Lasting Legacy Research Paper

Improved Essays
Lasting Legacy When the time comes and this student is looking back at his life knowing that the end is near, there is one legacy that hopefully will be left in the memory of all those who knew him. That is, a legacy of a person who saw the needs of those around him and responded with compassion and action. In the Gospel of Matthew, the bible says: When He (Jesus) saw the crowds, He had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. (Matt.9:36). This student wants to be able to look back at his life, and to know that he felt compassion, and that compassion led him to action to help those in need of love, in need of comfort, in need of food and in need of shelter. This legacy will allow this writer to have a feeling of Ego integrity, and will avoid the feeling of despair. Christ is the essence of this student's being, and to be able to imitate Christ will the greatest honor this author could possibly want.

    True and significant life is found in Jesus Christ and because of my firm conviction of this it has been my primary objective to point people to Jesus. Being persuaded that Christ wants Christians and especially those who take leadership roles to minister to the needs of others, I have ordered my life to conform to that conviction. Ultimately, Jesus desires that each Christian serves him by serving others; this is accomplished in a variety of ways – feeding those who are hungry, teaching everyone the life saving Gospel, and by leading in a way that reflects the glory of Christ. It has been my immense pleasure to have had the opportunity to preach God’s Word to thousands of people over the past fifteen years. It is my sincere passion to see people embrace Christ Jesus as their Lord and savior and to be transformed by the renewing of their minds through the Word of God.…

    Analytical psychology was invented by Carl Jung. He and Sigmund Freud worked together for some time but eventually they parted ways and Jung developed his own interpretation of psychology of personality. For example, Freud saw that anything that a person did was because of your sexual desires and that there were three forces that are in a conflict- id, ego, and superego. Jung on the other hand believed that one’s sexuality was more of a symbol and that it cannot be fully analyzed. He also believed that personality wasn’t as simple as three forces that were in conflict with each other, instead he believed it was a complex system that has many factors that interact that eventually leads to an agreement or harmony.…

All of the theories that we have discussed this semester all have a connection with one another and they each have dissimilar views as well. The first theory we discussed was Freud’s psychodynamic therapy that focused on personality development and an approach to psychotherapy to have a better understanding of human behavior (Corey, 2013).

    Introduction into this book and videos covers how we need to set long term goals, but before doing so we need to ask ourselves some questions. Before we can set those goals we should seek to know Christ. This can be done by reading the four gospels and seeing what Jesus did, what we can learn from him, and how does it relate to us? Jesus’ last commandment was to go and make disciples, and while principles never change, our methods have to change in order to reach the current generation, and each beyond. As we get into the chapters we learn that men are God’s method and while they may seem unlearned or ignorant by man’s standards, God uses those willing to learn and raises them into leadership.…
