Individual growth in my own understanding of scripture and how it applies to my life is another benefit I have experienced while acting as a Unit Lay Reader. While developing presentations and…

This essay will address whether if I agree or disagree to Pascal’s claim about man. In his famous essay on the Wager, Pascal claims that ‘Man is dignified, despite his vulnerabilities’. The concept of dignity means the quality or state of being worthy of respect and honor whereas vulnerability deals with being easily hurt, in other words, being weak.

When I arrived she had another woman with her who spoke very little English but she 'd brought her because she said the woman was angry at God and she wanted her to meet someone who knew God. I 'd been hoping for a quiet nerdy history day but Holy Spirit had other plans. At one point in the museum, our guest asked "What is that I feel? It makes me feel funny." I have encountered the feeling before in places like the British parliament and other places of authority. I told her it was…
