Description
Book SynopsisChange is one of the passwords that describes the moving reality of our lives. It is obvious in our physical, mental, and social development. A human life is analogous in many ways to the cyclical seasons of nature. Whether in time or space, we are subject to novel experiences and circumstances. Since change affects us in such a drastic way, it is imperative to be well-armed to manage its impact. We need to be mentally and spiritually conditioned with the relevant attitude to monitor and adjust to the events that unwittingly come our way.This book seeks to empower you to manage your ongoing challenges in an ever-changing world. It will enable you to monitor and adjust to the changes taking place in your personal life, both from within and without. It is an invaluable tool that will help you travel in the paths leading to your well-being and the development of your capacity for service.
Trade ReviewTwo watchwords run like threads through Dr. Pamphile’s meditative book on change: 'monitor' and 'adjust.' In the face of the myriad changes that each of us face in our own lives and in the world around us . . . these watchwords will enable us, trusting in God, to navigate the waters of change, whenever and however they come. This is a hope-filled book. Dr. Pamphile writes clearly and with an easy style. Based on his own experience in Haiti and his awareness of major events throughout the world, he provides practical wisdom about facing and handling change. Dr. Pamphile doesn’t stop simply with surviving change, but he inspires us to become agents of change ourselves, relying on God’s power as we seek to serve others and build a better world. -- Rev. Dr. James E. Davison, director of continuing education and lecturer in Greek language and exegesis, Pittsburgh Theological Seminary
