Hemingway wrote about in his novel. The primary topics the author focused on seemed to echo throughout the story with hidden meanings using Christian symbolism, questionable moral issues, and tidy Christian parallels.

The Christian symbolism apparent in this quote depicts Santiago in the role of Christ teaching the boy to fish just as Christ had taught his…

Old boy, The fighter and American history x are three movies that have nothing in common at first glance. My thinking of movies that are similar are rush hour and ShowTime because they’re both movies about two cops, one serious and the other a comedian, taking on the entire city. My definition of similar movies is that similar movies are substitutes, a hotdog can be substituted by a burger, an apple by an orange, etc. Old boy, The fighter and American history x are like compliments. For Example,…

Water, one of the highest of holy rebirth references in existence. In The Road by Cormac McCarthy the two characters, the boy and the man, take a long journey, including a struggle of death versus life shown through the use of symbols to represent both sides of the struggle.

and even social media which say otherwise; they paint the ideal picture of what ‘Love’ is, in its many forms in popular culture.

The start of their relationship is questionable on many grounds; does she understand the risk of this potential liaison and how it…

Learning to live a Christian life is one thing, but living out what we have learned is another story. As Christians, I think we have a greater responsibility because we know how the world should look, and we need to step up and lead the people around us. In order to share the gospel with others, we have to take a look at what God is calling us to do. Leading others consists of knowing what the Christian life looks like, sharing that with others, and staying faithful and truthful in what we say…

Colossians 3:8, “Anger, wrath, malice, slander.” (ESV Colossians 3:5) As Christian people, who intend to follow Christ, we sometimes do not really follow Christ. It is easy to say love your neighbor, meaning everyone. On the other hand, it is very hard to follow through with that. You really learn how much the Lord loves you when you try to love the person you really dislike. It is hard, and the Lord makes it look easy. Now as Christian people however, it should be easy for us too. But, after…
