Integrating African American Veterans Into Church Life: The Impact Of Urban Neo-Tribalism At Olivet Church, Dennis Allen Rose Jr. Aug 2025

Integrating African American Veterans Into Church Life: The Impact Of Urban Neo-Tribalism At Olivet Church, Dennis Allen Rose Jr.

Doctoral Dissertations and Projects

African American veterans at Olivet Baptist Church attended worship services but did not participate in broader church activities. Many remained disconnected except during annual recognition events. This project was developed to address that gap. The Veteran Re-engagement Module (VRM) was delivered through six small group sessions. It focused on helping veterans talk through their past experiences, explore how those experiences affected their faith, and reconnect with the church. The approach centered around Scripture, group conversation, and spiritual storytelling. To evaluate its impact, data came through before-and-after surveys, individual interviews, and session notes. Twelve veterans participated. Some said this was the …

Re-Imagine Paradise: The Impacts Of The Illegal Annexation Of Hawai'i & Tourism On Native Hawaiians, Paige Edwards Aug 2025

Re-Imagine Paradise: The Impacts Of The Illegal Annexation Of Hawai'i & Tourism On Native Hawaiians, Paige Edwards

SMU Journal of Undergraduate Research

This literature review presents a vital exploration of colonialism, the illegal annexation of Hawai’i, and the subsequent emergence of the tourism industry as a neocolonial enterprise. Neocolonialism is the process of colonial dominance through modern exploitation, which is masked through economic opportunities and has left territories and their native people dependent on it. By tracing the major historical events in Hawai’i highlights how education was a vital aspect of Native Hawaiian culture, empowering its people - a stark contrast to the current education system where the education system perpetuates the commodification of Native Hawaiian culture. Education has played a pivotal …


Unrealistic And Symbolic Significations In Visual Arts, Abdelraheem Awad Aug 2025

Unrealistic And Symbolic Significations In Visual Arts, Abdelraheem Awad

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

The desecration of nature and its incapacity lead to the creation of new forms and subjects unparalleled in the natural world. We must establish a close connection between myths, ideas, dreams, self-restraint, and conceptions of unrealistic art when addressing new shapes and methods. The artist, through their vision, engages with these artistic elements in their work, regardless of output style. Unrealism in visual art refers to a detachment from visual reality and a departure from convention, embodying the strange by restructuring elements of visual reality into forms completely different from their origins. These outputs align with the concept of plastic …


Reflections Of Political Rejection In The Poetry Of Jordanian Poet Ayman Al-Otoum, Jalila Sharifi, Rasoul Balavi, Moslem Zamani Aug 2025

Reflections Of Political Rejection In The Poetry Of Jordanian Poet Ayman Al-Otoum, Jalila Sharifi, Rasoul Balavi, Moslem Zamani

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

Protest in literature means to confront and rebel against various issues. This manifests itself in literature, especially in poetry. Poets, through their protest poetry and various purposes, remind the reader of the deceptive elements that attract attention, enlighten society, and provide exceptional value to protest in their work. The Jordanian poet Ayman Al-Otoum is one of the poets who has addressed the issue of protest. One of the most noteworthy features of Al-Otoum's poetry is its protest aspect. In this research, we study the reflection of protest in Ayman Al-Otoum's poetry. This study helps us recognize the most important protest …

The Impact Of A Drama-Based Instructional Program On The Speaking Performance Of Jordanian Efl Learners, Nesreen Ja'afreh, Dina Al-Jamal

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

This study examines the effect of a drama-based role-play instructional program on the speaking performance of EFL Jordanian ninth-grade students. It aims to determine whether there are any statistically significant differences in students' speaking performance attributed to the drama-based instructional program (specifically, the role-play technique) in the post-test mean scores. A total of 40 participants were randomly assigned to two groups: the control group and the experimental group at That Rass Secondary School for Girls in the Southern Almazar Directorate of Education, Jordan, during the second semester of the academic year 2017-2018. For data collection, a pre/post speaking test and …


Ibn Al-Adim's Defense Of The Doctrine Of Abu Ala Al-Maari, Hanaa Abu Al-Rub Aug 2025

Ibn Al-Adim's Defense Of The Doctrine Of Abu Ala Al-Maari, Hanaa Abu Al-Rub

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

This study investigates and analyzes Ibn Al-Adim's book entitled "Al-Insaf wa Tahari fi Dafa' Al-Dhulm wa Al-Tajari 'an Abi Al-Alaa Al-Ma'arri" (588-660 H). This source is the only available classified book dedicated to discussing the controversial issue raised by early critics regarding Abi Al-Alaa Al-Ma'arri's doctrine. However, the loss of some parts of the book hinders confirming with certainty whether Ibn Al-Adim achieved his objectives in writing this book. Yet, the parts we have confirm the author's positive attitude toward Al-Ma'arri's faith and ensure the validity of his religious beliefs. In this book, Ibn Al-Adim also responds to several suspicions …

Animated Graphic Advertising And Its Effectiveness On The Internet, Ahmed Morsy

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

This study explores animated graphic advertising, including its graphic elements such as photographs, shapes, texts, and drawings that overlap partially or completely. It creates dynamic movements accompanied by audio levels. The design relies on the senses of hearing and sight, providing a technical format that can attract attention and stimulate the interest of the audience, preparing them mentally to receive the advertisement message and be convinced of its content, ultimately leading to a positive response. Furthermore, it contributes to promoting the commercial viability of goods and services. Today, the internet is the most modern means of communication, offering several significant …


From Student To Teacher: Lgbtq+ Pre-Service Teachers’ Physical Education Experiences, Alexandra L. Stoddart, Niya St. Amant Aug 2025

From Student To Teacher: Lgbtq+ Pre-Service Teachers’ Physical Education Experiences, Alexandra L. Stoddart, Niya St. Amant

Journal of Queer and Trans Studies in Education

The first phase of an explanatory sequential design explored Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer or Questioning (LGBTQ+) pre-service teachers’ retrospective experiences from primary and secondary school (K-12) physical education, as well as their physical education experiences in one post-secondary institution. Ahmed’s (2006; 2010) interpretation of orientation was invoked as a conceptual consideration. Quantitative results from the cross-sectional online survey indicated that K-12 physical education remains an unsafe and uncomfortable learning space for many LGBTQ+ students for a myriad of reasons. Conventional qualitative content analysis generated four categories about K-12 class pedagogy and structure, gender and sexuality, change rooms, and the …


The Poetics Of Color In The Poetry Of Al-Sanoubari, Ishaq Rahmani, Daoud Najati Aug 2025

The Poetics Of Color In The Poetry Of Al-Sanoubari, Ishaq Rahmani, Daoud Najati

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

At the beginning, there was essentially no discrepancy between poetry and prose. Poems were merely rhythmic words used to guide camels, devoid of any ambiguity or complexity, making it easy for readers to grasp their content. However, over time, the concepts within poetry expanded, and their rhythm and meter multiplied. As a result, their clarity and simplicity were diminished. Poets exerted their utmost effort, often spending a year or more refining their poems to elevate them to high ranks of elegance and glory. Color and its various types became one of the best methods poets employed to enhance their works. …

Spending In Islam: Nurturing And Education, Sereen Ashour, “Mohammad Adnan” Al-Aishat, Abdullah Hardan, Yousef Saadeh Aug 2025

Spending In Islam: Nurturing And Education, Sereen Ashour, “Mohammad Adnan” Al-Aishat, Abdullah Hardan, Yousef Saadeh

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

Islam urges its followers to spend on their parents, offspring, and lineage. This paper addresses spending in the way of Islam for its protection (preserving its authenticity), advocacy (Da’wah), and to support its adherents against those who manifest enmity towards it. Thus, spending aims to instill in Muslims the practice of giving for the sake of their faith and to educate them about the principles of this type of spending. Da’wah to Islam has been associated with calls to spend in the way of Allah to seek His satisfaction and pleasure. Even before the establishment of an Islamic state, or …


The Role Of The Prophetic Sunnah In Achieving Internal Security And Guiding Weaponry: A Foundational Study, Kayed Qaroush Aug 2025

The Role Of The Prophetic Sunnah In Achieving Internal Security And Guiding Weaponry: A Foundational Study, Kayed Qaroush

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

The security of society is a divine blessing that can only be truly appreciated by those who are deprived of it. Observing the conditions of our Arab and Islamic world, one can recognize that many states are suffering from the agony of internal and external wars, as well as a lack of security and safety. Therefore, in addressing the political crises that sweep through the Muslim world, particularly between rulers and their people, it is essential to resort to the Prophetic approach as a means of navigating the crisis. The Prophetic Sunnah clearly outlines mechanisms and controls for the use …


Perspectives On The Renewal Of Arabic Syntax By Arab Renewal Scholars In The Second Half Of The Twentieth Century, Saad Meqdad Aug 2025

Perspectives On The Renewal Of Arabic Syntax By Arab Renewal Scholars In The Second Half Of The Twentieth Century, Saad Meqdad

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

The research examines the formation of a picture of the reality of Arabic syntax in the modern era. It stems from the hypothesis that an examination of the studies addressing the Arabic language can help answer the question regarding the effect of these studies and attempts to present a clear scientific picture of modern Arabic, compared to the efforts of the early scholars. The researcher frames the modern grammatical term as a means to move towards understanding the most prominent features of modern grammar, drawing on the reports from contemporary scholars regarding the sections of speech as they appeared in …


The Gains Of The Prophets Peace Be Upon Them, Abdel Fattah Al-Samman Aug 2025

The Gains Of The Prophets Peace Be Upon Them, Abdel Fattah Al-Samman

Jordan Journal of Applied Science-Humanities Series

Allah made the callers for Him not in need of others; therefore, He ordered all His prophets to work. He did not send His messengers to be a burden upon their people or to benefit from their call to Islam. This would keep them distanced from the people and hinder their message. Allah made His prophets a source of livelihood for their people, not the other way around. The fact that prophets worked for their own living serves as a model of hard work and self-sufficiency for those who came after them. One of the notable characteristics of the prophets …

Poetic Lines And Social Thought, Adam Neikirk Aug 2025

Poetic Lines And Social Thought, Adam Neikirk

Contemporary Aesthetics (Journal Archive)

This article draws connections between formal poetry and the capacity to imagine not just the actual world, but any possible world as essentially peopled and peopled with others: both human and nonhuman intelligences. Beginning with an anecdote from the fringes of science, the author goes on to identify the presence of social thought in Romantic literary worlds, citing canonical poems that rely on the recursion of metrical lines such as “Mont Blanc” (Percy Bysshe Shelley) and “Kubla Khan” (Samuel Taylor Coleridge). A theory of poetic lines is then proffered in which poetic invention is related strongly to the idea of …

Spiritual Music As A Factor Of Religious Identity In Ukrainian Orthodoxy, Oleh Sokolovskyi, Maksym Melnychuk, Sviatoslav Melnychuk Aug 2025

Spiritual Music As A Factor Of Religious Identity In Ukrainian Orthodoxy, Oleh Sokolovskyi, Maksym Melnychuk, Sviatoslav Melnychuk

Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe

This scholarly article explores current challenges and spiritual-cultural trends arising in the context of historical events and civilizational transformations experienced by modern Ukraine. The study focuses on the revival of authentic traditions of sacred musical art within Ukrainian Orthodoxy, regarded as one of the fundamental factors in the formation of national identity. Within an interdisciplinary approach that combines religious studies, philosophy, art history, and cultural studies, the research analyzes the musical sacredness as a phenomenon of numinous experience imbued with transcendental meaning and cathartic energy. It is established that the spiritual music of the Orthodox tradition functions as a form …


The Orthodox Parish And Community: A Reflection On The Post-Totalitarian Model Of Identity In Bulgaria, Presb. Sava (Shtoni) Kokoudev Aug 2025

The Orthodox Parish And Community: A Reflection On The Post-Totalitarian Model Of Identity In Bulgaria, Presb. Sava (Shtoni) Kokoudev

Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe

The article examines parish multifaceted identities and its function as a Eucharistic community, while also exploring its cultural, and historical influences in post-totalitarian context. The study delineates two identities and ecclesiological models—liturgical and institutional—to facilitate comparative analysis. The confusion and mixture of these models has caused a loss of parish community identity and function, which is evident in contemporary post-totalitarian status quo. Important issue is the restoration of the Orthodox Church’s authentic catholic identity (ɫɴɛɨɪɧɨɫɬ). This predicament gives rise to the second challenge of revitalizing liturgical life in parishes and reestablishing communion between bishops, priests, and laypeople. It also necessitates …


The Idea Of A Just Peace In Christian Social Ethics And The Possibility Of Its Implementation In The Context Of The Russian-Ukrainian War, Iryna Fenno Aug 2025

The Idea Of A Just Peace In Christian Social Ethics And The Possibility Of Its Implementation In The Context Of The Russian-Ukrainian War, Iryna Fenno

Occasional Papers on Religion in Eastern Europe

This research examines the concept of just peace, which is most often discussed in the public sphere, particularly among political and religious circles, in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war. After analyzing Christian discourse on war and peace—including extreme pacifism, the idea of a just war, and just peacemaking—the author argues that the idea of a just peace is the most effective response. Through an analysis of sociological surveys, the article reveals Ukrainian society's attitudes toward the idea of just peace and demonstrates a direct correlation between these attitudes and political events on the international stage. Nevertheless, the mechanisms and …
