Music is one of the most precious gifts God has ever given to His creation. For believers, music has been designed as a sonic offering of honor and praise to our amazing God. Those who have been called to music ministry have been given an enormous blessing as well as an enormous responsibility. As singers and musicians, it''s easy to get caught up in perfect execution, flawless notes and dazzling technique. But what truly impresses God are clean hands and a pure heart. Live The Life You Sing About reminds those of us who are called to music ministry about our First Love and the importance of living a life pleasing to Him. Whether you''ve been called to music ministry at your local church as a worship leader or choir member or to the national or international stage of the Christian or Gospel music industry, God has placed reminders in His word for His children, including His minstrels and psalmists, that speak to what really matters to Him. Inspired through revelation, Live The Life You Sing About shares the heart of God to those who have been called to carry His presence in the earth. This book is a mixture of spiritual perspectives from an author with a life-long love for God and practical insight from an insider with 20 years in the music business. Through the pages of Live The Life You Sing About, you will delve into the purpose of music in the church, how sacred singers and musicians should handle their emotions, ways to ensure you have hired the right team and even how to get funding for your next project.

Cross-Border Networks in Writing Studies coordinates mixed methods approaches to survey, interview, and case study data to study Canadian writing studies scholars. The authors argue for networked disciplinarity, the notion that ideas arise and flow through intellectual networks that connect scholars not only to one another but to widening networks of human and nonhuman actors. Although the Canadian field is historically rooted in the themes of location and national culture, expressing a tension between Canadian independence and dependence on the US field, more recent research suggests a more hybridized North American scholarship rather than one defined in opposition to “rhetoric and composition” in the US. In tracing identities, roles, and rituals of nationally bound considerations of how disciplinarity has been constructed through distant and close methods, this multi-scaled, multi-scopic approach examines the texture of interdependent constructions of the Canadian discipline. Cross-Border Networks in Writing Studies also launches a collaborative publishing network between Canadian publisher Inkshed and US publisher Parlor Press.

Based on the real life story of a little-known figure in the Civil Rights Movement: a white social worker who left the comforts of her life in New York City to travel to the segregated South, comes BEV, a fictionalized account of the strength, compassion, and dangers people faced in their fight to help African Americans achieve equality. After watching the horrifying images of dogs, hoses, and violence on March 7, 1965 a.k.a Bloody Sunday, Bev Luther, a white Northerner, determined she could no longer afford to remain a spectator. As a social worker, she knew she was needed to help and march alongside African Americans, Asians, and Latinos in the quest for equality. Along with several other Northerners—mostly whites—she decided to travel down to the tense segregated South right in the middle of an era that would change America forever. With a clear understanding of history and evocative language, BEV is the fictionalized account of those who answered the call to help their fellow citizens earn the right to vote.

From a murder charge to the San Diego Chargers—defensive back Jimmy Wilson spent more than two years in jail before he was acquitted of murder. In this motivational coming-of-age memoir, he shares the inspiring story of how faith in God and the love of his family helped him turn his life around and achieve his NFL dreams. Jimmy Wilson knew he shouldn’t have gone to his Aunt Opal’s house on the eve of his return to the University of Montana, where he was a star football player and preseason candidate for All-American. But when he learned her partner had badly beaten her, his primary concern was for the safety of her and her two young children. Growing up a biracial kid in the San Diego projects, Wilson was always fighting. Kids tested him, and he relied on his physical prowess. Tussling with his aunt’s abuser on the lawn of her home, trying to defend himself from the man’s gun, Wilson was in his element—until a shot accidentally rang out, changing the game. Wilson was labeled a murderer, and his football dreams all but faded. The next two years in jail opened his eyes to another world. When he was finally acquitted, he felt adrift back in his old neighborhood. But through his faith and the support of those who believed in him, Wilson made it back to Montana and eventually to the NFL. This is his uplifting story of growing from a boy to a man and how one bad decision that threatened to end his life became a catalyst for complete transformation.

Europeans, Africans, and American Indians practiced slavery long before the first purchase of a captive African by a white land-owner in the American colonies; that, however, is the image of slavery most prevalent in the minds of Americans today. This Very Short Introduction begins with the Portuguese capture of Africans in the 1400s and traces the development of American slavery until its abolition following the Civil War. Historian Heather Andrea Williams draws upon the rich recent scholarship of numerous highly-regarded academics as well as an analysis of primary documents to explore the history of slavery and its effects on the American colonies and later the United States of America. Williams examines legislation that differentiated American Indians and Africans from Europeans as the ideology of white supremacy flourished and became an ingrained feature of the society. These laws reflected the contradiction of America''s moral and philosophical ideology that valorized freedom on one hand and justified the enslavement of a population deemed inferior on another. She explores the tense and often violent relationships between the enslaved and the enslavers, and between abolitionists and pro-slavery advocates as those who benefited from the institution fought to maintain and exert their power. Williams is attentive to the daily labors that enslaved people performed, reminding readers that slavery was a system of forced labor with economic benefits that produced wealth for a new nation, all the while leaving an indelible mark on its history.

[Truncated abstract] Cerebral Palsy (CP) is one of the most common childhood physical disabilities in the world1. The associated impairments of CP often encompass all components of functioning. Spasticity and muscle weakness are two major motor impairments associated with CP. Botulinum Neurotoxin Type-A (BoNT-A) is a common treatment for spasticity management with many reported functional benefits; however muscle weakness and muscle atrophy have been linked with BoNT-A treatment. Children with CP are already predisposed to decrements in muscle strength and size, therefore any treatment potentially leading to further weakening and atrophy of the muscle should be well understood. This doctorate is written as a series of papers each adding to the understanding of the effects of BoNT-A and strength training in children with CP. The opening paper presented in this thesis is the first known documentation of the morphological alterations of spastic muscle to BoNT-A, alongside information on alterations in muscle strength and functional ability. Ten boys and five girls with spastic diplegia, aged 5-12 years and classified as Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) level I-II were recruited from the Cerebral Palsy Mobility Service in Perth, Australia, and were assessed before and (approximately 5weeks) after BoNT-A. Outcome measures included isometric dynamometry assessing muscle strength, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) to measure muscle volume, and the Timed-Up and Go (TUG) test and the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT) to assess functional walking capacity. This paper uncovered documented muscle atrophy in BoNT-A injected muscles and hypertrophy of synergist muscles. However, atrophy of the injected muscle was relatively minor compared to evidence provided in animal studies and appeared to have no negative impact on muscle function. Given that the single treatment of BoNT-A did have an effect on muscle morphology, a logical progression of treatment planning would be to combine both BoNT-A treatment (for spasticity management) and strength training (for muscular weakness) to target both impairments simultaneously. The second, third and fourth paper of this thesis aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the combined effect of BoNT-A treatment and a home based strength training intervention. A secondary aim of this thesis is to determine the best practice in terms of timing of application of a strength training intervention in relation to reception of BoNT-A for children with CP. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) is utilised by health professionals as best practice for a holistic approach to the management of people with disabilities, and is applied throughout this thesis to assess outcomes of the combined interventions of BoNT-A and strength training. The study design, dictated by current clinical care, utilised a repeated measures cross-comparison design. The fifteen children (aged 5-12 years, GMFCS I-II) recruited in this study completed four assessments over 6months timed around receipt of BoNT-A treatment. Children in the study were block randomised by age, gender and GMFCS level into either a PRE or POST BoNT-A strength training group...

In this previously untold story of African American self-education, Heather Andrea Williams moves across time to examine African Americans'' relationship to literacy during slavery, during the Civil War, and in the first decades of freedom. Self-Taught traces the historical antecedents to freedpeople''s intense desire to become literate and demonstrates how the visions of enslaved African Americans emerged into plans and action once slavery ended. Enslaved people, Williams contends, placed great value in the practical power of literacy, whether it was to enable them to read the Bible for themselves or to keep informed of the abolition movement and later the progress of the Civil War. Some slaves devised creative and subversive means to acquire literacy, and when slavery ended, they became the first teachers of other freedpeople. Soon overwhelmed by the demands for education, they called on northern missionaries to come to their aid. Williams argues that by teaching, building schools, supporting teachers, resisting violence, and claiming education as a civil right, African Americans transformed the face of education in the South to the great benefit of both black and white southerners.

La Queste del Saint Graal is one of the best-known and most important of the medieval Grail Romances, being the first text to portray the character of Galahad the «perfect» knight, and the earliest extant version of the tale to attempt to fuse the dual tradition associated with the Grail: pseudo-Celtic and Christian. However, it is often considered a difficult text, containing passages of dense metaphor and a seemingly disjointed plot. This study explains the link between metaphor and structure within the text, by means of detailed analysis of certain key sections of the narrative, showing how the author has carefully constructed a hierarchy of characters. What also emerges is that the author places the reader in a position analogous to that of the questing knights, struggling to understand the adventures with which they are presented, and able to do so insofar as they have grasped the symbolic significance of earlier events in the story. The literary technique of structuring a text by means of metaphor is employed not only in La Queste del Saint Graal, but is characteristic of much medieval narrative: thus this analysis has implications for the interpretation of other examples of the genre.
