This book, "The Glory of Yahweh" will inspire everyone who wants a
closer relationship with God. Know God, feel God, touch God and let
God touch you. We need to go back to the altar of praising and
worshipping God. Since the age of 5 years - the Lord has had His
hands over my life, not just for protection. It goes beyond that -
it's an all around blessing. I heard the call to lift up His name
and worship Him. God's purpose was for me to lift up His name. I
felt God was taking me through tests of what it takes to be a
worshipper. I felt I was on a journey of experiences with God. It
felt like a training field for what was to come. My mother waited
on God throughout the hard times concerning my life. At times she
thought I was going to go to heaven before my time. God preserved
my life to worship Him. Worship The Lord in the beauty of Holiness.
Seek first the Kingdom of God and his righteousness and every thing
else will fall in place. Worship is a place of knowing God
personally. It's a place of drawing strength from God, and a place
that is refreshing and uplifting. Let's go back to a place of
praising and worshipping God our father. Let's go back to the
throne room of God.

interest to study abroad researchers and practitioners, including
the role of individual differences, identity reconstruction and
interculturality, the challenges of assessing learning outcomes,
and recent pedagogical interventions designed to enhance and extend
language learning and engagement in these contexts. The volume also

A growing number of foreign language students are taking part in
study and residence abroad programs but what actually happens when
they cross cultures in an unfamiliar land? What effect can a
sojourn have on their sense of self and their perceptions of the
target language and culture? What factors affect their willingness
to use the target language in social settings? This book is based
on the premise that student sojourners and educators can benefit
from a deeper understanding of the language, identity, and cultural
factors that impact on the development of intercultural
communicative competence and intercultural personhood, "a new,
alternative identity that is broader, more inclusive, more
intercultural...something that will always contain the old and the
new side by side to form "a third kind" - a kind that allows more
openness and acceptance of differences in people" (Kim, 2001:
232-3). Linking contemporary sociocultural/identity theories with
practice, the relationship between language and cultural learning
and identity reconstruction are examined through an ethnographic
exploration of the actual experiences of study abroad participants.
The book provides a unique, interdisciplinary perspective,
addressing issues of importance to professionals in second language
acquisition, sociolinguistics, cross-cultural psychology, speech
communication, and intercultural communication.
