Bruce Olson: The Strengths Of Bruchko

Glenn Rozycki is a 25 year old resident of Scarborough, Ontario who left school at York University after one year because he felt that he would be happier running his own car detailing business. Glenn wants to start up a new company, Custom Car Care, cleaning and detailing cars. Glenn began this venture as a part time job but he wants to turn it into his full time job. To ensure that his business will be successful, especially in comparison to other similar businesses in his area, Glenn must make sure his business idea is realistic, sustainable, and profitable.

The town of Bannack was established on July 28, 1862 due to gold strike at Grasshopper creek. The city was small and put together quickly with logs, but briefly served as the capital of Montana Territory in 1864 (Bannack, Montana, 2017). Bannack was very remote and it was only connected to the rest of the world by the Montana Trail which lead to extremely high crime rates and a low population. The miners in Bannack earned $8 a day which is equivalent to a pound of chewing tobacco and a dollar as change. In 1865, the residents relocated to more productive gold sites situated along Alder Gulch.

David Brearley also made significant contributions to the U.S. Constitution. Brearley was the head of the Committee on Postponed Parts (pg 211) which was a big job. The Committee on Postponed Parts “had to define Congress’s powers to impose taxes and to make war, to decide whether to authorize copyrights and patents, and to plan for the seat of the new government.” (pg 211) The most important job of the Committee though was the matter of structuring the entire executive branch of the U.S. government. When Brearley's committee first presented their plan a few delegates opposed and the committee reworked the plan leading to the original elector system (pg 212). On September 4th Brearley presented the committee's redone plan which was approved

I chose to evaluate my home church's missions program for this paper. A big part of this decision was curiosity; I had never in my five years at my home church heard anything of a well-formed missions program, and upon receiving this assignment became very intrigued. I interviewed a good friend of mine, who is also an elder at Kentwood Christian Church, by the name of Mike Boumis.

In Chapter 1 of They Say/I Say, Graff and Birkenstein express their idea of templates and how to handle them. After doing something continuously, it becomes a routine to our mind and body. Templates help structure our ideas so that they can become a routine to us. These templates allow us to state our own ideas while also bring in the thoughts of others. Graff and Birkenstein also say how these templates stifle creativity and avoid the use of plagiarism.

I had the privilege of interviewing Brian Bagwell for this project. He is, in my opinion, one of most humble, wisest man we have at Church of the Highlands. Once you get through a joke or two, the fruits of the spirit radiate from his personality. A man that I have the privilege to call my mentor and teacher. He is currently serving on staff at the Church of the Highlands as a Dream Team Coordinator. His shares the vision of the church which is passed down from our senior pastor, Chris Hodges. Evangelism is the definition of the church so to speak, Church of the Highlands stands behind the final authority of God’s word which is the bible. It is often said among the staff “we do not argue the essentials, but we can disagree the non essentials.” The church believes and acts in spreading the good news of Jesus Christ, and helping people move through four steps our God has outlined in the Great Commission. Our Church exists to see people saved, delivered, redeemed, and fulfilled. This is accomplished with four systems that allow the people to move through the four steps. The first is weekend services to allow them to know God (saved), small groups to find freedom (delivered), growth track to discover purpose (redeemed), and dream team to be fulfilled and make a difference (fulfilled). This vision is how the church evangelizes (Bagwell). This vision is clear to all members of the church who call Church of the Highlands home, and even clear to people

Western Christians in global missions by Paul Borthwick is about the interdependence and unity of the global Church. The book starts at the conclusion of an era of missions where North America has taken the helm. As the global missions community changes, North America needs to reassess its role. There are 4 main integrated points that Borthwick makes that should change the perspective of the white American middle class missionary.

Barbash Uses logos, pathos, and ethos to really help pull in a variety of readers.

One strength was that Donovan explained the chapters with much detail. It is essential that when writing a book that is meant to provide information that it is detailed enough. He did an excellent job explaining very important details.

Through Gates of Splendor was really confusing at times because it had several viewpoints and it didn’t show where the views changed, resulting in people reading and then the view changes and then the reader gets confused and what they’re reading. Another struggle, was the pictures, the author inserted the pictures in the middle of the text, so people would be reading and then they have to stop the reading, look at the pictures and then read where it left off at.Other than those difficulties the book was a pretty interesting and point making, because it show what may happen if people become a missionary, it shows the struggles of it can be like and it shows how civilized countries have it better then they think they do. This biography show that these five missionarys were giving 100 percent at what they were doing and they were willing to even sacrifice their lives for the sake of the Indians and

We know several people who have been on short-term mission trips. Perhaps you’ve even been on one yourself and proclaimed to others that you gained more from that trip than the people you went to serve. Maybe you’re a full-time missionary living in another nation (at least for the majority of the year). Most likely, you’re an average church member who knows the Great Commission but doesn’t feel called to long-term overseas ministry. Regardless of where you stand, “Missions” by Andy Johnson is an excellent introduction to missions. Johnson provides readers with ways to be mission-minded, live missional lifestyles, and serve those who are on mission at home and abroad.

“I have carefully and thoroughly read the entire book as assigned.” Throughout David Platt’s book, “Radical : Taking Back Your Faith From the American Dream”, he encourages the reader to take a look at their life and see whether or not Christ is all they need to impact their life for Jesus in a radical way. He asks the reader to carefully examine their life, and see if there are areas that perhaps the Lord would desire for change to take place. Platt challenges the Church to step up and see the urgency in missions realizing that this is the way God designed the lost and dying world to hear the Good News of the Risen and Glorified Savior Jesus Christ.

Christmas is one of the most celebrated holidays in the United States. From Christmas carols to holiday parties, this celebration seems to be deeply embedded in American Culture. How has this holiday and its traditions become so prevalent in the United States? Historian Stephen Nissenbaum attempted to answer this question and in doing so challenged the old assumptions about Christmas and its traditions in his book The Battle for Christmas. In this book, he discussed how historians have previously studied Christmas in an isolated manner away from culture (page xii).

Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was broken down so that I could read a section at a time and still know what was going on. I also liked that it discussed easy ways to become a better leader. Many of the subjects
