Looking back over my notes and reflection journals, it is clear that my experience in FAML 160 was profoundly affected by the fact that I took FDREL 200 (The Eternal Family) during the same semester. The top ten things that I want to remember are a combination of things I learned and felt through both classes.

7- As we studied family crisis I want to remember the pain and healing I felt as I wrote and processed an experience in my life more thoroughly. I never want to forget that “God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.” (Rev.
