Ideal both as a professional handbook and a textbook, it covers social, developmental, educational, occupational and counselling psychology, as well as the psychology of religion. It carefully considers the processes of personal change and growth central to religion.

For Generation Y, born after 1982, Margaret Thatcher is a piece of social history, relationships happen over the Internet and music marks their territory. How does this generation think about the world? What does their spirituality look like? And what implications does this have for the Church? "Making Sense of Generation Y" addresses the urgent need for the Church to reconnect with young people in today's society, and to communicate with them in a way they can understand. Through researching the relationship young people aged 16-25 have to the popular arts (soaps, film, music, clubbing, advertising and culturally iconic images), the authors explore the implications of their worldview for youth work and youth ministry as well as the wider church.

Are you sick and tired of conflict? Do you find yourself encountering the same problems, over and over again? Or wish you could just disappear and avoid them completely? Many feel that their clashes with others are pointless just painful experiences that intensify frustrations. But learning how to handle conflict can transform your experience and revitalize your relationships. Whether it's your partner or your boss, your sister or your father-in-law, this book will help you understand yourself better and approach conflict with a new perspective. Conflict doesn't have to be a stumbling block in your relationships; it can be the cornerstone of a new way of relating. Looking at the different factors that influence how we relate to other people, psychologists Sara Savage and Eolene Boyd-MacMillan draw on years of research to explain the factors at play in conflict, and how to overcome them. Complete with self-assessment quizzes, this book will guide you to greater self-awareness and equip you with the tools to tackle conflict effectively.

Three Labrador puppies face steep life challenges as they discover their identity, learn to overcome conflict and rebuild their pack. The stories are based on the author's close observation of the dogs' behaviour as they respond to jealousy, conflict, being lost, found, hurt, healed, grief, friendship and the joy of belonging to their pack. Children want to know about real life, and the dogs' experiences provide a window to children's own highs and lows, safely at one remove. The seven illustrated stories tell a big tale about canine and human life, today and in the deep past. The stories begin when the dogs were born, when they were One Litter with One Mother. As puppies, they were taken to separate homes. The One Pack family was lost. Everything in the stories really happened, just as it is told.

Until now, Fresh Expressions has been about starting and sustaining mission initiatives among people with little or no church contact. As these projects mature, pastoral problems easily arise - how do you integrate the old with the new? How do you get an established congregation to change it views and practices? How do you cope with conflict? What if newcomers challenge set patterns of church behaviour rather than conform with them? The publication is structured for use for training in local churches, theological colleges and as a research tool in postgraduate study.
