have been hired as a Child Development Community Liaison for a community organization called The Guidance Center Inc. In reality, this respected, not-for-profit organization serves the communities of Cambridge and Somerville in Massachusetts. As part of The Guidance Center's Early Childhood Services for ages 0–6 , their Infant-Toddler Services include four p.
Application Theoretical FrameworksEarlier weeks have focused on t.docx
Application: Theoretical Frameworks
Earlier weeks have focused on the importance of identifying and evaluating relevant scholarly literature, and then creating a synthesis that forms the literature review. In designing studies on social problems and in policy arenas, researchers build on these findings from earlier studies, often with new topics in the same or a related field, or with new populations, research design, or research methods.
This is described in your research text in the context of identifying elements to study, together with their relevance and relationships, as “investigators integrate their ideas, the observations of others, the research literature, and their own research” (O’Sullivan, Rassel, & Berner, 2008, p. 7). Just as scholarly researchers base their study designs on related research literature, so, too, must they investigate and apply various theories. Theories, in both researchers’ own and related disciplines, are built on and developed from earlier theories. In order to understand and be able to apply theories to research in public policy and administration, one must “appreciate the historical contexts through which it has developed and the cultural milieus during which important contributions were made to its body of ideas and knowledge” (Shafritz, Ott, & Jang, 2016, p. 2).
An illustration of the networks, connections, and processes among three theories in a theoretical framework will provide the visual that may help to stimulate your thinking about your work on a theoretical framework, and its relationship to your literature synthesis .
Examine the literature in your readings and search peer-reviewed journal articles, to analyze how the theoretical frameworks you are considering using have been used in other research. In 1–2 pages, justify your selection of the two theoretical frameworks you identified in this week’s Discussion. In what way are the theoretical frameworks applicable to your proposed research? Provide examples from the literature. Explain the appropriateness to public policy and administration.

Application The Civil Service SystemHow do public adminis.docx
Application: The Civil Service System
How do public administrators become public administrators? Who recruits, selects, and hires them? How are they paid, promoted, and evaluated? The civil service system is similar to the human resources (HR) department at a private organization. That is, it is concerned with all of the issues and tasks related to employment within the organization. Since the "organization" in this case is the government, there also are many differences between the civil service system and the human resources practices at most private companies. Government organizations have very specific, rigid processes for recruitment, selection, promotion, and appraisal of employees. Many of these processes have been in place since the 19th century. For example, prospective civil servants must pass exams before even being considered for a government position. This is part of the merit system, which is one of the foundational principles of the civil service system. The merit system is based on the idea that the most qualified person should fill each position, rather than a person who simply has the "right" political connections. In addition, government positions all are given a specific classification, which determines the rate of pay. Although these rules sound logical in theory, in practice they often become extremely complicated, leading to dishonesty and inefficiency. As a result, efforts at civil service reform are common and span throughout history, from the Pendleton Act of 1881, to President George W. Bush's push for competitive sourcing in 2001. In this assignment, you examine what the civil service system comprises, as well as how it might be improved.
The assignment (2–3 pages):
Due Thursday 6/11/2015
In your own words, define the civil service system.
Explain the major components of the civil service system.
Explain one way in which you might improve the civil service system.
Explain why you would choose to implement this improvement and what its positive results might be.

The university mission is a key component of the Walden experience, and throughout your program of study you will be asked to consider how you might apply what you have learned toward the "greater good" of your community.
The Application Assignment for this week is intended to focus on the mission and to encourage you to consider personal or community action you could take in order to affect meaningful change in the health of individuals in your community.
To prepare
for this Application Assignment, locate at least four organizations that contribute to the health of your own community. For each, consider how you might participate in any of their activities—how you could make a difference personally. Examples of ways that you could personally foster a change in your community include:
Buying locally grown produce
Donating food to community organizations
Building homes for the underprivileged
Volunteering at an after-school program
To complete
this Application Assignment, write a
1- to 2-page paper
that includes the following:
A list of the four organizations you located. Describe the mission or purpose of each. (Some examples or organizations and non-profits are listed in the website area).
Select one of the organizations for which you might like to volunteer or make some kind of contribution. Then describe the type(s) of personal actions you could take, with the support of the organization, to contribute to your community. Explain why you chose these particular actions and how this involvement aligns with Walden’s mission.
If you are already involved in community service activities, name and describe the organization with which you work. Also explain how you contribute to the organization’s activities.
Note
: The purpose of this Application is to encourage you to begin thinking about what you might do to contribute to your community. You are not required to volunteer or take part in any activities. The objective is to begin thinking about ways you could apply the Walden mission.
Be sure to support your work with specific citations from this week's Learning Resources and additional scholarly sources as appropriate. Refer to the

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

How to Manage Reception Report in Odoo 17
A business may deal with both sales and purchases occasionally. They buy things from vendors and then sell them to their customers. Such dealings can be confusing at times. Because multiple clients may inquire about the same product at the same time, after purchasing those products, customers must be assigned to them. Odoo has a tool called Reception Report that can be used to complete this assignment. By enabling this, a reception report comes automatically after confirming a receipt, from which we can assign products to orders.
