The building of monumental cathedrals in the middle ages was a reflection of faith and creative energy of medieval society. Although cathedral building was run by religious people or institutions, it was often a community effort. Architecture played a very important role for the church in medieval times. The more great the architecture, the more the church believed it was glorify God. Many of medieval cathedrals are museums, housing fantastic examples of craftsmanship and works of art.…

The main reason I attended St. Thomas University my freshman year was due to the fact that it was a free education. I can't afford college unless I earn scholarships to pay my way through school. My family doesn't have the money to send me off to out of state or private schools so I worked hard to earn the money on my own. The scholarship I earned at St. Thomas University was both academic and athletic.…

It checks all the boxes that were presented within this course, plot, character, scene-setting, dialogue, conflict. It is not surprising how well this short story is crafted in consideration that Carver is a Pulitzer Prize nominated author. (Biography Raymond Carver).…
As a young girl growing up in NYC when I first was afforded the opportunity to see this cathedral I remember thinking how massive and overwhelming this building was, especially when entering through ornately carved archways, massive portals which measure 18 feet high, six feet wide, and weighs three tons and, under the watchful eyes of Jesus Christ. Over the years, because this structure is a part of the neighborhood panorama, the beauty of the structure promotes a sense of the purity and sacredness of relationship we are designed to have with God. The original Byzantine-Romanesque design was changed to a French Gothic design after the large central dome made of Guastavino tile was completed in 1909. The stone-on-stone construction, using…

Why it is so important to study and have an understanding of world religion in the nursing field is because not everyone believes in the same thing and people do different things based on their religion. If a nurse wants to provide awesome care to their patients they need to be able to understand and provide their wants based on the patients religion. That's why when a patient is first admitted the nurse goes over an admission database that goes over a list of questions, religion and preferences is one of them. " The standards for culturally responsive nursing care include: showing reverence for religious differences, showing respect for the individuality of the patient, keeping an open mind, assuming nothing, asking questions, and paying attention…

With its headquarters in Vatican, it is a global organization. It is based on the relationship among its interrelated parts: dioceses, parishes, and parishioners creating the synergy in this social system. In the assembly of the Church we can recognize the Bureaucratic Organizations Approach.…
Cathedral of Holy Cross is located in the neighborhood of South End, at 1400 Washington St., Boston, MA. Cathedral has become my favorite place and like a second home to me. I go there when I need to settle my nerves, to bless myself with holy water, to break bread and drink blood red wine. Most of all, I go there to pray for myself, I go there to pray for my family, I go there to pray for this life which occasionally I do not know how to cope.…
My Catholic education is pretty important to me, and it is not because I can do a multi step equation in math or get a hundred on a spelling test, however, it is because God is always here with us. Everyday I walk into school and feel the spirit. I feel the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit and those are the things that make my life better. It is the little things we do in school, like praying before class and before we eat to thank God for what he gives us.…
Faith and religion is a vital part of humanity that can be traced back to the beginning of time, but the real question lies in why it is important to know and study it. By being in doctrine this year I have learned a lot about my faith and what exactly it means you believe when you say you are a Christian. Doctrine by definition is what the whole Bible teaches us today about some particular topic (Grudem 483). Therefore, it has some application to our lives. In addition, the most important reason for studying our beliefs is to “to obey the command of Jesus to teach believers to observe all that he commanded” (Grudem 22).…
