With increasing numbers of international students, this book explores how best to broaden the approaches to learning and teaching in the higher/further education environment. Rather than seeing internationalization as a problem to be addressed, this text embraces the opportunities for the enrichment of the learning environment through a values-driven approach to internationalization. Taking a positive and practical approach to internationalizing higher education, the book considers a range of questions about how to bring in global perspectives to the learning environment and education provision. Packed with case studies and vignettes from around the globe, the book proposes that the international student lies at the heart of the university as a source of cultural capital and intentional diversity, enriching the learning experience, enhancing staff experience and building a more powerful learning community.

What can preachers do to help congregants navigate everyday life with the courage and creativity needed to testify to God’s mercy and justice? The effectiveness of Christianity's witness relies on credible lives lived in ordinary settings. This resource assists preachers in crafting sermons that empower believers to act with improvisational courage in their daily lives. It explores how preachers can inspire “ordinary prophets” who, in Christ's name, act as agents of redemptive interruption in both significant and subtle ways. Drawing from her extensive experience in parish ministry and training, the author shares strategies that enable these ordinary prophets to take bold action. She begins by reexamining the power and limitations of the missional model of Christian witness, arguing for a more adaptive, imaginative, and improvisational approach. The connection between Sunday sermons and the congregation's ability to engage in timely, inventive actions during the week is emphasized. This resource aims to inspire both preachers and their listeners to transition from the sanctuary to the streets, eager to engage in the ongoing, redemptive work of God in their everyday lives.
