Five-Year Personal Growth Plan

students beginning their journey of academic biblical studies and is supposed to be used as a guide

Courage & Calling by Gordon T. Smith is a book about embracing one’s God-given potential. He talks about responsibilities and obligations as Christians, and how they are ultimately tied back to God. Smith also focuses on the differences between occupation and vocations, and how we are to navigate through different transitions in one’s life, and how all is linked back to being proper stewards.

The message of my work is to try and highlight the importance of showing how a person’s faith can have a positive and life-changing impact on their lives. I have done this by looking into the lives of two early Christian missionaries and portray how they would 've felt about their journeys, who they met and what they were teaching others. In doing so, I try to portray, to the best of my ability and knowledge, the apostle 's thoughts and just how strong their conviction and faith in God was.

Through this assignment, we will examine individual traits and how they integrate into organizational behavior. This project is conveyed from the first-person based on my personal experiences and results based on my answers from the “Project 2 Assessment” from McGraw Hill Connect. From the information gathered we discuss in three-parts, my personality triats, working with others, and my experience within an organizational setting. My paper will culminate by discussing my personal reflection of my strengths and weaknesses regarding the engagement of the Holy Spirit through them.

This chart is intended to be used as an aid to studying the Abrahamic Covenant that would be found in Genesis. It is a simple tabular formatted chart. The material is done in a logical chapter:verse order starting with Genesis 12 and completing in Genesis 50. It was attempted to show all the verses that either outright mentioned a covenant or at least implied a covenant.

For my book review I chose The Reason for God by Timothy Keller. I have read this book before, but I wanted to go through again, summarize and analyze it. The purpose of this paper will be to summarize The Reason for God and analyze it’s writing style and arguments. The Reason for God defends knowledge of God and is naturally an apologetic work. Interestingly enough though, it reads more like a pastoral than it does an apologetic work.

These two books are a second and third editions of my book, Surrendering: A Blueprint of My Life. It was interesting how these two books came into existence.

Welcome Chariss! You have written seven nonfiction books on personal growth for the body, mind, and spirit; could you give a synopsis of what got you onto the personal/spiritual growth path?

The spiritual life of each person in the world is as individual as a fingerprint. Thousands of different religions create a myriad of outlines for worship, but every personal belief system is unique. “The Three Hermits” by Leo Tolstoy tells of three holy men living a silent life of prayer on an island by themselves. When an Archbishop catches word of them, he insists on diverting his own travel route so that he may visit the hermits. With diligence, he teaches the men the Our Father and departs to return to his ship. Later, the three hermits chase after the ship as if they were running on ground, for they forgot the Our Father and wished to be retaught by the Bishop. Crossing himself, the Bishop assures the hermits that their prayers will be heard by God and asks that they pray for him and other sinners.

The personality assessment inventory tests provide results on my individual personality, values, motivation, decision making, communication, team skills, conflict skills, organizational structure preference, and stress. These results are broken down briefly in three parts and do not include any personal speculation or analysis as to their meaning. The application of these results are further applied and explains how the results noted from the tests and in the first step will make me a better employee, co-worker, and manager within my organization. These tests mentioned above are applied in conjunction with particular examples on how I can achieve becoming a better employee, co-worker, and manager. An explanation of how my personality and experiences were affected by the Holy Spirit is also discussed. Particularly, how potential weaknesses have become strengths with the guidance of the Lord.

We were so lucky to have had such great sources to read from this quarter. Some of my favorite content came from Stone’s “Compassionate Ministry – Theological Foundations”. Stone writes, “(Faith) is the attitude that we bring to our activity, which transforms it and makes it human, thereby also making it the image-of-God-in-action.” It’s easy to have faith, God is all around us, he wants us to be “in” him, always. When we bring faith with us, to where we are and where we are going, we take God with us, we are acting and living in the way God intended. The faith, the attitude we bring, we carry allow us to reach out to those who long for a time in the light and love of God but have somehow fallen away; compassion for one another brings us closer, closer to the plan God has for us all.

Each individual is just that: individual. We all have our strengths and weakness. Life is about exploring and improving on those. Growth never ends. It is expanding our minds and attitudes to make life happy and peaceful. My development depends what I do to accomplish my life goals. My carrier path will depend on how I can grow and develop in my field and management capabilities.
