Summit Event Essay The event that was held in Moody Coliseum, September 22, 2015, was conducted by Raymond Carr, his sermon was over, " Lost in Knowledge of Christ." He pulls from Philippians 3:1-11, where Paul challenges us to lose our religion; and choose a relationship. Paul uses two directives that lead to a right relationship with Christ. Raymond Carr first comments on how Paul emphasizes the theme of joy. Carr tells us that Paul repeats this a couple of times. Paul emphasizes that, whatever your circumstance, you should always rejoice in God 's attributes and His provisions. Paul continues by saying: " To write the same things again is no trouble to me, and it is a safeguard for you." Paul 's frequent saying to rejoice during affliction, because if he continues to tell us this we can work to rejoice and not forget it, or even cynical. Paul wants for the believer to stand strong in their time of need, to be steady and secure in their faith as well. Carr hints at that the simple reason for repetition is that: Words sink in over time. Truths need to be emphasized, impact, and retention. Carr then goes to 3:2-6, where Paul explores the danger of religion and religious people. He warns about the Judaizers, by saying, "Beware of the dogs, beware of the evil workers, beware of the false circumcision." Paul is warning the church to look over your shoulder because people in the church aren 't really what they say they are. Paul calls the Judaizers "dogs." Dogs were not the cute

I’d like to admit I did a little digging, I wasn’t sure if I was one to believe in the internet making me stupid, so I took the time to read Nicholas Carr’s whole article, first however before I make my claim I’d like to say reading this entire article from beginning to end was a struggle, I found myself bored and uninterested, not that the article was the least bit boring or uninteresting I just couldn’t concentrate. I was waiting for a friend to reply to a message, I wanted to see what was happening on twitter and I desperately wanted to see the welcome week photos my friends had been posting on Instagram. One of Carr’s worries includes “what the Net seems to be doing is chipping away my capacity for concentration and contemplation… Once I was a scuba diver in the sea of words.

This book was created alongside History Channel 's documentary series of the same topic. Even though they contain the same material, it is presented differently in both sources. While the documentary tends to focus on each day by itself, the book draws themes to tie together ten days in American history that changed the future of the nation. This book tries to bring to light the days in American history that are undervalued, in exchange for the large and well known events like the signing of the declaration and Pearl Harbor.

Every author has their own personal writing style, the format of their story may conform or deviate from the standard conventions of a genre. I am analyzing the book Held by Edeet Ravel to answer a larger question, which is whether this novel features the common characteristics found in one specific genre. Held is a novel written about a young teenager named Chloe Mills, who is captured during her summer break and held hostage for a prisoner exchange, in the story there is a sense of thrill, conflict and uncertainty as the protagonist tries to break free but instead falls in love with her abductor.

Chloe narrates the entire story as she reflects on her personal life, feelings and emotions; this reason allows this novel to tie with the genre of women’s fiction as well. This genre explores the dynamics of a female protagonists relationship with her
