* A church gathering (including dockworkers) is held to find out who murdered Joey. Terry is sent by Johnny to rat them out.

Joe was on his way to Eatonville to make a better life for himself, he asked Janie where her parents were and Janie explained that she is married and her husband was out getting a mule for her to plow. Joe expresses that that is not a way for her to be treated and asks her to leave Logan and marry him.

Jesus Christ is the central figure of Christianity, the only way of salvation and the second person of the Trinity. (Funk & Wagnalls, 2015) The Gospels Matthew and Luke introduce the birth and childhood of God’s one and only Son, Jesus. His story began when the Angel Gabriel visited His virgin mother, announcing that she would give birth to a son, and that she was to call Him Jesus, for He would be called the Son of God. (Luke 1:30-35) The incarnation of the Messiah, was the Word

“The virgin will be with child and she will give birth to a son”       - Matthew 1:23

So one day she meets Joe Starks and after spending some time together, Janie asks Logan what he would do if she ran away. Logan, rather than responding honestly, lies and hides his true feelings through insults. Janie learns that a marriage does not always withhold love. Love is something that must come naturally without force or thought and Janie sees that she has no such feeling towards Logan. Hence Janie runs off with Joe Starks and Logan is never heard of again.

Chapter four begins with the honeymoon period ending, and some resentment starting.The chapter starts with Logan begins to compare her to his first wife, explaining how she chopped wood with him. He believes she should be doing more manual labor, and maintain the house if she wants to be better than his first wife. When Logan leaves to get another mule, Janie finds finds Joe Starks, a.k.a Jody, “… a cityfied, stylish dressed man” (Hurston 27). Jody talks to Janie about how she can make her feel like a woman, and proclaims a secret marriage. When Logan returns, he argues with Janie about their relationship, and the next morning Logan yells at Janie to help him shovel manure. Janie decides she has had enough and leaves Logan to get married to Jody, and run away with him.

These sixty acres allowed to him to accumulate wealth that the average African American did not have. This wealth along with age difference also hindered his relationship with Janie heavily. Through all long relationships the partners go through change and they have to adapt to those changes. The wealth and age made Logan unable to change who he was as a person it was too late. Since he was no longer able to change it once again proves that Janie’s relationship with him was doomed from the start. Logan also tried to manipulate her into staying with him by telling no man out there will take care of her the way he did. Janie’s relationship with Logan was always a toxic one. Logan was meant to protect her and keep her safe but ironically he only drove her away. Their last argument was the final straw Janie was done and ready to leave. This failure of a marriage is what led Janie to take a chance with a new man someone who she believed would finally treat her right. In reality this choice led to a new marriage and the biggest learning experience of her life.
