Leadership Skills Development In Theological Seminary: Crucial Factors In Creating Effective Local Church Leadership, Nghia Van Nguyen Jan 2008

Leadership Skills Development In Theological Seminary: Crucial Factors In Creating Effective Local Church Leadership, Nghia Van Nguyen

Theses and Dissertations

Leadership is a challenge for almost every organization. Like everyone else, the church is faced with similar challenges.

Previous researchers have stated that there is compelling evidence that many theological seminaries were not appropriately preparing men and women for the job the local congregation expects them to do for the church.

Client Perceptions Of The Most And Least Helpful Aspects Of Couple Therapy, Jessica Nelson

Theses and Dissertations

Couple therapy research has traditionally utilized either quantitative or qualitative methods to examine the mechanisms of change and outcomes in couple therapy.

Two hundred ten individual responses were obtained from a sample of 134 couples who sought Traditional Behavioral Couple Therapy (TBCT) or Integrative Behavioral Couple Therapy (IBCT) for marital distress as part …
