1 Corinthians 13

I have chosen Paul’s First Letter to the Corinthians 13: 1-13 for my bible passage. In Paul’s day, Corinth was the largest and most influential city in southern Greece.

St. Paul tells us in the letter to live by the wisdom of God and the Gospel that he speaks on behalf of Jesus (1 Corinthians 2), living sexually moral lives in marriage, families and the single life while loving selflessly, as said…

Paul’s final call of the church in Colossians 3:1-15 is witnessed in Colossians 3:14-15 which reads, “And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.” Both love and thankfulness, but especially love, are some of Christ’s most prominent characteristics. 1 John 4:19 states, “We love because he first loved us.” (ESV 1 John 4:19) Again, we are taught to…

have an impact on my career as a nursing student. For example, in the very first chapter of Genesis, it says this, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1, NIV) “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before…

Student strategy: Student A starts by drawing 11 circles, which is what I saw. When asked to explain what he did, he said that he first drew 2 circles and then 9 more. He then added them together by counting them all to get 11 pennies, which is the answer. When solving the problem, he adds them by counting from 1 to 11, and he seems to have drawn 2 circles and then 9 more, following the time sequence. However, I never saw him count 2, 9, and then all of them, I only saw him count 1 to 11.…
