The document discusses working with concepts of difference and sameness in delivering support services. It emphasizes the importance of understanding service users' cultural backgrounds and experiences with oppression. The speaker argues that support should help users explore their racial and cultural identities, provide multi-lingual staff, and involve the black community as experts in service delivery and review. Understanding racial identity development frameworks can help ensure appropriate referrals and value a diversity of services.

The value of diversity in groups and society is continually debated. Its benefits and challenges are

CLASSMATE’S DISCUSSION
What kinds of diversity do you believe strengthens a group or organization?
There are many elements to discuss when you're talking about diversity. In a workplace
there are strengths and weaknesses that can help an organization, so it is imperative to
have a diverse work team that work well with each and listen to others' opinions. I am
pondering over this question and what comes to mind is that cultural diversity in a team
or group is beneficial and important, especially when it comes to teamwork.
Researching this from [Kahn,2015], which states, " Having cultural diversity in a team
does improve performance, particularly where creativity, problem-solving, and decision-
making skills are concerned". It is also important to have other elements of diversity,
such as ages, different types of skill sets, and of experience, and with all these
contributing factors the team will remain strong.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having a diverse work team?
When your apart of a diverse work team it starts with the training when your strengths
and weaknesses are exploited, such as your temperament, thinking and learning styles,
as well as what will be required of you within the team. The most noticeable down fall of
diversity in a team is social stress, trust, conflict, and communication. This can be a
disadvantage to the team if a member is suffering from these psychological conditions,
[Kahn, 2015].
Diversity in a workplace is very challenging and ongoing but everyone is capable of
learning and receive the fruits of their labor so building a positive work environment,
trust, teamwork, good communication skills, and solving problems is the glue to holding a
team together, [Your Career, 2022].

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…
