After being enrolled at this school for a few years, I came to realize many people around me represented their faith differently but knowing gods love was something we all shared.

    Picture versus Personal Narratives Older individuals differ in narrative quality when prompted by different stimuli.

As I got older, I knew I could always talk to my parents about anything and they would help me through any hardships. In fact, my parents taught multiple valuable lessons growing up and the significant one was living an authentic life for Christ.…

    In the warm chaos of the delivery room at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, I was alone for five minutes. I basked in the limelight, but was quickly interrupted by two more loud, scrawny babies. My spotlight was not shared for long though; a week after my birth, I was taken home. I was nameless (going by Charlie Brown and Wrinkle Head), content to be the center of my parents’ attention, and alone for one last time. Ten days later, Matthew and Josephine were brought home and stole my spotlight once again.…

    I was the first Christian in my family. At the age of four, I started to go to church with my Aunt. Though by that time, I did not really understand what does salvation mean, I found I enjoy the time I spend at the church with my Sunday school teacher and friend. However, I was not saved until the age of 11. I went to public school for my primary education, and when I was at the age of 12, a year after I turned to Christ, I heard God’s calling and decided to go to a Christian school that was established by my home church.…
