Like the prophet Elijah or like other faithful men and women in the Bible, have you been waiting on God? Have you been persisting in prayer, fasting, petitioning God for what He has promised you? Have you been waiting for a long time while it seems to you that others you know are moving along at a good pace? Are you now in that place where you are getting a bit tired and frustrated with waiting?In this book, Waiting by the Brook, Kathy-Ann C. Hernandez enters into a conversation with readers about what it means to wait on God. Beginning with the experience of the Prophet Elijah, but also drawing heavily from the accounts of other Bible characters as well as her own experiences, she shows how waiting on God is critical to our deepening relationship with Him. It is the central activity that defines our connection to God embodied in seven action steps.Far from being a state of dormancy, the waiting period is actually one of the most active periods of the Christian journey. It is through the experience of waiting patiently on God that we are best positioned to receive the most customized gifts that God eagerly wants to give us.

The Waiting by the Brook Journal: Reflections on Cultivating Deeper Intimacy with God

Can transformation be the primary goal of autoethnographic research? In this book, the authors provide proof that this is indeed possible. Since autoethnography first appeared as a nascent approach to social inquiry, much has been written about it as a useful addition to the field of qualitative research methods. Over the years, its usage has been extended across various disciplines including the humanities, human services, social sciences, leadership studies, engineering, education, counseling, and even medical education. Notably, the primary function of autoethnography to advance our understanding around sociocultural phenomena has been increasingly paired with a parallel function of the many ways in which this research method can also contribute to practice. However, though its contribution to scholarship is well documented, less has been written about its practical usage as the focal point of inquiry. Yet there is growing evidence that one of the emerging strengths of autoethnography is its transformative capabilities. In Transformative Autoethnography for Practitioners, Hernandez, Chang and Bilgen turn the spotlight on autoethnography as a tool for practitioners where the primary goal is to solve real world problems by facilitating transformational change at the individual, group and/or organizational levels. They draw on existing scholarship as well as their collective work and expertise to provide a Transformative Autoethnographic Model (TAM) for use by practitioners who are intent on effecting such changes in their respective contexts. The introduction to Transformative Autoethnography for Practitionersprovides an overview and an explanation of different approaches and variations of single focused ethnographic work (SAE) and collaborative autoethnography (CAE). It also presents and discusses in detail the TAM framework as consisting of several iterative steps. Parts 1-3 are each comprised of two chapters. The first chapter of each section situates the discussion of the AE/CAE for transformation at the individual, group and organizational level in the relevant literature. In the second chapter of each section, the authors provide examples, practical details and resources about how to apply TAM within each context. The book ends with a final chapter which explores future applications and directions for the TAM-AE/CAE model across various contexts, including in digital spaces.
