These events include: the call of God to sinners for salvation, the impartation of new life, to legally be able to stand blameless before God, and to be adopted in the family of God. Interestingly enough, there is an applicable part of…

The first frame for the image eventually becomes an elaborate tabernacle, and all the steps in between are recorded. Materiality and the Application The impacts of materiality on miraculous images allow a better understanding of the processes leading to the development of identity in Renaissance Florence. We know…

“Once you decide to send your story out into the world for the enjoyment of readers, it doesn’t belong to you anymore and you must optimize its presentation to benefit them, not to indulge your own obsessive passion about ultimately irrelevant details.” (Weiland).

"By blood, I am Albanian. By citizenship, an Indian. By faith, I am a Catholic nun. As to my calling, I belong to the world.

The first word in the original Greek in the book of Revelation is apokalupsis, which means an uncovering, an unveiling, a disclosure, a revelation. Our church currently meets in a school multipurpose room which has a stage covered by a large, mustard-yellow curtain. While the curtain is closed, it hides the items behind it.
