Jerry L. Parks

iUniverse, Inc., 2004

The most practical book on Christian living on the market!
The following is an excerpt from a letter I wrote to the books author, Jerry Parks, after finishing the book, which I thankfully purchased after stumbling on to some positive reviews on Amazon: [I just wanted to write you and thank you for your fine book on the life principles of Joseph. I stumbled on to it on Amazon and thought it sounded interesting, so I bought it. I read it once and my ...

God, Help Me Pray!: Emails to God on the Teaching of Prayer for Teachers and New Christians

9 reviews

"If you thought you knew everything about prayer, think again!"
I can't add much to what the others have said except this should be required reading for all new Christians. I never knew there was so much involved with praying. Like most others I just assumed praying was talking to my heavenly Father, but after reading this book I guess that's like saying a family relationship is just talking to a parent. Here are what I call the 'positives' in "God, ...

Dragons, Grasshoppers, & Frogs!: A Pocket Guide To The Book Of Revelation For Teenagers And Newbies!

"This little handbook is the finest short work on Revelation I've ever read. Loved it!"
I am not a teenager or new Christian--the target audience for this book. I also thought I knew the Book of Revelation pretty well, having studied about the Millennium, the Rapture, and the Second Coming for many (many) years. So why did I get this book? Partly because if Dave Reagan liked it (see his comment) it must be pretty good (I love 'Lamb & Lion' ministry), but mostly because I so loved ...

Great resource, a MUST for parents of Sixth Graders!
When I saw the title of this book, I was hooked. That was exactly how I felt - my baby was going to middle school, and I wasn't sure what to expect! Having read other books by Dr. Parks, I knew this one would be useful, and it was! In this book, there are lessons about homework, behavior, character, peer pressure, learning independence, gaining responsibility, and so much more. My child ...

An Illustrated Guide to Endangered or Threatened Species in Kansas
Suzanne L. Collins, Jerry Horak, ...

University Press of Kansas, 1995

Ranging from the unfamiliar to the famous--from the inconspicuous, plankton-sucking Elktoe Mussel to the majestic, soaring Bald Eagle--endangered or threatened plants and animals of Kansas continue to play a vital, although diminished, role in the state's ecology. Providing, for the first time, easily accessible information for the professional naturalist and amateur nature lover alike, this guide highlights the habits and habitats of sixty ...

Teacher Under Construction: Things I Wish I'd Known!: A Survival Handbook for New Middle School Teachers

Weekly Reader Teacher's Press, 2004

"A must-have gem for the new or initially-licensed middle-school teacher. Your pedagogy classes don't cover this..."
NOTE: I am submitting this as a copy of the review from AvanteGuard Teacher's website, since it is what I might say. TOP PICK: If I'd had Teacher Under Construction, a book written specifically for middle-school teachers, I suspect I would have gotten more sleep, fewer headaches, and organized my time more effectively. This book is a must-have gem for the new or initially-licensed ...

A Gilgamesh Play For Teen Readers: A Tale of the First Myth & Legend of Ancient Mesopotamia for Middle & High ...

Who knew ancient history could be this fun?!!
"A Gilgamesh Play for Teen Readers" is a GREAT teaching resource! I've taught seventh grade social studies ancient history for a number of years, and this play exactly fits the bill! Written for teens, this play tells the classic story of Gilgamesh and Enkidu in language that middleschoolers can understand and learn from. Sumerian culture and history are embedded so subtly, that students won't ...

God, Help Me Pray!: Personal Workbook & Prayer Journal

Jerry L Parks

Weekly Reader Teacher's Press, 2007

Great workbook to help personal bible study!
This is a great workbook that is a companion to the study book of the same title by Mr. Parks. I had begun reading the book when I did get a copy of the workbook. I couldn't believe how much the workbook helped! The book offers many reflective questions for a person or a bible study group to consider. It's great for offering a structure for a lesson, as well as for an individual to really ...

Mentoring the NBPTS Candidate: A Facilitator's Guide: A Mentors Handbook for Successfully Coaching the NBPTS ...

"Kudos on a work long needed!"
Simply put, there are very few pickings when it comes to help for NBPTS mentors. Perhaps because of the need for such, Dr. Parks wrote this book. I don't know, but until something better comes along--and this one's pretty darn good--this book will be the standard. Let's face it, books on mentoring are not too interesting, but good ones should at least be helpful. As a mentor, I appreciate the ...
