Although many of these principles can be used cross-culturally, I chose to research and write specifically in the African-American context because this is my cultural background. There is such a great need for ways, strategies, and ideas that will decrease the divorce rate in this community. The problem with a strict post-modern view is its inability to respond to the enormous amount of hurting family systems in dire need of healing. I strongly believe that marriages and families can improve greatly given the right tools and information. The most effective for clergy and counselors alike in this post-modern era is the model that combines psychological theories with biblical principles. This is the equation for successful outcomes in marriage and families."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["31b95ee0-a31c-43dc-8ec9-d97b30239a2d"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["public","work_editor"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791130695549059072,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T07:35:41.672Z","score":1.0},{"system_create_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:22:01Z","system_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T07:49:23Z","has_model_ssim":["Etd"],"id":"87804863-1866-4d23-80b2-df2fa53d78c2","accessControl_ssim":["02a0a0c7-329d-4dd7-8c25-6722016bb844"],"depositor_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"depositor_tesim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"title_tesim":["Effective cooperation between modality and sodality structure in north India: a case study of Bharat Susamachar Samiti, New Theological College and Christian Evangelistic Assemblies in historical perspective"],"date_uploaded_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:22:00Z","date_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T02:07:18Z","isPartOf_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8"],"hasEmbargo_ssim":["e14ef44d-efee-457a-b44e-896e6404c1ac"],"hasLease_ssim":["7e577d42-09bc-4594-afa7-778eef42a8fd"],"show_pdf_viewer_tesim":["1"],"show_pdf_download_button_tesim":["1"],"institution_tesim":["Atla RIM"],"degree_tesim":["Unknown"],"degree_granting_institution_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"advisor_tesim":["Timothy C Tennent"],"year_tesim":["2011"],"location_tesim":["India"],"resource_type_tesim":["Unknown"],"types_tesim":["Text"],"creator_tesim":["George K Chavanikamannil"],"publisher_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"subject_tesim":["Christian Evangelistic Assemblies (India)","New Theological College (Dehra Dun, India)","Religious education--Philosophy","Missions--Social aspects","Evangelistic work","Home missions","Religious education","Bharat Susamachar Samiti (Organization : Dehra Dun, India)"],"language_tesim":["English"],"abstract_tesim":["India has always been a challenge to Christian missions. With 1.2 billion people who belong to 4,693 ethnic groups and speak more than 400 languages it still is home to the largest number of unreached people groups in the world. The greatest need that the Indian church faces in the 21st century is for large numbers of dedicated and well-trained servant-leaders to serve the existing congregations and to reach the remaining unreached people groups and languages with the gospel. It is widely recognized that the prevalent dominant paradigm of training has many weaknesses that are adversely affecting the health of the church. This study looks at the ministries of a modality and sodality (Christian Evangelistic Assemblies and Bharat Susamachar Samiti/New Theological College) that have been closely working together with some success for more than two decades in northern India to learn principles that might help to alleviate these weaknesses. At first we briefly look at the history of the church and theological education in India. Then we look at the way the modality and sodality have worked together. From these we have chosen six principles which we believe are keys in alleviating the weaknesses of the prevalent existing paradigm of theological education/Christian leadership training."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["31b95ee0-a31c-43dc-8ec9-d97b30239a2d"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["work_editor","public"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791131559584071680,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T07:49:25.680Z","score":1.0},{"system_create_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:21:35Z","system_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T08:10:14Z","has_model_ssim":["Etd"],"id":"efa144bf-0564-42c6-b77f-f9c3cd5c6971","accessControl_ssim":["81f1f020-1c47-4a05-a98e-b3958a5d0e15"],"depositor_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"depositor_tesim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"title_tesim":["Recommunicating biblical narrative to post-literate Salvation Army congregations"],"date_uploaded_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:21:34Z","date_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T04:58:27Z","isPartOf_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8"],"hasEmbargo_ssim":["e3c8b255-63cf-4caa-8fad-69e01614cb38"],"hasLease_ssim":["aedf51d8-0fef-481f-a4d5-70946eae31a9"],"show_pdf_viewer_tesim":["1"],"show_pdf_download_button_tesim":["1"],"institution_tesim":["Atla RIM"],"degree_tesim":["Unknown"],"degree_granting_institution_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"advisor_tesim":["Jeffrey Arthurs"],"year_tesim":["2011"],"resource_type_tesim":["Unknown"],"types_tesim":["Text"],"creator_tesim":["Carl E Carvill"],"keyword_tesim":["Preaching, Salvation Army"],"publisher_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"subject_tesim":["Rhetoric","Mass media and culture","Expository preaching","Communication--Religious aspects--Christianity","Narrative theology"],"language_tesim":["English"],"abstract_tesim":["When William Booth founded the Salvation Army in 1860, he implemented innovative preaching and worship styles. They remain in use today. This thesis-project argues that the changing ecology of communication demands that Salvation Army preachers adapt to the current communications environment. The theology and praxis of revivalism remain malleable enough to serve the present age, and the grace reflected in the Army's social work outreach is easily understood, but a style of preaching stuck in Victorian rhetorical convention is ineffective. This thesis-project surveys the history of preaching within the Salvation Army and alternative ways to portray Scripture to listeners attuned to the electronic post-everything age. Research elicited feed forward and feed back survey responses from a congregation to whom a Salvation Army minister delivered sermons in modern style. The author concludes that training Salvation Army preachers to recommunicate biblical narrative effectively will enable them to communicate better to post-literate Salvation Army congregations."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["31b95ee0-a31c-43dc-8ec9-d97b30239a2d"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["public","work_editor"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791132875079286784,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T08:10:20.234Z","score":1.0},{"system_create_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:21:25Z","system_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T07:42:06Z","has_model_ssim":["Etd"],"id":"664ddc99-dd95-42db-b087-090c6d2937ec","accessControl_ssim":["dd6d47d2-11c7-45cc-ab2e-acfc1bc8914f"],"depositor_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"depositor_tesim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"title_tesim":["Equipping site pastors within multi-site congregations"],"date_uploaded_dtsi":"2023-10-12T16:21:24Z","date_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T01:07:23Z","isPartOf_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8"],"hasEmbargo_ssim":["5a847635-bc9a-4e1e-a041-973d2bec4d0e"],"hasLease_ssim":["f64d7475-bf05-4a25-b94a-a5a10e0e5586"],"show_pdf_viewer_tesim":["1"],"show_pdf_download_button_tesim":["1"],"institution_tesim":["Atla RIM"],"degree_tesim":["Unknown"],"degree_granting_institution_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"advisor_tesim":["Sid Buzzell","Haddon W Robinson"],"year_tesim":["2011"],"resource_type_tesim":["Unknown"],"types_tesim":["Text"],"creator_tesim":["Jason D Bunger"],"publisher_tesim":["Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary"],"subject_tesim":["Leadership--Religious aspects--Christianity","Multi-site churches","Church management","Church group work"],"language_tesim":["English"],"abstract_tesim":["The aim of this project is to equip teaching pastors in multi-site congregations to preach live messages at each individual site that are consistent with the biblical text, congruent with one another and contextualized for the local venue.

The purpose of the thesis entitled 'Revitalization and Reconciliation of Worship in the Southern District Convocation of the United Church of America' give you an idea the authors desire to aid in revitalization and restoration of worship within the United Holy Church so that a practical theology of worship can be developed, incorporating traditional devotional-style worship and contemporary-style praise and worship.

American culture has made it difficult for people to keep Sabbath, and the discipline required to stand up against the culture has greatly diminished. The author included biblical study, theological research, work with a small group undertaking the challenge of keeping Sabbath together, and a plan for further teaching for a specific congregation on keeping Sabbath.
