Where Do We Go from Here? . 331 . Foreword From the beginning of Christianity, the natural overflow of being a disciple of Jesus has always been to make disciples of Jesus. “Follow me,” Jesus said, “and I will make you fishers of men” (Matt. 4:19). This was a promise: Jesus would take His disciples and turn them into disciple makers. And this was a command: He called each of His disciples to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them and teaching them to obey Him (Matt. 28:19–20). From the start, God’s design has been for every single disciple of Jesus to make disciples who make disciples who make disciples until the gospel spreads to all peoples. Yet we have subtly and tragically taken this costly command of Christ to go, baptize, and teach all nations and mutated it into a comfortable call for Christians to come, be baptized, and listen in one location. If you were to ask individual Christians today what it means to make disciples, you would likely get jumbled thoughts, ambiguous answers, and probably even some blank stares. In all our activity as Christians and with all our resources in the church, we are in danger of practically ignoring the commission of Christ. We view 7 8 Multiply evangelism as a dreaded topic, we reduce discipleship to a canned program, and so many in the church end up sidelined in a spectator mentality that delegates disciple making to pastors and professionals, ministers and missionaries. But this is not the way it’s supposed to be. Jesus has invited all of us to be a part of His plan. He has designed all of His people to know His joy as we share His love, spread His Word, and multiply His life among all of the peoples of the earth. This is the grand purpose for which we were created: to enjoy the grace of Christ as we spread the gospel of Christ from wherever we live to the ends of the earth. And this purpose is worth giving our lives to seeing it accomplished. It’s worth it for billions of people who do not yet know the mercy and majesty of God in Christ. And it’s worth it for you and me, because we were made to be disciples who make disciples until the day when we see the face of the One we follow, and together with all nations we experience His satisfaction for all of eternity. This is the heart behind the material you hold in your hand. When Francis Chan and I first met, our hearts immediately reso- nated around a shared passion for making disciples. We have a lot to learn, but we eagerly want to make disciples in our lives, and we zealously long to see every member of the church mobilized to make disciples through their lives. This material is part of the product of that passion. Francis and Mark have provided a simple, practical, biblical, helpful, and personal tool for disciples of Jesus who want to make disciples of Jesus. I pray that it will be used in God’s mercy to fuel the multiplication of the love and life of Christ literally all over the world ultimately for the glory of God’s name. David Platt How to Use the Material After Jesus rose from the grave, He left His followers with a simple command: “Go into all the world and make disciples” (see Matt. 28:19). The church should be known for this. If we are going to call ourselves followers of Jesus Christ, we should be making disciples. But most Christians today are not known for making disciples. We have developed a culture where a minister ministers and the rest of us sit back and enjoy “church” from a comfortable distance. This is not what God intends for His church.

  • The Notube Beancounter: Aggregating User Data for Television Programme Recommendation
    The NoTube BeanCounter: Aggregating User Data for Television Programme Recommendation Chris van Aart1, Lora Aroyo1, Dan Brickley13, Vicky Buser2, Libby Miller2, Michele Minno3, Michele Mostarda3, Davide Palmisano3, Yves Raimond2, Guus Schreiber1, and Ronald Siebes1 1 VU University Amsterdam, the Netherlands 2 BBC - Future Media & Technology, London, UK 3 Asemantics Srl, Rome Italy Abstract. In this paper we present our current experience of aggregat- ing user data from various Social Web applications and outline several key challenges in this area. The work is based on a concrete use case: reusing activity streams to determine a viewer's interests and generating television programme recommendations from these interests. Three sys- tem components are used to realise this goal: (1) an intelligent remote control: iZapper for capturing viewer activities in a cross-context televi- sion environment; (2) a backend: BeanCounter for aggregation of viewer activities from the iZapper and from different social web applications; and (3) a recommendation engine: iTube for recommending relevant tele- vision programmes . The focus of the paper is the BeanCounter as the first step to apply Social Web data for viewer and context modelling on the Web. This is work in progress of the NoTube project4. 1 Introduction: Television Meets the Social Web Television watching has always been a social activity, but as channels and deliv- ery mechanisms multiply, the enablers of social watching - simultaneous broad- cast times for everyone and limited choice - are decreasing[7]. There is a trend towards watching television or using television-related services[1] such as Elec- tronic Programme Guides (EPGs) on PC, handheld or other networked device.

  • Discourse and Identity: Representations of Women in Little Mix’S Songs
    DISCOURSE AND IDENTITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF WOMEN IN LITTLE MIX’S SONGS BY ALYA AISYAH BINTI AMRAN INTERNATIONAL ISLAMIC UNIVERSITY MALAYSIA 2020 DISCOURSE AND IDENTITY: REPRESENTATIONS OF WOMEN IN LITTLE MIX’S SONGS BY ALYA AISYAH BINTI AMRAN A Final Year Project submitted in fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of English for International Communications Kulliyyah of Languages and Management International Islamic University Malaysia JANUARY 2020 ABSTRACT Discrimination against women is a global issue and has been for years. Even in developing countries women experience biasness on the basis of their gender. The study aims to identify the different social roles and traits of women that can be found in song lyrics. Past studies explored various issues of what women face in their daily lives whether it be in education, social relationships and decision making in context of gender discrimination that are present in the media and songs. This is an exploratory study on representations of women in songs. The artist chosen for this study is the United Kingdom’s all female group, Little Mix. A qualitative research approach was used to fulfill the objectives of this research. A total of 29 Little Mix songs were chosen as the data and Membership Categorization Analysis was used as the framework of this research. Based on the analyses, a total of five social roles and three traits were found shared among women that were present in the songs. Women were represented both positively and negatively in Little Mix’s songs. The study may contribute to future studies that uses Membership Categorization Analysis as their framework of study.

  • Twitter – a Personal Perspective
    Twitter – a personal perspective Catriona Fisher Customer Services Manager University of Glasgow Library Email: catriona.fisher@glasgow. ac.uk twitter: @catrionafisher I joined Twitter in March 2009, but like most people I spent the first few months wondering what on earth this strange new world was all about. As a devoted user of Multiply, then Bebo and later Facebook, I was no stranger to social net- working, but Twitter was quite obviously some- thing different. I quickly realised the following: • you need your tweets to be public • the best way to get followers is to follow other people • hashtags are a must if you want your voice to be heard amongst the millions of tweets. I started out tweeting solely about work and had intended to have two accounts, one for work and a personal account (as I do with Facebook), but I quickly realised that many professionals on Twit- ter were tweeting about their work lives and their personal lives from the same account. This takes a bit of getting used to, but is very much the norm on Twitter. I now tweet from my own account @catrionafisher and also on behalf of the University of Glasgow Library @uofglibrary, along with a group of staff from Library Services. We’ve found Twitter to be a really powerful way of reaching out to students and other library users and it is now one of our primary channels of communication when we need to share informa- tion quickly. For example, we are using it to keep students up to date with any disruption during the work to re-clad the library building.

  • Social Networking for the SMB: an Offer You Can’T Refuse?
    now. Issue 8 Technology Spotlight Social networking For The SMB: An Offer You Can’t Refuse? With the unheralded arrival of the Facebook posse and Twitter mob into the back-alleys of traditional business marketing territory, Small- and Medium-Businesses (SMBs) can no longer ignore the lure of new business opportunities – or the accompanying challenges lurking within the shadows of the social networking underworld. PLAYING THE TECH ROULETTE Here we are in 2010. We are no longer in the slumps, with various components of the economy on the upward trajectory to help alleviate our wounds suffered during the recent downturn. Over the past quarters, SMBs have been held ransom by the same cost-cutting chains which threatened to rupture them further under the simultaneous strains of escalating competition. However, with economic rejuvenation now on the cards, “cautious optimism” is the secret code being whispered around along with a new willingness to spend, as excited SMB owners have their fingers ready on the trigger lest that opportune moment they’ve all been waiting for – finally arrives. However, all hell is not about to break loose, as the SMB owners have been biting on the recession bullet long enough to know the importance of maintaining a vigilant eye over their shoulders. As history has shown, the technology roulette is certainly not for the faint-hearted, as we have witnessed the quick demise of many a “next big things” as they failed to perform up to first impressions, before being relegated down the ranks to nothing but another famous four-letter word –“hype”.

Yet, it comes with a caveat: since there are more than 394 million professionals who use the social network,1 you need to complete your LinkedIn profile (only 50% of people complete their LinkedIn profile according to LinkedIn’s only stats) AND you need to put your best foot forward with your digital brand so that you stand out, and in a good way. Most professionals know that they need to distinguish themselves from other potential hires. It should be easy – you’re a unique individual with a specific set of strengths, talents, and experience that inherently sets you apart from the sea of others, right? While that may be so, there’s no guarantee that hiring managers and other professionals from potential employers will notice these aspects of your profile – unless you present them in the right way. It goes without saying that we’re all short on time these days. So, your goal on LinkedIn is not just to make a powerful impression, but to do so as efficiently as possible so that executives, hiring managers, other recruiters, and any other potential connections will notice you right away.

  • A Multicultural Undergraduate Research Project from a First-Year Seminar
    International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education 2017, Volume 29, Number 1, 162-176 http://www.isetl.org/ijtlhe/ ISSN 1812-9129 When Twitter Meets Advocacy: A Multicultural Undergraduate Research Project From a First-Year Seminar Sarah Maben and Lora Helvie-Mason Tarleton State University Two professors share how they combined Web 2.0, multicultural themes, and undergraduate research in a first-year seminar. The professors explain the “perfect storm” of a project in which undergraduate students collected and analyzed tweets from advocates for various multicultural causes to produce their first collegiate research project. Capitalizing on student interest in social networking, professors aimed to meet multiple student learning objectives and satisfy an overarching theme of multiculturalism for the first-year seminar at a university in the southwestern United States. Students analyzed Twitter handles for causes or individuals advocating for causes related to social, political, and humanitarian efforts. Using basic qualitative and quantitative approaches, students wrote undergraduate research papers and presented their findings about how their cause and advocates used Twitter. The article provides project and assessment rubrics, ideas for improvement, and tools for replication. As we consider the new face of activism in a communication. In 140 characters, anyone with a digital age and the impact of social media on college mobile device and Internet connectivity can microblog students, instructors of a first-year seminar course about topics ranging from individual musings, developed a project where students conducted research strategic messages for a company or organization, or on the use of Twitter as a channel for advocacy. news and information.
