Are Men from Mars and Women from Venus? No. The earth is in fact the home base for both sexes. So why are we so different? Because God created us that way. Men and women were created with radically different ways of thinking, feeling, and perceiving. But when we check the Bible, we see that God never intended these differences to create the incredible friction they do in today. The good news is that God has already woven into His Word the perfect solution to this friction. Pastor, author, and conference speaker H. Dale Burke's book, Different By Design, is aimed at exposing the myth that men and women are too different to live in harmony. He contends that God's master plan includes harmony between men and women in marriage. When the inevitable struggles come into a relationship, Burke states that we need heavenly, down-to-earth biblical guidance for building healthy relationships.We all want to build stronger relationships, whether we're single, dating, married or passing along advice to grandkids. Different By Design provides an excellent framework within which to achieve that goal. Our differences do not surprise God. He wired us. He understands. He loves us. And He provides us with a map to navigate these tricky waters.

Back in print for use in your courses, this classic text features a new introduction by the author that situates the book in the context of present-day educational debates. This historic study analyzes the organizational and political pressures that combined to make three magnet schools distinctive social environments, a rare glimpse at the critical processes with which teachers and students in both "regular" schools and schools of choice must constantly struggle. In her new introduction, Metz discusses many of today's hot topics, including school choice, curricular reform, and school equity. She also looks at what has transpired in the school district and the schools since her study was first published two decades ago. The depth of detail in these case studies, along with the clear and systematic discussion of each school in terms of the theoretical framework provided by the author, make this a sought-after textbook for educational policy and school organization courses.

To say that marriage is today facing unprecedented crises is to be guilty of a chronic understatement. Soaring divorce rates have been fuelled by inadequate preparation for marriage, ignorance about its purpose, premarital sex, and counterfeit incarnations like polygamy, polyandry, and cohabitation. Additionally, economic pressures, increasing global amorality, and the determination to redefine marriage are further sounding the death knell for marriage. The good news is that there is nothing new under the sun, and this institution, which has survived every onslaught in every community across every age, will continue to do so. The purpose of this book is to heal marriages in this generation and, more significantly, equip the next generation to approach, prepare for, and conduct marriage as God intended. In this candid, practical, Bible-inspired treatise, you will discover the following: The purpose of marriage and lessons from the first marriage How clearly defined roles determine your marriage's success and insulate you from the scourge of unmet expectations A spiritual and practical checklist for picking the right spouse in the first place Three critical principles of communication Learning to fight properly by mastering conflict resolution techniques How not to make outlaws of your in-laws and parents "I can't live without you!"myth or fact? If sex can be good and at the same time godly; also, what is sexually permissible for a Christian couple What happens when the initial attraction fades or love dies What to do when your spouse is attracted to or involved with an external party The key to raising godly offspring The pervading theme from which the book derives its title is that men and women are different by design. Marriages totter and collapse because spouses do not realise this divine inbuilt design imperative to the success of their connubial experience. Enjoy discovering the truth this book exposes you to and the liberty it engenders in your marital walk.
