Terry Tempest Williams and Wangari Maathai are both very powerful women who devoted their lives to improving the world one step at a time. Williams, the author of Refuge, is a naturalist, a feminist, and a writer who brings such power into everything she touches. Her passion for change has brought so much goodness into the world. She has beat many obstacles, including her own struggle with herself, which to her is the same fight we have with nature, and finally accepting the outcome; whatever that may be unnatural, or natural, is the secret to life. While we read about what Terry Tempest Williams writes about her mother’s difficulties while struggling with cancer, we also have Wangari Maathai speaking about all the violence she faces in Kenya.

Sims, but to his heroic negro subjects, Anarcha, Betsey, and Lucy.” The nauseating pain and detail that Sims pitilessly narrates in his own autobiography discounts the suffering of these women. The undocumented stories from Sims’ slaves themselves are retold as accounts of bravery and courage in later chapters with only a passing mention of concern for their well-being amongst his pages of self praise (Sims 1855). However, Dr. Sims hid his subjects’ race when reporting his results and even went as far to illustrate his operations on white upper class women in his findings. Medical journals later omitted the subjects’ race entirely (Washington 2006). After the successful operations, Sims was honored as president of the American Medical Association, was awarded decorations from Portugal, Spain, Belgium, France, and Italy, a statue that currently stands across from the New York Academy of Medicine, and is affectionately called the “father of gynecology” (Spettel and White 2010). He is also admired for founding the Woman’s Hospital of the State of New York and being an advocate of women’s health (Leonardo 1944). In addition, a marker stands in South Carolina at the birthplace of Dr. James Marion Sims that states, “Sims was honored by the American and European governments for his service to suffering women, empress and slave alike” (Spettel and White 2010).

Daniel trusted God with his life, and the Lord saved him from the lions. Persecution still happened throughout the new testament when missionaries were trying to spread the good news of Jesus’ story to the world. An interesting example of this is Saul the persecutor turned to Paul the missionary. Saul is known as one of the worst persecutors to christians at his time. But the Lord had a plan for him and turned Saul's life around and made his Paul who is known as one of the greatest and most famous missionaries in the bible. I’ve always been taught that God has a plan and that is something I try to live by reminding myself of Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” The middle east once the main region of the christian religion in the bible is now a place that christians

Daniel had an intimate relationship with God. Like Job, he loves God, and talking to God in prayer was the fundamental part of his existence. Admiringly, he failed not to pray three times in a day. Hence, when King Darius signed a law that prohibited anybody to pray to any god or human being, except for the King himself, and if anybody would be caught praying for thirty days, that person would definitely be thrown into a lion’s dungeon. (Daniel 6:9) However, Daniel ignored the law and continued to pray to God three times a day. Because of this, Daniel was punished to get locked up into the lion’s dungeon. However, since Daniel was innocent before God, hence, God saved him from the roaring lions that he came out of Lion’s dungeon safely. And
