This document discusses religion and sports from sociological perspectives. It explains that from a social constructionist view, religions and sports are cultural practices that are socially constructed and take different forms based on social and historical contexts. They are not essential or unchanging, but rather are defined and practiced in ways that reflect the social conditions in which they exist. The document provides examples of how Protestant values were linked to the development of capitalism, demonstrating how religions can influence and be influenced by broader social and economic forces.

The document explores perspectives on whether sports can be considered a type of popular religion or if they are completely separate spheres.
Many people have grown weary of athletes proclaiming their Christian faith in ways that seem to trivialize religion or offend others. While banning religion from sports is not possible, more thought needs to be given to establishing a more appropriate expression of faith. However, politics, particularly of the Christian Right, have significantly influenced the relationship between religion and sports without consideration of other faiths. There are also concerns about the commercialization of college sports compromising educational values and whether attributing athletic success solely to God is theological overreach.
This document discusses why Muslims should not participate in or celebrate Christmas. It provides three main reasons:

While some evidence points to secularization in Britain like decreasing church membership and attendance, other evidence shows religion still plays a role in society. Church membership in Britain decreased from around 28% in 1860-1910 to 12% in 2005, but religious programs still have large audiences. Additionally, new religious movements have grown and non-Christian religions are increasing in membership.

The document discusses the decline in membership of mainline Christian churches in Canada between 1961 and 2010. It notes that the United Church of Canada lost 39% of its members and the Anglican Church lost 53% of its members during this period. Several quotes from church officials indicate many congregations are shrinking and less than half expect to still be operating within 15 years. The document contrasts the "old religion" model of a separate church and world with a devotional focus on worship, with a emerging "new spirituality" that is less formally expressed and exists outside traditional churches. It suggests the church could renew itself by focusing on nature, using new language that reconnects to spiritual themes, and building community through relationships and a common search for

Collective Worship In A Church School ContextV Black
The document discusses collective worship in a church school context. It notes that worship lies at the heart of Christianity and transforms individuals and communities. For school contexts, collective worship should be wholly Christian, though not all students and leaders are Christian.

It also needs main ingredients like Bible stories and key themes, as well as time for reflection, prayer, and pupil participation.

The size of Lutheran churches can vary regionally depending on the concentration of Lutherans in an area.
The document discusses the relationship between gospel, culture, and the church. It outlines three aspects of how the gospel relates to culture: it is transmitted through culture, transcends culture, and transforms culture. The gospel-culture dialogue primarily occurs within the church as it encounters and is shaped by the gospel's claims, and as the church embodies the gospel for others in its culture. The church's engagement with culture can occur on three levels - individual, surface culture (customs and practices), and deep culture (underlying worldviews). While changes may happen at the surface level, long-lasting change requires targeting the deepest level of culture. The goal of Christian mission is to establish the upside-down kingdom of God that overturns

Factors affecting undergraduate students’ motivation at a university in Tra VinhAJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: Motivation plays an important role in foreign language learning process. This study aimed to
investigate student’s motivation patterns towards English language learning at a University in Tra Vinh, and factors
affecting their motivation change toward English language learning of non-English-major students in the semester.
The researcher used semi-structured interview at the first phase of choosing the participants and writing reflection
through the instrument called “My English Learning Motivation History” adapted from Sawyer (2007) to collect
qualitative data within 15 weeks. The participants consisted of nine first year non-English-major students who learning
General English at pre-intermediate level. They were chosen and divided into three groups of three members each
(high motivation group; average motivation group; and low motivation group). The results of the present study
identified six visual motivation patterns of three groups of students with different motivation fluctuation, through the
use of cluster analysis. The study also indicated a diversity of factors affecting students’ motivation involving internal
factors as influencing factors (cognitive, psychology, and emotion) and external factors as social factors (instructor,
peers, family, and learning environment) during English language learning in a period of 15 weeks. The findings of
the study helped teacher understand relationship of motivation change and its influential factors. Furthermore, the
findings also inspired next research about motivation development in learning English process.
