Source to Summit is a brand new KS3 course, comprising student books and digital Kerboodle resources, that have been cohesively planned to ensure full compliance with the new Religious Education Curriculum Directory. Series editor, Andy Lewis, and a writing team of practising teachers have drawn on their expertise and classroom experience to present the new curriculum in a way that students will be able to understand and remember. Mirroring the structure of the RECD, there is a strong narrative telling the Christian story from Creation to the Church today. Lessons are carefully sequenced, and content presented in accessible and vividly designed spreads. There are opportunities for students to engage with scripture, and a wide range of case studies and examples help bring alive the Catholic faith. Activities on each spread explicitly allow students to develop skills to understand, discern and personally respond to the material they encounter. Through a range of tasks with accompanying guidance, students will be able to demonstrate their progress over time in a structured way. This course seeks to be authentic to the Catholic faith, rigorous and engaging, allowing students of all faiths and backgrounds to be fully immersed in the curriculum in an inclusive way.

"This book will help church leaders, lay and ordained, locally and nationally, to choose selectively from the resources available to develop a coherent and effective strategy for evangelism within the whole mission of the church."--Back cover.

Prejudiced, petulant, resentful, sulky: Jonah was not just a reluctant spokesman for God, he was also a disobedient one. The story of Jonah shows how God calls and uses those who are far from perfect. As Christians, we are all called to respond in some way to God ́s prompting. This study of the book of Jonah challenges us to do just that.

This book follows the journeys of those fleeing war, poverty or political crises, risking their lives as they attempt to find sanctuary in Europe. Over the past 25 years, almost 40,000 migrants have been reported missing or died due to drowning or exhaustion on the borders of Europe. 6,000 migrants died in 2016 alone, making it the deadliest year on record. Growing numbers of arrivals since 2015 have caused a wave of panic to sweep across the countries of the European Union, which has responded with an increasingly entrenched policy – the only one it considers appropriate – of fortifying its external borders. As a result, numerous walls and fences have sprung up to "regulate the flows", new camps have been opened and reception centres have been set up beyond the frontiers of Europe, all accompanied by the steady militarisation of surveillance and repression. The EU has thus been just as active in precipitating this "migrant crisis" as it has been in prolonging its effects. Indeed, this crisis calls into question the entire European system for border management and policies on immigration and reception. Deconstructing preconceptions, changing the way we see others, probing borders and mapping the nexus of control and detention, the collection of articles, maps, photographs and illustrations in this Atlas provide an important critical geography of migration policies. Perfect for journalists, activists, students of geopolitics at school or university, this Atlas seeks, above all, to give migrants a voice.

Spirituality is increasingly accepted as integral to human psychology, vital for physical and mental health. The Psychology of Spirituality is an accessible book that introduces the relationship between spirituality and psychology. The author sets out what spirituality is, the values it represents and how it can contribute to mental health and wellbeing. He then illustrates how knowledge of spirituality can provide a deeper understanding of people’s problems and can help them develop resilience and aid recovery. With reference to a new holistic or ‘psycho-spiritual’ paradigm, the book then covers stages of spiritual development: from having natural spiritual awareness in early childhood to the waning of interest in later childhood; largely conforming to group mentality in adolescence before discovering individuality; and then the final journey towards full personal and emotional maturity. Finally, the author outlines practical advice on how to explore and make use of spirituality, covering a range of spiritual skills and practices, including meditation and contemplation. Each chapter includes case examples and exercises to explore the ideas covered. This book will be compelling reading for psychologists, psychiatrists, chaplains, healthcare professionals, students, and anyone wanting to understand better the role of spirituality and psychology in the lives of all.
