Timely Insights Into Timeless Truth


Book Description

A few gifted people have the insight to observe ordinary events of life—what people say and do and even what they think—and discover the extraordinary. Ken Brown is such an observer. His insight into the ordinary and his ability to relate his observations to truth with practical application is significant. Ken's insight into biblical truth is equally noteworthy. For the Christian, it is not enough merely to observe the events and people around them; it is even more important to interpret them in light of eternal truth. From a broad and deep knowledge of Scripture, Ken Brown applies culturally relevant and timeless biblical principles to life and its challenges.

Civilizing the Museum


Book Description

Written over a thirty-five year career, the essays in Civilizing the Museum introduce students to the powerful, sometimes contested, and often unrealized notion that museums should welcome all because they house the collective memory of all. Drawing on her experience working in and with museums in the US and throughout the world, Author Elaine Heumann Gurian explores the possibilities for making museums more central and relevant to society. The twenty-two essays are organized around five main themes: museum definitions civic responsibility and social service architectural spaces exhibitions spirituality and rationality. And these themes address the elements that would make museums more inclusive such as: exhibition technique space configurations the personality of the director the role of social service power sharing types of museums the need for emotion humour and spirituality. Without abandoning the traditional museum processes, Gurian shows how museums can honour tradition whilst embracing the new. Enriched by her experience in groundbreaking museums, Gurian has provided a book that provokes thought, dialogue and action for students and professionals in the field to realize the inclusive potential of museums.
