Nathan Foster

Foster, Nathan. The Making of an Ordinary Saint: My Journey from Frustration to Joy with the Spiritual Disciplines. Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Books, 2014.

The Making of an Ordinary Saint More than thirty years after his father’s classic book brought them to the masses, Nathan Foster took his own unique path into the spiritual disciplines. As he sought day by day to develop habits that would enable him to live more like Jesus, he encountered problems both universal and personal. Along the way, he found creative new ways to practice the disciplines and discovered that a vital, conversational relationship with God was truly within his grasp.

Now he invites you to join him on the journey. You may just find that holy habits are truly possible for all.

Sukhodoeva, L. F., and James Coe. “Innovations in Training Leaders of an Organization.” Economics Bulletin of the Nizhny Novgorod University 2, no. 1.  (2014): 278-282.

Abstract: It is mandatory in the present-day global business society that leading universities should incorporate innovative and global factors which enhance business leaders’ educational needs. If higher education stays relevant in a world which has become linked in business economic interdependence, the use of innovative methodologies in presenting learning experiences for these leaders becomes imperative.

Mark Edwards

Edwards, Mark. “Can Christianity Save Civilisation?: Liberal Protestant Anti-Secularism in Interwar America.” Journal of Religious History. Advance online publication (2014). doi: 10.1111/1467-9809.12126

Abstract: This article explores the geopolitics of liberal evangelicalism, Christian Realism, and the ecumenical movement as collective responses to the rise of “secularism” after World War I. Alternatively, it considers how liberal Protestants looked to Roman Catholicism for support in their defence of the Christian identity of the United States and the West more generally. The long history of Christian anti-secularism in America complicates familiar portraits of liberal Protestants as agents of secularisation.

Cameron Moore

J. Cameron Moore. “Outward Seeming: Lancelot’s Prayer and the Healing of Sir Urry in Malory’s Morte Darthur.”Arthuriana 24, no. 2 (2014): 3-20. doi: 10.1353/art.2014.0019

Abstract: Lancelot’s reaction to prayer in the Sir Urry episode of the Morte Darthur differs from his other responses to efficacious prayer, revealing the disjunction between his inward spiritual state and his outward appearance as the greatest knight in the world.
