Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book is for business managers and leaders facing big decisions about software. Read this before you call the salespeople, vendors, and consulting companies. Sometimes an organization wants software for more than just the common tasks like internet browsing, documents, and email - software that will enable it to step up to the next level of business activity, efficiency, and productivity: to automate and expedite a key process, or create a new process; to facilitate collaboration; to connect data with data, people with data, or people with services. Here you don't just install a conventional program and go through some tutorials. Everything changes. People in diverse roles doing a variety of tasks will become part of a new system. Staff, affiliates, and customers will all be affected, directly or indirectly - and will be interconnected in new and unfamiliar ways. All activities should coordinate and flow easily and in a timely manner. The solution should augment what works in the pre-existing process as well as build new, more efficient pathways, enhanced with powerful tools. To succeed, enterprise-level software initiatives like this require careful planning and considerable effort. The potential rewards are huge - major cost savings, a big boost in revenue, and greater market share - but the risks are significant. Small companies may also face these issues, especially if they have a unique process that is their competitive edge. Software vendors will not necessarily tell you everything you need to know, nor will they do your due diligence for you when you plan, select, and implement the technology. If you do not have sufficient expertise in-house you can make serious mistakes. A number of issues might not get the attention they deserve, including: -Is the technology being considered really the best choice? -Are you getting the features, capabilities, and scalability you need now and will need in the future? -Security and change control. What are the risks in the cloud and software-as-a-service? -Loading, migrating, and connecting with data - an easily underweighted challenge. -Connecting with legacy systems. Is the original knowledge still in-house? -Will all the users be represented? How about the customers? Who will make sure? -How will you know you are getting high quality, industrial strength custom work? -What about system configuration, training, knowledge transfer, and maintenance? -Will your organization really own the system, or will you remain dependent on the vendor? -What happens if your vendor goes out of business or the platform you bought is discontinued? -Have you really identified all the tasks required, their costs, and business impacts? -Are your preliminary requirements gathering and planning sessions really focused, or are you wasting time? -Will your staff and your business be downgraded by a software upgrade? -Will your new system last for years, even decades? A premium price tag won't guarantee it. This book offers information to help you make good choices and avoid the pitfalls. It explains how a software professional - the tech advisor - can come in on a short-term basis to support your work before you call the vendors. The cost is often offset by the time it saves your highly paid managers responsible for the preliminary work. The tech advisor protects your interests and is your advocate standing between you and the vendors. The book explains how to find and hire one. It also sheds light on the advisor's crucial methodologies. Whether or not you hire a tech advisor, the book will help you make wiser technology choices. This book is your tech advisor, and will help you become your own tech advisor. It will help you ask the right questions, do your due diligence, and apply some of the approaches and methodologies the tech advisor uses. This way you are far more likely to get the timely answers and the powerful, cost-. Dunn, Craig (illustrator). …

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Unity and Diversity in the New Testament is a thorough investigation into the canon of the New Testament, and Christianity's origins. It assumes the reader is familiar with the basic question of who wrote the books, when, why etc and it moves on to look in detail at what were the various emphases in the gospel proclaimed by Jesus, Luke, Paul and John. It also examines primitive Christianity's preaching and teaching, confessional formulae, oral traditions, organisation and worship, concepts of ministry and community, and ritual acts. In the second half of the book, the author maps out the scope of the diversity he found in the fist half's investigation. Here he identifies and traces the major currents within the stream of first and second generation Christianity which includes a study of Jewish Christianity, Hellenistic Christianity, Apocalyptic Christianity and Early Catholicism. The book concludes with a consideration of the repercussions of such findings, for how Christians understand the New Testament, and what it means to be Christian, today. This new edition is further enhanced with the author's consideration of these same themes, 25 years after he first wrote about them. The final chapter is the authors critical refinement of the ideas and issues that remain relevant and important for any realistic theology of canon to be considered today.…

Paperback. Condition: Fair. In Baptism in the Holy Spirit James Dunn argues that water baptism is only one element in the New Testament pattern of conversion and initiation. The gift of the Spirit, he believes, is the central element. For the writers of the New Testament only those who had received the Holy Spirit could be called Christians. For them the reception of the Spirit was a very definite and often very dramatic experience - the decisive and climactic experience in conversion - initiation - to which Christians were usually recalled when reminded of their Christian faith and experience. In this book James Dunn uncovers the place of the gift of the Holy Spirit in the total complex event of becoming a Christian. His conclusions will help readers to deepen their understanding of the sacrament of baptism. Since its original publication in 1970 Baptism in the Holy Spirit has become a classic of New Testament scholarship. This new edition, published on the fortieth anniversary of its original publication, includes a new extended Preface in which James Dunn engages with the debates about Baptism in the Holy Spirit since it was first published. James D. G. Dunn was Lightfoot Professor of Divinity in the University of Durham. He is the author of numerous best-selling books and acknowledged as one of the world's leading experts on New Testament study.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The apostle Paul has been justifiably described as the first and greatest Christian theologian. His letters were among the earliest documents to be included in the New Testament and, as such, they shaped Christian thinking from the beginning. As a missionary, theologian and pastor Paul's own wrestling with theological and ethical questions of his day is paradigmatic for Christian theology, not least for Christianity's own identity and continuing relationship with Judaism. The Cambridge Companion to St Paul provides an important assessment of this apostle and a fresh appreciation of his continuing significance today. With eighteen chapters written by a team of leading international specialists on Paul, the Companion provides a sympathetic and critical overview of the apostle, covering his life and work, his letters and his theology. The volume will provide an invaluable starting point and helpful cross check for subsequent studies.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. The latest book in the Understanding Jesus Today series deals with the role of discipleship in Christianity. James Dunn explores the original meaning of discipleship in the early church and then discusses what discipleship should mean for Christians today. The evidence in the Gospels regarding the requirements of discipleship, including the beliefs and daily character of the life of a disciple, are explored and a firm basis upon which a tradition of discipleship can be defined is found. Important questions addressed are: to whom was Jesus's call to discipleship primarily directed; what were the characteristics of the community of disciples that formed around Jesus in His lifetime and how has the character of that community, which has become the Christian Church, changed over time; how does modern discipleship measure up against discipleship in the early Church? The book is based on the best of current scholarship but is written at a popular level.…
