The Gift Of Evangelism And Its Relationship To Evangelism, Larry Gilbert

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

Possibly the greatest contribution the Church Growth Movement has made to spiritual gifts is recognizing and properly defining the gift of evangelism. Understanding this gift is imperative to understanding the relationship of spiritual gifts to church growth.

The Future Of Denominational Research: Souther Baptist Research Fellowship, Larry L. Mcswain

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

Denominational researchers must focus on their unique role in relation to the role of other researchers. Our future as competent and effective researchers is dependent on our ability to keep up with the technology available to us. We must develop and maintain networks among researchers to avoid duplication of effort and create adequate sharing of what we know. We must also find ways to include the most difficult research subjects in our efforts. Moreover, if our calling is to have any meaning we must have the kinds of relationships and influence with decision makers that the information we have will …

Megachurches: High-Impact Ministries, John N. Vaughan

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

This paper analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of megachurches.

The Prime Time Plus (+) Megachurch, Kenn Sanders

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

I have found that churches which were having three or four services on Sunday morning immediately increased their attendance by 20% after building new facilities on their present site. These new facilities enabled them to have two prime time services between 9 A.M. and noon. Services during these hours are found to be more desirable to members, and they allow for a better distribution of workers. (Versatility is the key in today's church.) Two services are good stewardship of time and money.

Intervention Aimed At Conference-Wide Church Growth, Steven L. Todd

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

In 1987, the Nebraska Conference of the United Methodist Church began an ambitious process aimed at reversing its two decade membership decline. Contracting with Church Growth, Inc., headed by Dr. Win Am, the conference's newly created Church Growth Committee introduced to its 432 congregations in the state an enterprise labeled "Daring a New Harvest." The plan consisted of an introductory Basic Growth Seminar, followed by a three-and-a-half year process called Love in Action (LIA).

Where Has All The Commitment Gone, Harold Westing

Journal of the American Society for Church Growth

Two contemporary sociologists, Allan Bloom (The Closing of the American Mind) and Robert Bellah (Habits of the Heart: Individualism and Commitment in American Life), focus our attention to the growing problems in America brought about by our often individualistic and uncommitted values. Christian leadership struggles to find ways to bring Christians to a serious commitment to Christ.

Doing Research And Writing About It: Suggestions For Financial Aid Administrators, Jerry Sheehan Davis

Journal of Student Financial Aid

This article describes important reasons why financial aid administrators should do more research, and offers suggestions for writing research reports. The article was adapted from a presentation given at the 1991 NASFAA National Conference.

Workable Models For Institutional Research On The Impact Of Student Financial Aid, Edward P. St. John

Journal of Student Financial Aid

In spite of recent progress in national studies of the impact of student financial aid, there are still many ambiguities about whether student financial aid has a measurable effect at the institutional level. This paper proposes models and suggests methodologies that institutions can use to conduct their own research on the impact of student financial aid, using existing data sources. Student financial aid administrators can, and should, play an integral role in such research because their student aid expertise can be valuable in formulating research questions and interpreting research findings. Well-designed and executed institutional research on the effect of student …

Taking Concerns Beyond The Campus: Statewide Evaluation Of Student Financial Aid Administration, Cheryl D. Blanco, Michael Rao

Journal of Student Financial Aid

This article examines the administration of student financial aid programs at institutional and state levels. Drawing on the results of a project in Florida, the authors argue that a statewide evaluation involving institutional financial aid administrators, system-level individuals, and others may promote changes beneficial to students and administrators. Particular emphasis is given to the role that institutional financial aid administrators can play in a participatory state-level review process.

Acting On Their Own Behalf: Affiliation And Political Mobilization Among Homeless People, Marcia B. Cohen, David Wagner

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Homeless people have been portrayed in the literature as passive, isolated, and unable to act on their own behalf. The authors discuss the findings of an ethnographic study of homeless activists which challenge the stereotypical view of homeless people as disaffiliated and disempowered. Collective social action was found to have a long term impact on access to material resources, development of social networks, and construction of positive homeless identity.

Entrepreneurial Activities Of Homeless Men, Steven Balkin

The Journal of Sociology & Social Welfare

Encouraging and assisting homeless people to become self-employed provides a way for some of them to increase their incomes, and may help close the gap between the cost of housing and labor market earnings. A survey of operators of homeless shelters was conducted to determine the types of work activities that adult homeless men participate in. Self-employment was found to be a common activity for a substantial proportion of adult homeless men; and a preferred mode of employment for many. Advantages and disadvantages of such an approach are discussed. Several program models are described which can be used to enhance …

Why Fiscal Policies Matter In African Countries, M. O. Ojo, T. O. Okunrounmu

Economic and Financial Review

The paper discusses the critical role of fiscal policy in developing African economies. While it is accepted that fiscal management is one of the important functions of a modern state, the nature of the fiscal management in a specific environment determines, to a large extent, the overall effect of such intervention. The Nigerian experience indicates a very narrow revenue base that could not withstand the weight of public expenditure and investment.

Developments In The Insurance Industry In Nigeria In 1990, Central Bank Of Nigeria Cbn
