Linda Thomas – författare

This is an elementary introduction to syntactic analysis. Assuming no prior knowledge of the subject whatsoever, it is intended for students who are encountering such analysis for the first time. For those embarking on a longer term study of syntax, this will be a valuable and quickly assimilated foundation course. For students who will need to use syntax as a basic descriptive tool - such as trainee teachers, speech therapists or students of literacy style - the book provides a framework for their analysis and practice in its use. The book begins by looking at the use of generalizations in describing sentence structure and the basis for word categories. It then moves through increasingly more complex constructions giving students plenty of opportunity by way of practical exercises to understand the basis of each analysis before moving further. The aim of the book is not to explore complex issues of argumentation. Its emphasis is on practical "hands on" analysis.

Do you have a dirty mind? No, not that kind of mind-but a mind that allows negative thinking to steal your happiness. If so, then it is time to clean the filth between your ears and make room for a mindset that empowers you to live your perfect purpose and become who God intended for you to be.

The Dirty-Minded Christian introduces a simple transformative principle to help you ADAPT2 lifes daily challenges and equip yourself for success. You cant always control what happens in the world around you; but there is one thing that only you can control-how you interpret your thoughts and respond to lifes events, no matter how trivial. The key is the ADAPT2 Principle and authors Kirk and Linda Thomas will help you take advantage of their real-life scenarios, some humorous insights and the gift of grace to trust in God to guide you.

The ADAPT2 Principle will help you:

Access your optimal A-Attitude to guide the way you experience your surroundings.Dig deep inside for the D-Discipline required to push yourself toward your goals.Take the A-Action necessary to put your plans into motion.Understand that most things that require P-Patience are worth the wait.Realize that everything, including your mind, requires constant T-Training and education.T-Trust in God in all you do, all the time.

The ADAPT2 Principle will help, regardless of your background. So, if you have a dirty mind, dont worry about it; youre human! Youre not alone, and with these techniques, concepts and strategies, things will begin to improve. You will shift from stressing about what you are going to do, to confidently asking yourself; how can I ADAPT2 this?
