The text by Nathaniel Van Yperen, “I am Your Father: the Villain and the Future Self” talks at length about perceiving the villain of a story as a version of one’s “future self”, as in Star Wars between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader. Van Yperen describes Darth Vader as a villain because Luke can see himself someday turning out like his father. The concept of the “future self” can also be applied to Junot Diaz’s work, “Fiesta, 1980.” Nathaniel Van Yperen defines a villain as someone that a…

So they have narrated the origin and birth of Jesus, showing his birth and childhood in different ways but both place Jesus at the center of human hope. Saint Luke does not have to explain or reason; simply recounts, placing the birth of Jesus in the context of history and hope of humanity. He knows that Jesus is the Messiah of Israel and so should be noted, but know at the same time it is also the desired…

Every disciple of Christ is called to grab the baton of the Great Commission, and run with it. It is definite that Jesus’s disciples should live with the Mission of God attached to their lives; because it is God’s command to go into all the world and make disciples. Let 's begin; the mantle of the Great Commission in the Gospel of Matthew is in chapter 28 verse 18, which says, “Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.” A word that should…

Many Gospels? Why are there so many gospels? Why are there four different re-tellings of the same story? One might think they could be simplified, condensed, edited into one concise book, instead of overlapping.

Often times, I find myself justifying my poor decisions on my age, such as not attending church regularly. Yet, Mary was…

discover The Lindisfarne Gospels. Initially one would see this as two-dimensional art but with a closer look, they would see attempts at making the art three-dimensional. With The Lindisfarne Gospels, one will notice that there are four gospels (Matthew, Luke, Mark, and John). Focusing on Matthew’s page of the book, it is obvious how much care and detail went into the painting. The attempts to make the clothing on Matthew look like it has some dimension and like it has rumples is…
