Little "Bits" of Buford

Overcoming Sadness by Finding “Bits” of Beauty in Everyday Life

By: Tracy W. Smith

Sadness and depression can quickly overtake a person. By taking a look at those little Bits and pieces of life that are right there in front of you every single day, you can help yourself up and out of whatever circumstance you are in. Even in times of great stress, there is beauty to be found. Maybe it is just in the song that a little bird in the tree nearby is singing for you. Hear it. Maybe it is just in the scent of a flower. Smell it. Maybe it is just in the flavor of the honeysuckle. Taste it. Maybe it is just in the raindrop on your face. Feel it. Maybe it is just in the song of the wind. Sense it. Maybe it is just in the sound of children laughing nearby. Hear it. Maybe it is just in the presence of those who love you and are sending love to you. Feel it. Even in the darkest of times, Gods goodness can be found all around us. Find it!

Filaments: Theological Profiles

Selected Essays, Volume 2

By: David Tracy

“[Collected] essays spanning five decades, imposing structure on a set of reflections from one of the most visionary and expansive living theologians.” —Journal of the American Academy of Religion In the second volume of his two-volume collection of essays from the 1980s to 2018, renowned Catholic theologian David Tracy gathers profiles of significant theologians, philosophers, and religious thinkers. These essays, he suggests, can be thought of in terms of Walt Whitman’s “filaments,” which are thrown out from the speaking self to others—ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary—in order to be caught elsewhere. Filaments arranges its subjects in rough chronological order, from choices in ancient theology, such as Augustine, through the likes of William of St. Thierry in the medieval period and Martin Luther and Michelangelo in the early modern, and, finally, to modern and contemporary thinkers, including Bernard Lonergan, Paul Tillich, Simone Weil, Karl Rahner, Reinhold Niebuhr, and Iris Murdoch. Taken together, these essays can be understood as a partial initiation into a history of Christian theology defined by Tracy’s key virtues of plurality and ambiguity. Marked by surprising insights and connections, Filaments brings the work of one of North America’s most important religious thinkers once again to the forefront. “To read [Filaments] is to be educated and enriched by a remarkable breadth of inquiry and depth of analysis . . . Tracy’s passion for theological conversation is . . . fueled by a desire for justice and peace, but also by wonder at the unending love and creativity of God.” —Critical Theology

Midwifery

Preparation for Practice

By: Sally Pairman,Sally K. Tracy,Carol Thorogood,Jan Pincombe

Midwifery Preparation for Practice 2e is the only text which reflects the historical and socio - political environment in which midwives in Australia and New Zealand practice. In addition, it is the only text which incorporates the philosophy and standards endorsed by New Zealand and Australian Colleges of Midwives while also focusing on the partnership between midwives with women and the woman- centred model of midwifery care. The second edition has built on the existing philosophy and structure of Midwifery: Preparation for Practice, though with a greater emphasis on the development of critical thinking and researching skills. Key chapters have been re-written to reflect recent changes in government legislation while current research and pertinent examples are included throughout the text. This new edition is supported by a comprehensive suite of resources for both Instructors and Students using the Evolve website as a platform. These ancillaries will re-enforce the critical thinking elements for students with interactive case studies and scenario based learning exercises as well as the multiple choice questions.

Two-Edged Sword

The Navy as an Instrument of Canadian Foreign Policy

By: Nicholas Tracy

In the first major study of the Royal Canadian Navy's contribution to foreign policy, Nicholas Tracy takes a comprehensive look at the paradox that Canada faces in participating in a system of collective defence as a means of avoiding subordination to other countries. Created in 1910 to support Canadian autonomy, the Royal Canadian Navy has played an important role in defining Canada's relationship with the United Kingdom, the United States, and NATO. Initially involved with participation in Imperial and Commonwealth defence, the RCN's role shifted following the Second World War to primarily ensuring the survival of the NATO alliance and deflecting American influence over Canada. Tracy demonstrates the ways in which the Navy's priorities have realigned since the end of the Cold War, this time partnering with the US and NATO navies in global policing. Insightful, detailed, and grounded in solid historical scholarship, A Two-Edged Sword presents a complete portrait of the shifting relevance and future of a cornerstone of Canadian defence.

Canadian Natural Resource and Environmental Policy, 2nd ed.

Political Economy and Public Policy

By: Melody Hessing,Michael Howlett,Tracy Summerville

This book provides an analytic framework from which the foundation of ideological perspectives, administrative structures, and substantive issues are explored. Departing from traditional approaches that emphasize a single discipline or perspective, it offers an interdisciplinary framework with which to think through ecological, political, economic, and social issues. It also provides a multi-stage analysis of policy making from agenda setting through the evaluation process. The integration of social science perspectives and the combination of theoretical and empirical work make this innovative book one of the most comprehensive analyses of Canadian natural resource and environmental policy to date.

Wonderful Is Your Name!

By: Tracy L. Johnson

Wonderful Is Your Name!

By: Tracy L. Johnson

Wonderful Is Your Name is a personal testimony of the many persons of God. In the book of Exodus, God chose Moses to deliver the Israelites. Moses’s concern was that the people would not respect him as their leader, let alone believe that God sent him. Moses questioned God by asking Him, “Who shall I say sent me?” God’s response was “I Am who I Am—say that ‘I Am has sent me to you’” (Exodus 3:13–14). Anyone who professes to be a child of God understands that He has infinite power, wisdom, and knowledge. He is limitless. He can do all things! I have read the Bible and discovered for myself that God has shown up for believers in such personal ways that they could not deny His omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence. As a believer, I had to trust that God could and would be everything I needed Him to be at the exact point in time. Throughout my life, I can attest to the fact that God has never let me down. He has been my Savior, Sustainer, Protector, Provider, Way Maker, Refuge, Resource, Strength, Healer, Peace Giver, Father, Best Friend, and the list goes on. This devotion serves to uplift and celebrate the countless ways in which He has intervened in my life. In this unique book, I provide the name, the meaning, supporting scripture(s), a worship song, and my personal testimony as they pertain to God. Following my testimony is a blank page that allows the reader to write their personal testimony of how God moved in their situation as that particular “God man.” My prayer is that people will realize that God loves them in and through all circumstances. Invite Him into your heart. Confess your sins and believe that Jesus Christ paid the penalty for them all. Because of the selfless act of Jesus (John 3:16), we are restored to a Creator who desires an intimate and personal relationship with each of His children; however, it’s up to His children to understand who He is and to invite Him to be a part of everything. As a result of daring to trust Him, I have learned that God can do all things but fail. He is a loyal and faithful intercessor and a gracious and merciful Father. Just thinking of all that He has done and all that He has promised gives me butterflies. I’ve never known a love like this, and all I can say is, “My God, my God, how Wonderful Is Your Name.”
