Capital T-truths
There are many capital T-truths to take from the Bible. The story that I learned the most from in this class is the Exodus story of Moses. I think I learned the most from this story because of the underdog mentality, the truths learned with oppression, and the lesson to love everyone, even when it is hard to.
I think I gained the most knowledge from the underdog aspect of the story. This is because at some point everyone in their life feels like they are the underdog or that they cannot do anything right. This story showing us that an underdog can overcome great obstacles. I relate the most to this story specifically because I have always viewed myself as an underdog. I also never see myself the way God does. Reading about how God believed in Moses even when he did not believe in himself makes me realize that all things are possible. In my life I viewed myself as an underdog in high school, especially when it came to popularity. At this time in my life I thought popularity was very important. At the end of my senior year I was voted the prom …show more content…

Who was a Hebrew male, even though her father commanded that all Hebrew boys were to be killed. This is an important thing to learn because even if you do not like a person that much you should still be kind to them. Being kind to everyone is an important lesson to learn. It is important because in life there are going to be people do have do deal with even though you do not always want to. For example, if you have a boss or a coworker that you do not life that does not mean that you cannot work together. You will have to find a way to get along with each other so that you can all get your jobs done. Kindness is also an important lesson for everyone to learn. I believe that God put us all on His earth for a reason. We are all His children and He loves us, therefore we should be kind to

    I believe the most important concept that I gained from reading the book was to remain faithful, in good times and in bad. Walking blindly can be very terrifying, but God always has a plan for each and every one of us. At times, the plan remains unseen, and that should not deter or slow me on the path that my heart is yearning

    I can relate this book to my life in many ways; it was easier for me to relate to this book because were both 18 year old girls who want to live life the right way. Also I don’t want to live life trying to be like everyone else, so this was really encouraging to me. A part that helped me was the part about confidence and how important that is. Its important to have confidence in your faith because say you get in a situation you can protect your faith and stand up for what you believe. Another part that I can really apply to my life was how when people were talking about her she didn’t even beg to know. Personally whenever I hear that someone was talking about me, I really want to know what they said! This helped me to learn that why fill my brain with negativity sinful gossip, because that’s not what Jesus would do.

    Furthermore, the story teaches readers to be knowledgeable. The story shows what a world without knowledge looks like and it is terrible. People should not deter from learning unless they want to become someone else's puppet. Students, in school, should absorb all the information their teachers give them. The world is a very cold, cruel place and if a person is not educated he/she will nor make it in life. The world will chew him/her up, and spit him/her out.

    The lesson that I really liked in ”Song of the Hummingbird” is how one should stay true to one’s beliefs. I really liked this because Huitzitzilin kept her beliefs even though the Spaniards tried to convert her to Christianity. After the Spaniards baptized her and gave her a new Christian name, she was not happy. In fact she hated the Spaniards for that. She did not want to give

    I believe that that the moral of the story is that nothing in this world is impossible anything can happen at any given time. Like he said in this chapter how could people be starving in the richest nation in the world. And every one doubted Plaisted but look what happen he proved every body wrong. When you put you mind to it anything is possible.

    One of the main lessons I learned was, for years people have been using religion for some type of power, financial gain, land or just control over people by just taking some verses in a text and not interpreting properly. I believe that the Jew had most of the things right in how they believed because they were so discipline, we have watered down religion today trying to make everyone feel a certain way instead of just telling the truth. I believe without the truth we are going to continue to put man over God instead of like the Jew in Judaism put God over everything.

My mother always told us to keep this close to our hearts and we would be content with what we had. What she taught me helped me become selfless, respectful to everyone no matter age, gender, race, or religion, encouraging to others, and helped me become

    Personally, the book of Ecclesiastes resonated with me and was a turning point in my life. It introduced the idea to me that since the beginning of man nothing has changed. Our problems and struggles were the same that Abraham or Moses faced. These simple, yet profound, words of the book spoke directly to my ego and confirmed that my struggles in life were not unique. Ecclesiastes was the book that started my journey with Jesus. Similarly, the testimony of the sufferers that these two books provide is one that has a great impact on the modern day

  • Personal Narrative: The Crew

    The lessons are numerous and range from trivial to profound, but there’s one that's had the most impact on my life. Fortunately, I was born into a unconditionally loving family with good health and parents that I feel comfortable talking to under almost any circumstance. Until I got to really know my friends, I was aware that not everybody’s lives were like this but never really understood what a life without those privileges was like. But then my perspective changed when I found out that a couple of my friends have terrible relationships with their parents and suffer from depression and anxiety. Another one of my friends suffers from chronic migraines and has been hospitalized three times in the past year. All of my friends are incredible individuals, and knowing in detail of what they withstand on a daily basis has made me more empathetic to the people around me. I think we all forget sometimes that other people are people, we subconsciously go into this state of mind thinking we’re the center of the whole world. But in actuality, that is not the case; everyone else has their own unique lives and issues they’re dealing with. So what I’ve learned by knowing of my friends’ distinctive stories is just to be more cognizant of others. It's difficult to have that state of mind all the time, but in doing so I have better relationships with

  • Farman Farmaian Reflection

    The narrator of the book, Farman Farmaian, surprised me the most because of her will power and her courage to create a life of her own. Her father believed that education was extremely important and she wanted to please him by furthering her education by going to America. “Nothing is more important, he would admonish, than your education” (Farrmaian 10-11). What stuck out to me was when her father said, “times are changing, and what counts nowadays is not who your father was but what you make of your own lives” (Farmaian 11). He doesn’t want his children to get by because of who he is; he wants his children to get an education and make something of themselves.

But that doesn’t happen without me taking steps of faith and working towards my goal.

    The first lesson was that I have to be respectful. I was a teenager who kept disrespecting to people. If they told me something that I was not agree I always said “that is not true, that is stupid” even though I was wrong. One day my dad saw the attitude that I had with the people, so he made a trick to teach me a lesson and stop being a disrespectful. My dad told one of his friends to make me be disrespectful to him, so he could scare me. I saw him we started talking about cars when he started...
