Stumbling Blocks

Conquering the stuff that holds you back

By: Gavin Calver,Anne Calver

Getting through the tough stuff. You see a friend suffer. Leaders and churches let you down. Your prayers fall flat. Maybe your dad died. How do you have faith through these things? Gavin and Anne have faced their own challenges. They struggled to conceive ' and then their second child needed thirteen blood transfusions. Every day their work brings them into contact with hurting young people. They don't have all the answers, but they demonstrate that it is possible to meet the questions head-on and go on growing. -Gavin and Anne have chosen to make living for Jesus the most important thing in their lives. This honest book is born out of experience and shaped by encounters with people who struggle. If you want a quick-fix consumer faith don't bother to read it. But if you are seeking genuine answers, this book is a real find.-' Ian Coffey, Director of Leadership Training, Moorlands College -Gavin and Anne have emerged stronger, more compassionate and more focussed as they have allowed their faith to be tested. Their insights and wisdom are set out in this readable and honest book, which we thoroughly recommend to you: get it, read it and live it!- ' John and Anne Coles, National Directors, New Wine -What I love most about Gav and Anne is their integrity.- ' Rachel Gardner, Romance Academy

Unleashed

The Acts Church Today

By: GAVIN & ANNE CALVER

The early church spread with remarkable speed, impelled by joy, urgency, profound compassion, and the day-to-day experience of working in the power of the Holy Spirit. Despite opposition at all levels, the first Christians expressed their love and wonder in acts of kindness, worship, and their eagerness to share the good news of the risen Jesus. Gavin and Anne Calver explore what this extraordinary historical account means for believers today, including: The Holy Spirit in the life of the church; taking risks; living together in the power of the Spirit; works and wonders; hearing from God; responding to the call of God; miracles then and now.

Lazy, Antisocial and Selfish?

Stories of hope from a new generation

By: Gavin Calver,Simeon Whiting

There is a widespread myth that young people are feckless and irresponsible. To contradict this, Gavin and Simeon present twelve groups of real young people, and the adults who helped to form, nurture and develop them. Their book explores how these groups began, grew, experienced the presence of God, and acted to change their communities in Jesus' name. It will encourage readers to see young people as exciting, challenging, vibrant and potential revolutionaries. It will challenge young readers to emulate the true-life stories within the book, and take steps to revolutionise their churches, schools and communities. It will also show that to be a 'youth leader', it is not necessary to be a spiritual giant, but simply a faithful servant of God.

Dyslexia and Inclusion

Classroom approaches for assessment, teaching and learning

By: Gavin Reid

This book provides the teacher with an understanding of dyslexia and offers practical approaches that can be used for assessment, teaching and learning. The book aims to highlight how the needs of children with dyslexia can be met within the curriculum and within the mainstream classroom. The key theme of the book is inclusion and suggests that intervention for dyslexic children should focus on the barriers to learning, and the most prominent of these may be aspects of the curriculum and how the curriculum is presented. By understanding crucial aspects of dyslexia, teachers can be pro-active and anticipate the type of difficulties that can be experienced. The book also discusses appropriate use of resources, differentiation and learning styles. The book covers: understanding and identifying dyslexia teaching and learning approaches and classroom strategies curriculum perspectives and planning for learning dyslexia and inclusion.

Spatio–Temporal Methods in Environmental Epidemiology with R

By: Gavin Shaddick,James V. Zidek,Alexandra M. Schmidt

Spatio-Temporal Methods in Environmental Epidemiology with R, like its First Edition, explores the interface between environmental epidemiology and spatio-temporal modeling. It links recent developments in spatio-temporal theory with epidemiological applications. Drawing on real-life problems, it shows how recent advances in methodology can assess the health risks associated with environmental hazards. The book's clear guidelines enable the implementation of the methodology and estimation of risks in practice. New additions to the Second Edition include: a thorough exploration of the underlying concepts behind knowledge discovery through data; a new chapter on extracting information from data using R and the tidyverse; additional material on methods for Bayesian computation, including the use of NIMBLE and Stan; new methods for performing spatio-temporal analysis and an updated chapter containing further topics. Throughout the book there are new examples, and the presentation of R code for examples has been extended. Along with these additions, the book now has a GitHub site (https://spacetime-environ.github.io/stepi2) that contains data, code and further worked examples. Features: • Explores the interface between environmental epidemiology and spatio-temporal modeling • Incorporates examples that show how spatio-temporal methodology can inform societal concerns about the effects of environmental hazards on health • Uses a Bayesian foundation on which to build an integrated approach to spatio-temporal modeling and environmental epidemiology • Discusses data analysis and topics such as data visualization, mapping, wrangling and analysis • Shows how to design networks for monitoring hazardous environmental processes and the ill effects of preferential sampling • Through the listing and application of code, shows the power of R, tidyverse, NIMBLE and Stan and other modern tools in performing complex data analysis and modeling Representing a continuing important direction in environmental epidemiology, this book – in full color throughout – underscores the increasing need to consider dependencies in both space and time when modeling epidemiological data. Readers will learn how to identify and model patterns in spatio-temporal data and how to exploit dependencies over space and time to reduce bias and inefficiency when estimating risks to health.

The MicroDistillers' Handbook Volume 2

By: Gavin D Smith

Artisan and micro distilling continue on an upward trajectory. In 2018 the UK had 205 distilleries, but that figure has now risen to 246 after a further 41 opened in 2019. The number of distilleries in the UK has now grown year on year since 2011, when there were just 110 distillers in the country. Consumers are now willing to pay for authentic smaller brands was said to have driven demand for ‘craft’ spirits, which has led to the increase in distillery numbers, “increasing popularity of flavoured spirits” being a major driver, with new brands creating flavoured expressions such as lemon sherbet, pear drop and Parma Violet. Gin sales in 2019 were recorded at over £1 billion. The growth in British craft distilling has not stopped yet. Whilst gin sales growth is beginning to taper off, new distillers are still entering the market and M&A (mergers and acquisitions) deals are being completed. “The trend for authentic local artisan food and drink looks to be here to stay, and that will continue to tempt entrepreneurs and investors into the craft spirits industry. “While artisan gin has been the big growth driver over the last five years, there is also strong interest in some of the smaller artisan whisky distillers in Scotland.”
