Christ I

I attended my very first worship service on November 22, 2015. It was at Destiny Christian Church. Destiny Church is a non-denominational church that believes that God has a perfect will for us, to give tools to be successful Christians, and to provide practical advice to live a life that portrays God’s love. Their mission is, to reach the lost, restore the fallen and renew the passion. They have a three part philosophy; belong, believe, and become. They believe that anyone can belong to…

I feel qualified to hold this position because of how influential the big/little aspect of Zeta has been on my life. My family within Zeta is so close from my great grand big down to my little, and each of them have given me a feeling of having a home away from home. I’ve experienced how important getting a big sister can be when you are a freshman trying to find your way and find where you belong at Auburn. I’ve also experienced how important it is to turn around and be that same guiding light…

Philosophy Of Doing Pastoral Ministry Church Revitalization Church Revitalization is the process of renewing the passion and desire of a stagnate or declining church to grow. True revitalization can only be achieved through prayer and guidance of the Holy Spirit. It is best to make modifications and/or changes that are led by the Lord. Revitalization can be achieved by introducing a sense of urgency to a congregation. It should be noted that revitalization is a process not a program; therefore…

After cleaning her wounds, giving her multivitamins and handing her parasite medication she looked up at me with her cavity filled mouth smiling the biggest smile I had ever seen. She reached her arms out in front of her tiny body with her hands together and pointed them towards me. A translator whispered behind my shoulder that this was a sign of ultimate and saintlike respect. Her magnitude of gratefulness made me instantly humbled. With tears in her eyes, we hugged. Little did this…

I broke the folkway, or the minor everyday social habit, of appropriate topic of dress at church (Lecture). Outside of school, I am a peer to peer sex educator for Planned Parenthood, because of this I own Planned Parenthood clothing. I attended three conservative churches dressed in a t-shirt, hoodie and jeans. The t-shirt is bright pink and says “Planned Parenthood” on the front in lighter baby pink. Over this, I wore a light grey zip-up sweatshirt which stated “Teen Council” on the front and…

There have also been instances when people say “I want to do this but the job doesn’t pay well.” Personally I would rather struggle to pay my bills in order to feed my craving for my passion than be financially secure and depriving myself of what I love. It is understandable that someone would sacrifice their passion in order to live a secure life but what is the fun in that? Why would you put yourself…

of public schooling, I have never written about one subject for so many times. With the past few drafts, I realized that zoology is slightly more complex than what people would imagine. As you would expect with zoology, people study the structure, habits, and evolution of all animals, both non-living and living. Animal-related careers, whether it is a zookeeper or a researcher, may seem simple, but a person needs key traits such as extreme patience, passion, and alertness. I honestly believe…

Religious beliefs and the rituals created to express them have played a major role in shaping artistic expression since the beginning of time. The west is no different and we find artwork throughout generations is rich with religious meaning. From the devotional art of New Spain to the Native rituals of the Southwest, the exhibit “Art of the West” at the Gene Autry Western Heritage Museum displays a significant narration of western culture in one of its main themes “Religion and Ritual”. This…
