Vera Lynn's Song 'The White Cliffs Of Dover'

Pastor Ken Richards response to the crisis should be to apologize and tell the Session's group he would seek after the members that left and seek God for a message for the congregation. He was doing his own thing without seeking God for what the congregation need, however, the congregants should have known his style of preaching before they hired him.

The Vietnam War was an event with lasting effects. The U.S. troops participated from 1961 until 1975 where over 58,000 Americans were killed according to the U.S Department of Veteran Affairs. This war created a divide amongst the American people with so many opposed to the war because they claim that the cost of war and casualties was too high. Many believed, in addition, that the U.S. should not have involved themselves because the war did not directly affect America. For these reasons and many more, it caused a lot of traumas; not only for veterans but even regular citizens. Due to this, when U.S. involvement with the Iraq War started in 2003 (Riedel), many began drawing parallels between it and the Vietnam War and Anna Quindlen was among them.Anna Quindlen, an opinion columnist with a Pulitzer prize for commentary, wrote an article titled “We’ve Been Here Before.” Her overall goal, in this article, is to convince the reader that the Vietnam and Iraq War are alike as well as catastrophic. Her argument that the two wars are alike is erroneous in nature since there are many significant differences to be listed. Quindlen lacks reputable evidence because she lets her emotions write the article so she spews out personal attacks; there is a clear tone of anger. She accuses the president of wanting the Iraq War to only be about policy without backing this stance and she uses her friend’s statements to support her argument though he isn’t an expert on the matter. Quindlen makes a few good points in the article

As the meeting starts, just by looking at the demeanor of the women that begins with the Quorum Roll call you can notice her lack of enthusiasm which causes you conclude that she have no drive to be apart of the meeting. There were also a lack enthusiasm in her voice as she called all the alderman 's for their attendance. She called approximately fifty names without any knowledge if they were present or not. I noticed that there were about forty spectators. As she continues to call names, I realized that some of the alderman did not seem as if they wanted to acknowledge that they were present by their tone and by the time waited to reply “present” or even “here.” The city of chicago incorporated the fourth of march eighteen thirty-seven plaque which was displayed as they set up the cameras for about ten minutes. The room the meeting was held in set a serious tone as well as clean setting. They choose an area which creates a productive setting. After the roll call was over, it was approximately four aldermans that was no shows which did not seem as if it was abnormal. However, after the Quorum Roll call it was time for the invocation which was done by Reverend Martin. I was not to sure what was the need for the invocation because everyone has their different beliefs but Reverend Martin made sure his prayer was not to put anyone to shame for their beliefs but to pray for the focus of the meeting. As Rev. Martin starts the prayer, he focus on the forgiveness from GOD for the

The original hymn copyrighted by Katharine bates has as many as four verses (The Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History), but this recording only performs two. The recording begins with the introduction of a bass drum, using a sound of a drum

“Church , with thoughtful eyes, continued to shake his hand”: the phrase “thoughtful eyes” prove my point that Church still have vacillation of questioning himself whether Hickock deserve his death.

Incensed by this the man who had drafted the second building proposal left the church. At this point the greater denominational structure decided to step in and instructed a pastor trained in crisis resolution to come in to help resolve the situation. This Pastor met several times with the board and the implicated parties in an attempt to work things out. However, the party aligned with Dorch was intrackable and refused to allow people they perceived as arrogant and rich to make any suggestions or changes to the church building. This lead to the building of the new churh structure being stalled. At this point most people in the "educated" party began to slowly leave the church. Those few who remained on the board began to be increasingly hounded an derided. Dorch began to say that he had seen people in his own group in visions which told him they were going in the correct direction toward heaven, while those who did not submit to his authority were going in the wrong

Leader X self-referred himself to counseling. He does not believe that his family or any of the members of the church know about his problem.

Dr. Galindo’s approach to leading us was very open and reflective, his feed back was light and cautious, which had elements of revelation, education and healing. I believe he pushed us to self-awareness, causing us to have an introspective view of who we are and why we are. Reading our online post the first two weeks, I realized that I was very proficient in analyzing the working and dynamics of the church, however there was not a lot of contemplation about my intricate part as a cog in congregational machine. Dr. Galindo gave enough feed-back that inevitably caused me to ask bigger questions or dig deeper into the books and other sources to satisfy my many questions. It made we realize that I am interested in systematic theology. I love to uncover dynamics and unashamedly talk about the hard stuff because it is necessary for healing — I love to share the stories of God and love to find the systemic workings of organizations as well as individuals. Knowledge is

Breaking this cycle of denial and compromise invokes the mandate of the priesthood. Individual priests must accept and interpret the current state of affairs boldly and dispassionately. A decision of partisanship for Christ requires acting decisively at times of abandonment and undertaking the distasteful and thankless, yet necessary, work that lies

Barb had already spun out of control, Parish Council had usurped Reverend Fran's authority, and Bishop Brian was quickly losing patience with the whole situation. Calling for a "more realistic compromise”, Parish Council, like St Christopher's, decided to strip me of the hymn selection process and then order me to play the organ for at least for half the hymns. Afraid of losing her job, Reverend Fran capitulated to the mounting political pressure.
