Glimpses Beyond The Mirror Poems of Pilgrimage: Searching For What Lasts Past Today Nature and especially mountains are places of beauty and life - naturalist-writer John Muir knew them better than anyone because he constantly wandered there. Muir also knew how we humans forsake mountains, poetry, beauty, and truth, for things of lesser value. Today poems and pilgrimages can still illuminate what is real and what lies beyond. There is a spiritual dimension, and stepping into these verses can help reveal glimpses of that reality. Humans have always longed for what is true and long-lasting, and even what is heart-breaking or terrifying; for centuries these are the reasons people have been going on pilgrimages. They are a way for each of us to learn (again and again) about the world and about ourselves. These verses spring from different times of wonder, travel, grace, regrets, or rejoicing which transcend the daily grind-illumination from an alpine peak, from childbirth, or even the afterlife. There is more in our imaginations than we can hardly conceive. There are places and vistas that can only be reached in this way.

Students' course grades matter. Research studies show that students' grades are more predictive than test scores of their future academic success, including high school and post-secondary outcomes. Yet nationally and within Chicago Public Schools (CPS), boys' grades are consistently lower than girls' grades. CPS leaders and educators want to meet their goal of "Bs or better" and strong educational outcomes for all students, and they are in conversation about how they're supporting boys.This study aims to provide insights into this difference in boys' and girls' grades in Chicago by looking first at one grade level and one subject area-ninth-grade math (algebra and geometry)-using two school years of data, 2016-17 and 2017-18. Our findings are specific to math students in these years, and also suggest what may (and may not) be driving differences in other grades and subjects.

The Scriptures stand as an encyclopedia of wisdom for the science and art of leadership. Life proves that art is the expression of science while science finds its meaning in the proton of what was created by God. Regardless of who is leading, it is safe to say that the written word of God models the way on what leadership is, including explicit examples on what to do and what not to do. For every assignment God had for those he called, he gave them strategies of implementation. In fact, when it comes to creation, and specifically humans, God has always made sure to put a model in place with which one can recreate, innovate, invent, or reinvent. Genesis 1 laid the foundation of creation from which sprung creativity and innovation. In fact, after creation, no man has been able to create anything. We either recreate, innovate, invent, or reinvent using what has already been made available to us through the original creation of God. This book takes us on a journey to leadership and reintroduces us to an aspect of leadership that does not focus on the position per se but more on the process of discovery, improvement, and influence manifested within a group that is working toward a common objective. Understanding that process eases the appropriation of the leadership mandate received in Genesis 1 to reproduce, rule, subdue, or even better, make more leaders with divine qualification for effective leadership.

I grew to realize that like all the others before them and all the immigrants to follow, my family wanted to find their future in America. Their sleepy little towns were beautiful and safe, but for these young adventurers, America was their destiny.

We now live in a culture that has removed God from the head of the table to a place where we can only see him in our rearview or peripheral vision. This world has accepted the finite wisdom of this world's system and has challenged the infinite hope in Jesus Christ.This book encapsulates a personal experience that parallels the metamorphosis of the caterpillar to the butterfly. This book provides a spiritual-expected challenge at each phase of the metamorphosis that will add virtue to the believer's faith. The gates of Nehemiah were used to parallel the order of God's spiritual growth as the believer saunters through the events of the metamorphosis of the caterpillar to the butterfly.The word of God commands believers to be transformed-not adding to one's religious devotion or one's spiritual rituals, not providing a better version of oneself, which is no change but starting anew (change in nature).The intent of this book is to identify the believer's whereabouts in their transformation and provide future challenges in preparation for Christ's return to his church.THIS BOOK IS DESIGNED TO PROVIDE:¿ a visual of the transformation of a believer's development process as itparallels the butterfly metamorphosis process;¿ a processing map for believers to identify what phase of themetamorphosis has been completed in their lives and how much isrequired to reach spiritual adulthood;¿ a developmental process for transformation by renewing one's mind andidentifying themselves through the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
