Library Newsletter
eReader Updates Now is a great opportunity to take a look at your unit eReaders in Moodle and think about what new material could be added to them, or what old material could be removed to keep them up to date with the most relevant and useful information for your students. Portions of many of the new books included in the Library Newsletter over the last year would be great to have in your eReader. Previous editions of the Library Newsletter can be found in P:/Library/Library Newsletters/2014 so you can remind yourself of the great new titles acquired by the Library this year. Please review your unit eReaders and submit any new inclusions, removals or other changes to Kerrie ASAP so they can be ready for the first day of classes in 2015…

This unique study proposes a biblically-based model as the first alternative to a ‘spiritual warfare’ framework for dealing with the demonic, thus providing insights for preaching, counseling and missiology. 235.4 WAR Effective Pastoring: giving vision, direction, and care to your church / Lawrence. This text answers such practical questions as: What are the essential ingredients for pastoral authority? What steps can a pastor take to avoid pastor-elder conflicts?
