research/practice as incompatible. Others pick and choose aspects to sprinkle into their own field, such as psychologists who see therapeutic merit in prayer & meditation apart from the beliefs that ground them, or Christian counselors who develop or borrow therapeutic methods based on similarity to Christian disciplines without attention to empirical methodology…
my prior ways of thinking or non-thinking. The distractions in the world cause a sort of fuzziness about the truth. In order to clear out the fuzziness and understand God’s will and plan for me, I need to research and then define and support my Christian worldviews based on God’s word. Worldview Defined The current culture has a way of helping define one’s worldview, although this can be positively or negatively. For…
Introduction I chose to write about the Christian discipline of mentoring because of its importance. Jesus said “Go ye therefore, and make disciples of all nations,” Mark 28:19 Christian discipling is mentoring people young and old about the gospel and teaching them how to live above reproach. Mentoring is the main way that people of all classes come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ whether it is a pastor doing the mentoring or a ley person. Summarise your original understanding of the…
dominant cultural Christianity on the King Arthur narrative cannot be ignored. Mentions of the religion abound throughout the tale, particularly in the Quest for the Holy Grail. Arthur was portrayed as a devout Christian, even going into battle with a cross on his shield. However, Christian influences on the text could not have come from the original bards as Christianity first appeared in the country around 387 AD (Crichton 38). Therefore, somewhere along the way the early church of…
Introduction Christian themes and metaphors are common in literature because of their universal renown, but depending on how these are used and referenced in the work, they convey different meanings and have different effects on the reader. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis and The Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemingway are two works of literature that use Christian allegories. In Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, four children venture into the magic world of…
Theodore Roosevelt was the true image of what a leader should be. He possessed the qualities of a good leader but not only that, a Christian leader. Many qualities are taken into account when you look for an effective leader, but three really stick out from the rest; motivated, personable, and determined. Christian leaders possess these qualities but also others as well. Christian leaders have integrity, they are loving, and they are imitable. Theodore Roosevelt was an assertive leader who let…
The Christian Worldview Since the beginning of time man has been on a quest to find out his true purpose. Man is in need of a Savior, a Savior that can save him from the pollution of sin and death. Many worldviews have promised to do just that, however, all the attempts of such leaders, has ended in death. Christianity stands alone, echoing in the hearts of man, as the one true religion. God has a plan to save mankind, and restore our broken relationship with him, and that plan is Jesus Christ…
Christian religious tradition (or Christianity) has long been thought of as a set of dogmas, sacraments and moral attitudes linked with a belief and reverence in God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit as captured in the stores of the Bible. Within Biblical gospels one find descriptions of the many miracles Jesus Christ bestowed upon mankind, stories that became fundamental to Christian belief, where the faithful profess to the genuine nature of these stories as factual truths. Given the…
In the Christian religion, there are many ethics and bioethics in the religion, the main bioethics in Christianity is IVF, Abortion, human cloning, euthanasia and the pill there are many more but these examples are the most popular ones.

Choosing the right audience is not given however choosing your words is.If I would choose a scenario I would like to choose the pro-same-same-marriage. When giving a speech to a group of Christians Evangelicals you first must know how they think and why they think like that. One of my strategies that I would use is consulting with other speakers who have presented to my audience. This would enhance my opportunity to familiar myself with them and to really get an understanding who they truly are.…
