      I have noticed that some educators take this goal by students as a personal attack on them; when I unpackage events with students they often have no concept of the impact of heir actions on the teacher, administrator or support worker they are overwhelming. It turns out that there is no personal attack-ironically this is developmentally in character.

      I understand this line and I see it as a reflection of the Father's grace to us, but I wrestle with it in terms of the true sense of vocation-how does grace and the tasks tied to "calling" come together. I don't know...

      I guess I need to ask the reverse of this observation, at what point does our irrelevence become a handicap? In student life, ones asks the question tied to age, can I still connect with college students in relational and mentoring roles when I am 50 or 55 or... I understand Nouwen's corrective, but I still have contextual and relevency questions.

      However, this would have been pretty impressive!!! However raising the dead and walking on water are fairly significant.

      We often use this book to train our student leaders in the significance and definition of a community, as well as a primer for building a community.

    I have read the article, I have watched the tutorials but am missing something because when I open the link to the article I cannot highlight or sticky note it. I would love to interact with the document... I can interact with class comments and will proceed that way, but I would love to figure out how to use the rest of the tools. This is where a frustrated face would be relevant.

    I am using Internet Explorer on a deck top (in my office). On the highlighted notes which show up when I hit the "expand" link of the article, there is a "sticky note" option. So I can respond to already highlighted quotes, but am unable to create new highlighted observations. The installation of the toolbar may be the missing item. I will check through the tutorials, please say tuned.

    Thanks,

    Scot, I figured it out.

    The tool bar took a little time but it is now on. I highlighted text and placed sticky notes on them. One question-why are some created with a bubble? For instance when I put a sticky note on Bonhoeffer's book in the bibliography a bubble was attached...

    Just wondering. Thanks for your guidance.

    Scot, I do appreciate your clear instructions: I am not sure if I will remember how to do this in a couple of months. But I am here right now....
