Hope Church Message: Simplify Series: Hope Church Message: Simplify (As props, we used three wooden boxes, each of which had wording that expressed our core church mission.) Are you familiar with the KISS principle? Some of you are thinking: “I didn’t know it was a principle. I just think it’s fun. I’m all for this KISS principle.” Well, the KISS principle has nothing to do with kissing and nothing to do with a wild-eyed rock band. KISS is an acronym for four words. Some of you know what they are: “Keep it Simple Stupid.” We’ll adopt the kid-friendly adaptation: Keep it Short & Simple. It’s a principle used in journalism, photography, engineering, software development, and other disciplines. My question for us today is this: Is KISS a good principle for a church? Is a church best- served by keeping things a simple as possible? Some people aren’t so sure. They are afraid that a church, in trying to keep things simple, will end up diluting some really important truths. It is possible to oversimplify some things, but simplifying is a very important practice. A critical piece of simplifying is to clarify what is most basic. It is clarifying what is core. I see Jesus doing this more than once, and I’d like for us to try and do it this morning. I want to start then with this question. Think about it, but don’t answer out loud. What is the single most important thing that a church does? If we did one thing and nothing else as a church, what would than one thing be? (Think about that for a moment. Perhaps you want to discuss some options with someone around you.) Jesus was once asked a question that is similar. I think His answer will help us to answer ours. One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" (The Bible, Matthew 22:35-36 NIV) Time out for a second. This is a setup; it’s a dangerous question. It’s like your wife asking you what quality about her that you love the most. Any answer could be trouble. I’d expect Jesus to say, “you can’t possibly answer such a question,” but He doesn’t. He answers the question. Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. (The Bible, Matthew 22:37-38 NIV) The most important thing you and I will ever do is to love God. If our church could only do one thing, it would have to be this: Love God with everything we have: With passion, with time, with words, with serving. Love God. This is simple. We have to be a church that loves God. We have to be a church that fosters a love for God. Love God. What does it mean to love God? What does that look like? It means to obey Him, to trust His words and heart. “This is love for God, to obey his commands. And his commands are not burdensome. ” 1 John 5:3 “Loving God” means to learn about God—His heart, His ways, His instructions. It means to honor God—to thank Him, to applaud Him. It means to enjoy God— walk humbly with Him. BTW, God doesn’t ask us to love Him because He is love-deprived or attention-starved. He asks us to love Him because it is the single most beneficial thing we can ever do. Ignoring God is bad for your health. The most important thing we ever do is to love God and encourage others to love Him. Jesus said it is the single greatest command ever; it is core. But Jesus didn’t stop there. He added: And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments." (The Bible, Matthew 22:39-40 NIV) Jesus: “You asked for the greatest command, but I have to tell you the top two, because they are extremely closely related. The second follows naturally on the heels of the first: Love people. “ Love people. In Jesus’ estimation, it is virtually impossible to have one without the other. This is an important theme in the Bible. Listen to this Bible instruction from First John: We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother. (The Bible, 1 John 4:19-21 NIV) It is impossible to love God without loving other people. If you are going to obey God, you have to follow the command that is dear to His heart: Love people. This is not “feeling” love; it is the choice to love. If you choose to love God, there are going to be people you don’t like so much. But you can’t stay there. You can’t say: “I’m going to love God, but certain people can go to heck, for all I care.” If you choose to ignore and mistreat people, you are choosing to ignore and mistreat God. Oh, and you can’t pick and choose who you will love. When Jesus was asked what the greatest command was, He said: “Love God with all you have and love your neighbor as yourself.” So, the guy asks him the logical question, “Who is my neighbor?” Jesus tells the story of how a hated foreigner assisted a Jew who had been mugged, and then he asked: “Who was the neighbor?” Jesus calls us to love everyone. We are called to love foreigners. We are called to love our spouse. We are called to love our enemies. And God calls us to love the toughest group of all: other Christians!! Love all people. Loving people is at the very heart of Who God is and who He wants us to be. Listen to some things the Bible says about loving people: This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another. (The Bible, 1 John 3:11, NIV) The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor as yourself." Love does no harm to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. (The Bible, Romans 13:9-10 NIV) Don’t commit adultery. Don’t murder. Don’t steal. Do those sound familiar? What are they? Sure, the Ten Commandments. The Bible says: “You can sum up much of the Ten Commandments with this: Love people.” Listen to this quote from Jesus: "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (The Bible, John 13:34-35 NIV) The command to love was not new. What was new was this: Love people like I love you. Extend the same grace, respect, forgiveness, and generosity that I have extended to you. Once again, Jesus moves toward simplicity. You know what is the one quality that will mark you off as my follower? Love people like I love them. Love people. If our church only did two things, these would have to be these two things: Love God. Love people. So vital are they that Jesus says this remarkable thing: “All the law and the prophets hang on these two commandments.” Do you realize what He is saying? The first half of the Bible, what we call “the Old Testament,” can be summed up in these two commands: Love God with all you have and love your neighbor as yourself. They are inextricably tied together. O.K. Rog, if the church has to pursue two things at its very core, why do you have three boxes on stage? Well, that’s because there is a third thing that is inextricably tied to the first two. We must love God above all else, and loving people is inseparable from loving God. Well, then, there is something that is inextricable to loving people. Let me read another Bible teaching and you see if you can figure out what it is. This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth. (The Bible, 1 John 3:16-18 NIV) What is inseparably tied to loving people? If you love people, you have to do what? You’ve got to act like it. You have got to serve. You cannot possibly love people without serving them. There is no such thing as love without action. You cannot separate love for people from serving people. Love acts. So, then, the third thing that a church must do is: Serve the World . This is, I believe, the core calling of the church: Love God.

OR Another definition for design is a roadmap or a strategic approach for someone to achieve a unique expectation. It defines the specifications, plans, parameters, costs, activities, processes and how and what to do within legal, political, social, environmental, safety and economic constraints in achieving that objective. Approaches to Design • A design approach is a general philosophy that may or may not include a guide for specific methods. Some are to guide the overall goal of the design. Other approaches are to guide the tendencies of the designer. A combination of approaches may be used if they don't conflict. • Some popular approaches include: • KISS principle, (Keep it Simple Stupid), which strives to eliminate unnecessary complications. • There is more than one way to do it(TIMTOWTDI), a philosophy to allow multiple methods of doing the same thing. • Use-centered design, which focuses on the goals and tasks associated with the use of the artifact, rather than focusing on the end user. • User-centered design, which focuses on the needs, wants, and limitations of the end user of the designed artifact. • Critical design uses designed artifacts as an embodied critique or commentary on existing values, morals, and practices in a culture.

  • The Influence of Three Instructional Strategies on The
    THE INFLUENCE OF THREE INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES ON THE PERFORMANCE OF THE OVERARM THROW DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Physical Activity and Educational Services at The Ohio State University By Kevin Michael Lorson * * * * THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY 2003 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Dr. Jackie Goodway, Advisor ______________________ Dr. Phillip Ward Adviser Dr. Tim Barrett College of Education ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of three instructional strategies on the performance of the overarm throw. A secondary purpose of the study is to examine the influence of gender and instruction on throwing performance. The three instructional strategies were a critical cue (CUE), a biomechanical (BP), and typical physical education approach (TPE). The CUE strategy consisted of three cues: laser beams, long step, and turn your hips fast. The BP strategy was a translation of biomechanical information into a four-stage strategy. The TPE strategy was based on Graham and colleagues (2001) critical elements. The dependent measures of throwing performance were body component levels, component levels during gameplay, and ball velocity. Participants (n=124) from six first and second-grade classes were systematically assigned to an instructional approach. Mean body component levels for the step, trunk, humerus and forearm along with mean recorded ball velocity were calculated from the 10 throwing trials at the pretest, posttest, and retention test. Additionally, participants’ body component levels for the step, trunk, and forearm demonstrated in a throwing game were correlated with the body component levels demonstrated during practice.

  • Axiomatic Design of Space Life Support Systems
    47th International Conference on Environmental Systems ICES-2017-82 16-20 July 2017, Charleston, South Carolina Axiomatic Design of Space Life Support Systems Harry W. Jones1 NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA, 94035-0001 Systems engineering is an organized way to design and develop systems, but the initial system design concepts are usually seen as the products of unexplained but highly creative intuition. Axiomatic design is a mathematical approach to produce and compare system architectures. The two axioms are: - Maintain the independence of the functional requirements. - Minimize the information content (or complexity) of the design. The first axiom generates good system design structures and the second axiom ranks them. The closed system human life support architecture now implemented in the International Space Station has been essentially unchanged for fifty years. In contrast, brief missions such as Apollo and Shuttle have used open loop life support. As mission length increases, greater system closure and increased recycling become more cost-effective. Closure can be gradually increased, first recycling humidity condensate, then hygiene waste water, urine, carbon dioxide, and water recovery brine. A long term space station or planetary base could implement nearly full closure, including food production. Dynamic systems theory supports the axioms by showing that fewer requirements, fewer subsystems, and fewer interconnections all increase system stability. If systems are too complex and interconnected, reliability is reduced and operations and maintenance become more difficult. Using axiomatic design shows how the mission duration and other requirements determine the best life support system design including the degree of closure. Nomenclature DP = Design Parameter DSM = Design Structure Matrix EVA = ExtraVehicular Activity FR = Functional Requirement KISS = Keep it simple, stupid QFD = Quality Function Deployment I.

  • The Kiss Principle in Survey Design: Question Length and Data Quality
    Survey Measurement Sociological Methodology 2016, Vol. 46(1) 121–152 Ó American Sociological Association 2016 DOI: 10.1177/0081175016641714 4 http://sm.sagepub.com THE KISS PRINCIPLE IN SURVEY DESIGN: QUESTION LENGTH AND DATA QUALITY Duane F. Alwin* Brett A. Beattie* Abstract Writings on the optimal length for survey questions are characterized by a variety of perspectives and very little empirical evidence. Where evidence exists, support seems to favor lengthy questions in some cases and shorter ones in others. However, on the basis of theories of the survey response process, the use of an excessive number of words may get in the way of the respondent’s comprehension of the information requested, and because of the cognitive burden of longer questions, there may be increased measure- ment errors. Results are reported from a study of reliability estimates for 426 (exactly replicated) survey questions in face-to-face interviews in six large-scale panel surveys conducted by the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center. The findings suggest that, at least with respect to some types of survey questions, there are declining levels of reliability for questions with greater numbers of words and provide further support for the advice given to survey researchers that questions should be as short as possible, within constraints defined by survey objectives. Findings rein- force conclusions of previous studies that verbiage in survey questions— either in the question text or in the introduction to the question—has *Pennsylvania State University, University Park, PA, USA Corresponding Author: Duane F.

MURRAY_PROOF (DO NOT DELETE) 2/7/2013 10:54 AM DIOS MIO—The KISS Principle of the Ethical Approach to Copyright and Right of Publicity Law Michael D. Murray* ABSTRACT To copy or not to copy, to exploit the famous celebrity image or not to exploit it; these are the questions. The message of the modern legal world communicated through multiple voices in the academy is that copying often is perfectly acceptable and even laudable. An artist or designer might conclude that it is both legal and ethical to use whatever you can, use whatever you can get away with, and use it until you get sued for using it. Yet plagiarism in the arts and sciences is nearly universally condemned. This Article proposes an ethical approach to the use of copyrighted works and names, images, and likenesses protected by the right of publicity. This approach is based on the ethical requirements of the law as synthesized from the cases presenting concrete narratives concerning fair and appropriate uses of protected works, names, and images.

It also addresses training considerations for NRC staff to enhance public meetings. The various sources referenced throughout describe ways to engage the public in a meaningful way that leads to mutual understanding of the issues and increased satisfaction that public input contributed to the decision making process. For example, the three published papers highlighted in this memorandum provide model approaches in which organizations (including government agencies) may approach public participation. Viewed collectively, the papers document the importance of a clearly defined purpose for public participation, well defined processes for involving the public, a commitment to engage members of the public because they have a right to be involved, the necessity of going beyond minimum outreach requirements to achieve meaningful dialogue, and other factors. Though each paper offered varied techniques for achieving meaningful public participation, they collectively provide significant insight into ways in which to ensure public engagement in projects that potentially involve health, safety, the environment, energy, or quality of life.
