Telling the Truth at the speed of life.    (Monday, 06-Feb-2012 22:01:06 PST)

Leadership Institute

The Christian Professor in the Secular University
Dr. Joseph (Rae) Mellichamp, professor emeritus of the University of Alabama, has created a notebook of strategies he has used over years of ministry. This notebook represents the entire spectrum of ministry opportunities for Christian university and college professors and professional staff.
 
How to Make Tenure
Dr. Joseph (Rae) Mellichamp, professor emeritus of the University of Alabama, conducts seminars to help Christian faculty members obtain tenure. How to Make Tenure is the contents of a slide presentation he uses in his seminar.
 
The Christian Faculty/Staff Fellowship
The Christian university professor or staff member who is serious about having an influence for Christ on his or her institution will quickly realize that to achieve the maximum influence, one must work together with other like-minded Christians on the campus. This is the principle of synergy at work -- the simultaneous action of separate agencies which, together, have greater total effect than the sum of their individual effects. The question is how does one go about initiating cooperative relationships with other Christian professors and staff in the midst of all of the demands and pressures of daily institutional activity? The answer is the Christian Faculty/Staff Fellowship which Dr. Rae Mellichamp describes in this paper.
 
Christian Student Survival Conference
The Christian Faculty Forum of the University of Georgia sponsored a weekend "Christian Student Survival Conference: Helping Students Thrive in College" April 23 - 24, 1999. The conference was designed to show that a living relationship with Christ is an intellectually defensible commitment and to equip students to address challenges to faith they will receive in college. This is the complete lecture notes and reading materials from the conference.
 
Faculty Impact Series
The Faculty Impact Series is a series of ministry strategies to help Christian faculty members minister effectively on their campuses. These strategies have been used effectively by faculty members on a number of different types of campuses. They will help you as you seek to impact students and peers with the gospel.
 
The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People Discussion Notes
If you are like most Christian professors, you have felt a burden for your colleagues and have wanted to reach out to them, to minister to them -- especially those closest to you. Perhaps you just haven't done so because you haven't been able to think of an appropriate way. One of the real keys of ministry is to address felt needs. Perhaps the universally perceived need of professors in academia is time management, effectiveness. What better way to minister to busy colleagues who are all under pressure to produce than to offer to help them become more effective. Dr. Joseph (Rae) Mellichamp, professor emeritus of the University of Alabama, created a set of discussion notes for the highly popular book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People that has proven useful in ministering to colleagues.
 
The Man in the Mirror Discussion Notes
Dr. Joseph (Rae) Mellichamp suggests continuing to minister to colleagues through Patrick Morley's book The Man in the Mirror. Dr. Mellichamp has prepared extensive discussion notes to assist you in continuing your ministry. He writes, "A study of The Man in the Mirror is an excellent follow-on to the Seven Habits. You need to be up front in communicating that while the Seven Habits is a secular study, The Man in the Mirror is a Christian approach."
