    While courses in Bible and theology typically require research papers, particularly at the graduate level, very few include training in research. Professors have two options: use valuable class time to teach students as much as they can, or lower their standards with the understanding that students cannot be expected to complete tasks for which they have never been prepared. From Topic to Thesis: A Guide to Theological Research offers a third option. This affordable and accessible tool walks students through the process, focusing on five steps: finding direction, gathering sources, understanding issues, entering discussion and establishing a position. Its goal is to take students directly from a research assignment to a research argument—in other words, from topic to thesis.

    Creating Space tells a professional and personal story of healthcare chaplaincy and models the way in which practice development emerges from reflecting on the human story. This book reveals to healthcare, the Church and the community, the unique role of the chaplain’s experiences as a resource to others. It is written for professional practitioners, prompting their own contextual learning and development, whether as chaplains, pastoral carers, parish clergy, lay ministers, volunteers in any caring context, those who work in listening therapies, those who provide care and support to others of any kind, or those who use or teach reflective practice.
    
     
    The authors connect in a straightforward way their view of healthcare chaplaincy as a model of practical theology, based on key practical theologians who see the human story as a source of learning. They outline their own reflective practice tool for learning and share the way in which they see each pastoral encounter as a reflective source of learning. They discover how their experiences have developed the discernment process for chaplaincy vocation, urging the Church to see beyond the parish model in today’s world.

    In our fast-paced, impersonal world, we all need to love ourselves a little. We need to find some worth within us, to believe that we are capable of loving and being loved. We need to know we have a reasonable chance of achieving our goals and making our way through the maze of life’s challenges. 
    But what happens when our view of ourselves becomes totally distorted from reality? What happens when we falsify who we are and create an image that, while grand and important, has no root in reality? We become narcissists and the line between our fantasy world and our real world blurs. Left unchecked this destructive distortion will ultimately progress to the most severe form of narcissism called narcissistic personality disorder. 
    But how would you know if you are a narcissist? Narcissists are basically too caught up in themselves to ever recognize or admit that they suffer from narcissistic personality disorder. In his ground breaking book entitled “Are You a Narcissist?” author Larry Tate delivers the ultimate guide to determining if you suffer from narcissism and the narcissistic personality disorder. 
    Some of the topics covered include: 
    • Determining if you are exhibiting the signs of narcissism and narcissistic personality disorder 
    • Examining the impact of an exaggerated sense of self-worth on your ability to relate to others 
    • The difficulties of being or working with a narcissist in the workplace 
    • If you are suffering from narcissistic personality disorder help you to see the world from the perspective of other people 
    • Examine why narcissists pretend to be more important than they are 
    • Explore the darkest sides of narcissism such as rage and contempt
