Perhaps their single greatest disagreement lay in the debate of the importance of the individual and society. Hegel zoomed out as much as possible, trying…

Anahis Figueroa Both My Home and My Happy Place It was a bright, sunny day in Chicago. The temperature was perfect. It wasn’t too hot but hot enough that it wasn’t overwhelming. I turned my attention to Lake Michigan. I looked at the water glistening and the waves moving forward in unison. And that's when I noticed that I was blanking out.

The book, Psalms of Faith by Ray C. Stedman is about one man’s interpretation of the book of Psalms and how one can gain insight into daily living from the book itself. The themes of each chapter come from certain Psalms, such as, A Song of Foundations, which covers Psalm one, or How to Handle a Bad Conscience, which is on Psalm 51. Each one of the Psalms has its own unique meaning and personal application on how one should apply themselves in certain situations. The book of Psalms itself was…

Relational Holiness in Wynkoop Almost immediately following John Wesley’s death his essential teaching, Christian perfection, was being redefined by his contemporaries in more strictly western theological conceptions than Wesley had ever intended. As has already been seen, Wesley was more profoundly impacted by the teaching of the Eastern Orthodox Fathers than those of the Western Church. Nearly 200 years after Wesley, Mildred Bangs Wynkoop sought to reclaim the core of his conception of…

The rain was none stop and we had to stay inside the house for most of the time. The wind started to blow extremely hard and the rain began to fall even harder.

The next morning when I opened my front door, water was a little above my…
