have chosen to observe and write about the discourse community of the modern day Christian church. The Christian church has many different values, morals, and beliefs. Some examples are forgiveness, compassion, reconciliation, and unconditional love. Some of these values are very obvious when observing the discourse community, whereas some are more subtle and hard to catch. As I sat in the café of the church, I noticed a lot of communication going

When discussing the Church in the Christian faith, the term ecclesiology comes up. Ecclesiology is the part of Christian theology that teaches and deals with the Christian Church. Many Christians today have different views of how the Church works and what it actually means. Many Christians today see the Church as just the building that they visit every Sunday to worship God, which is far from the truth. The Church is much more than just a building. The Christian Church is the body of all who who

For this assignment, I decided to go to Campus House to see a nondenominational Christian church service. I wanted to go here because as a Catholic, I always wondered how church service for general Christians varied from that of Catholics. The ceremony took place in a room that looked like a theater. There was a stage with mics and music stands that was surrounded by folding chairs. The walls were adorned with black and white pictures of people and places. The atmosphere felt more like a speakeasy

The story of the early Christian church involves a number of experiences of persecution. Most of the conflicts happen between Christians and Jews. Acts narrates that Peter and John were arrested by Sadducees (4:3-22), then harshly questioned by the Sanhedrin (5:17-42), and then flogged for what they believed in (5:40). The readers can begin to see the reason for persecution from the start—their belief in the unconditional love and resurrection of Jesus. Acts continues to show the demonstration of

Ever the since the creation of the Bible, woman in the Christian church have been highly neglected as many passages of the holy text suggest that woman are inferior to men and serve a lesser purpose. The problem is, in many points of bible, there a situation where it contradicts itself regarding the status of woman in the Christian church. A notable example of such contradiction can be seen in the passage John 8:1-11 were it states that we have all sinned and to accuse someone of crime is to accuse

lives. During this time, the disciples worked together to plan the early Christian church getting ready for the monumental task ahead of them that was ordained by Jesus Himself. There was no dissension, separation, or rebellion amongst the people because this would have shifted focus from what was the task at hand of receiving the Helper. Division at this pivotal period of time would have spelled failure for the young church but God always keeps His promises and this was no exception. With all of

Chapter 4: Roanoke’s Christian Church (Disciples of Christ): “Not the Only Christians, But Christians Only” In downtown Roanoke, on Church Avenue, an old church building still stands, having been erected over one hundred years earlier. For the same period of time, it has been occupied by a congregation, whose denominational origins lead back to a rural part of Kentucky in what was called the Restoration Movement, initiated by reformers who yearned for a primitive, apostolic form of Christianity,

Byzantine Church (186) The Byzantine Church was the Christian church in the Byzantine empire that was closely intertwined with the government. The rulers of the Byzantine empire regarded the Byzantine Church as a division of state. A person was chosen to be leaders of the capital (which was the highest position in the church comparable to the pope), and they had the authority to direct others to give sermons that encouraged royal rule.

Catholic, protestant, Christian, and Islamic churches have all had an effect towards the way their people live, think, and behave. Churches in each society have an effect that positively influences people. When people know that they have a God and savior who is at their side they feel comfortable, this keeps people together. Many societies base their whole life around their religion. Their religion is the rulebook, their faith, and their go to when in need of help. The Catholic Church, Catholic meaning
