I enjoyed your post discussing the importance of Scripture memorization and practical ways to memorize. I have found that as I get older it gets harder to memorize Scripture. For me the way I need to memorize involves what Goldstein calls deep processing. “Deep processing involves close attention, focusing on an item’s meaning and relating it to something else” (Goldstein, 2015, p. 181). If I can relate a Scriptural passage to what I am going through I have a better time at memorization. To start memorizing Scripture I need to write it down allowing myself time to digest what I am memorizing. “By writing the full verse down in a notebook some productivity experts and writers believe that writing helps you to better retain information”
I am assuming you were already a member of the church, but not a part of the Senior's Bible Study. You used wisdom to evaluate the senior's class and sought out the missing pieces of the learning puzzle. It was great that God led you to use illustration materials for the seniors because everyone learns in a different manner.
I love the passages of comfort because its telling you where you can look on the bible vesicle’s that will help you manage any situation you might be going thru at the moment. Not only sad or bad situations but happy and thankful emotions you might be experiencing at the time. Having God as our main priority in our life it’s a blessing because when we follow his path things will fall into place. At least for me that’s how it works.
Third piece of advice is listening to audio tapes of scripture. There are many benefits to listening to audio tapes. Audio tapes change the style of informing from reading to hearing. Hearing someone else read scripture also presents a new way of acknowledging the scripture. Lastly, audio tapes gives us the ability to play them over.
Richard Van Camp's, The Lesser Blessed, contains elements that classify the novel with both Indigenous and Modern genres. Featuring both genres in a text can lead to contradicting themes that form a binary. This binary has the potential to limit the extent readers can connect to the story, suggesting the presence of a barrier. Barriers hinder the readers' lack of understanding or relatability to either Indigenous or Modern works of literature. This paper will serve to analyze how Richard Van Camp deconstructs the binary by having the sides work together rather than against one another. Furthermore, this paper will discuss how by breaking down the binary, Richard Van Camp is allowing his novel to be accessible to all readers.
In this set of materials, the reading passage is a historical definition of the electoral system in the United States of America, and the listening passage describes some negative points of this electoral system.

Voting is one of the great rights that every American citizen is entitled to. It gives Americans the chance to voice their pleasure, or displeasure, with those who represent them in public office by selecting who they believe best represents their values and beliefs. But who organizes the candidates? What are they affiliated with? The answer is political parties. A political party is an organization of people who share the same views about the way power should be used in a country or a society . It is typically accepted that political parties in america serve four functions. The first being that they selected candidates who best represent them to run for office. The second is they mobilize voters and convince these voters to vote for their selected candidates. Third, they facilitate governance by bringing some sort of order to the process of lawmaking. And finally fourth, they monitor the opposing party whenever they are in power. (Shmoop, “Role of Political Parties”) In america 's fine democracy, there are two major political parties that represent two ends of the political spectrum, The Democrats and The Republicans. The typical american voter can be starch supporter of one, or fall somewhere in between. Although the Democratic party and the Republican party have competing values, they share more in common than most people think and are a pivotal pillar of American Democracy.
Although the novel “The Secret Scripture” written by Sebastian Barry is constantly alternating between past and present, the transition happens quickly and smoothly. This is due to the narrator’s use of the relationship with the past and what is happening during the present. What starts as the present bleeds into the past through Roseanne’s hidden biography. The way on page sixty, how she is in the past remembering when her father was demoted to a rat catcher. Then page sixty one the reader is in the present again, but it’s not random. She is saying how clearly she remembers that day. Then on that same page she jumps back to remembering how prideful her father was of his job in the cemetery. You don’t even realize that you stopped reading one recollection and have already gone into the other.
After reading “Everyday Bible Study, chapters 6-9” I found that God wrote the Bible. The Bible is made up of 66 books and was written over a large time span and has many different Authors like Peter, Matthew, and Timothy to name a few, and all were from various parts of the world. Given that technology was nowhere near what it is today, communicating with each other or to conspire was not possible during their time; they all corroborate the same thing, that God wrote the Bible through Man. Man was inspired to create the Scriptures from God through the influence of the Holy Spirit; Scripture was not created by any human being, rather it was translated by God through the Holy Spirit to Man (2 Pet. 1:20-21 New International Version). “If Men Are Involved, How Are There No Errors?”
Another assignment that really stuck out to me this week was our discussion. The assignment asked us to talk about the manifestations of the enemy in our lives. It is hard having that level of honesty, even when it is with strangers as is the case with this class. Romans 8:1 tells us “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus” (English Standard Version). That should be the end of my shame, but I still struggle with sharing with others sins that I have struggled with in the past, even if they no longer rule my life. This morning I was reading my devotion which is a devotional that focuses on the Pauline letters. One of the things that I read this morning was Romans 7. Paul writes in Romans 7:18-19 “For I know
Sometimes developing healthy relationships can cause depression. It’s a struggle for depressed people to maintain emotional contact white others because it is a consequence that comes along with trying it out. A lot of the time there are depressed people who feel dependent on relationships with others. But if the relationship is threatened or loss it can make the depressed person feel helpless and weak. Depression can make people fear abandonment and they struggle to keep close contact with people. This fear of abandonment can be bad for relationships because people might not like to be depended on all the time and that can turn people away from being friends with the depressed person. Then that can be hard for the depressed
Biblical wisdom emphasis is another approach in which one can investigate to see what reigns to be important. Like the wisdom approach, biblical share in the importance of seeking wise counsel. Horton (2009) states that in the biblical approach several areas are important in determining spiritual discernment. These areas consist of decision being determined by the guidelines in the Bible, common sense, individual gifts, God has a plan but do not reveal it, sovereignty of God, and free to make choices (Horton, 2009). One may object to the fact that God would want us to do something but do not give us the tools or clues to do it. God being sovereign is an area that many can agree on. Gill, (2006) states that it is through the sovereignty of God which is presented through the Holy Spirit that allows for us to understand God’s will for our life. Gill (2006) also implement the wheel of life for the coaching process whereas God is at the center. I highly believe that nothing happens without God ordaining it to happen. God is in control of all things. Roman 8:28 states that God works all things together for those who love him and who are called according to his purpose (NIV). Therefore God is in control and guiding us towards his plan or purpose for our lives.
I have always strived to be a role model and a leader, both inside and outside of the classroom. My classmates ask me for advice and seek my leadership skills when making group decisions. The SELF Program will allow me to develop my teamwork skills because engineering encourages synergy throughout its disciplines. Furthermore, this program will enable me to explore opportunities in business, industry, and entrepreneurship. As a SELF Fellow, I will bring my leadership skills, motivation, and dedication to the School of Engineering.
The Bible, one of the world’s most ancient works of literature established into a book several years ago, can be debated to be true or false. However, whether or not it is doesn’t matter because either way it is incredibly fascinating. There are some truths and mysterious secrets embedded within the Bible. I believe the Bible should be taken figuratively rather than literally. To think that a group of writers from the ancient past had integrated stories with important morals and philosophies. The Bible has remained relevant for centuries and unfortunately has been neglected by the ignorance by the generations of today. Believe it or not, languages and popular phrases have been passed from the Bible and they may not even realize it.
Most of the Bible is just that, stories with another meaning to them, and a lot of them I had no idea about before ministry. The prayer services taught me how to think when I looked at passages in the Bible and I’ve got the hang of it somewhat. A lot of the Bible and it’s ideals make much more sense when you can make those connections. I like to think of the Bible as not just our religion’s doctrine, but also as the “How to Live a Pretty Solid Life” guide. The messages really just want to keep us in line and respect everyone
