Accessibility will bring in the masses initial, but depth keeps players around for the long term. The Beta suggests that Dice may have crafted a beautiful and enjoyable experience, but not a truly engaging game. Controlling Both Vader and Luke was a fun novelty feature, but this doesn't change the overall feeling towards my time with the Beta being a little underwhelming. Fun, fast but lacking a real identity or focus. Battlefront could quite easily end up becoming another flash in the…

In the Gospel of Mark, there are many theological themes. Some of the theological themes could also be seen in The Human Experience. The themes in particular would be conversion, joy, and solemnness. Conversion is a theme that is in both the Gospel of Mark and in The Human Experience. Conversion could be defined as change in beliefs, character, form, or function. In the Gospel of Mark, the theme of conversion is shown throughout the entire story. For instance, when Jesus announced that “the…

audience for the Jewish community, as all the others are not. Mark, the first gospel written, second in order, was written towards Romans. He focuses on Jesus living as a servant toward His older age days. He details his suffering and how He died for us. Luke is the third Gospel of the books, and is descriptive of Jesus’ life. Approaches details of history, kings, and places of Jesus’ life. Lastly, John, was different from the first three books of the Gospel. He wrote his gospel decades after…

For my final film, I watched a play called The Gospel Project. It was performed by Justin Poole and Jim Clemens. Since I saw this in February, I emailed Justin to ask him a few questions about the play. I first asked him how the play stick to the texts in the Gospels. He relied heavily on three versions: King James, New International Version, and New Living Translation. He said in his email that he took from these three versions because he wanted to take “words from a variety of these…

The book Star Wars: Thrawn by Timothy Zahn is a well written book about Thrawn and Eli Vanto, two soldiers in the Imperial Navy. It is a canonized twist on the story of a popular character, Grand Admiral Thrawn, in the Star Wars fan base after Disney bought Star Wars from Lucasfilm. (In this case, canon means what did or didn’t happen in Disney’s Star Wars universe, not Lucasfilm’s.) Eli Vanto wanted to be a supply officer in the Imperial Navy, but on an assignment to a backwater planet, his…

Luke paints a different portrait of Jesus unlike the other gospels. Luke put emphasis on Jesus being the Messiah from the David’s lineage. Throughout the Book of Luke, emphasis was put on Jesus being the Messiah to the entire world and not just to the Jews. This was very important because many of the stories, Jesus used people who were not Jews but Gentiles. The sermon in Luke 4, transfiguration, and Jesus’ Galilean ministry paint a unique portrait of Jesus. Each event builds up the…

The Gospel of Matthew has many interesting stories within it. Matthew is the first book in the transition from the Old Testament into the New Testament. Matthew starts off with the wonderful conception and birth of Jesus in Bethlehem. He writes, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.” Matthew 1:20. He praises Joseph for not leaving Mary; he did as the angel of the Lord commanded and took Mary home as his…

Tajay Simon Rev. Dr. Joshua Hollmann FYS September 28, 2016 Who was Jesus according to Mark According to Mark Jesus was a man of the people the “Messiah”. Jesus is portrayed in Mark as extremely popular person with the people of Galilee, coming from Nazareth during his ministries and gospel. He is portrayed as a miracle worker, a healer, a feeder of the people and a great minister. He goes on to appoint twelve disciples to travel with him…

To begin, there were four Gospels written, they are Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John and they are found in that order in the Christian New Testament. These four Gospels reference the Hebrew Bible in several passages to show the legitimacy of Jesus as messiah. In delivering this message, the Gospels also explain Jesus as God’s son which causes quite a controversy to say the least. Jesus as messiah is still disputed almost 2,000 years later. The Gospel According to Matthew is strictly told from a…

Luke is a historian of Jesus’s activity. A reader of Luke’s writings will experience techniques and principles mainly associated with historiography, such as: detailed chronology of events, terms consistent with their historical context, and careful research through eyewitness accounts and written sources. Mark adversely to Luke is the originator of the genre Luke is writing and one of Luke’s verifiable sources. Mark’s writings are symbolic of Apocalyptic Literature which means Mark’s depiction…
