In the video, the little boy is meeting with new born puppies under the supervision of his parents and the puppy caregiver. Although this video is eight minutes long, the part that I observed ran from 3:29-6:24. He interacts verbally and physically with the puppies. The adults are facilitating learning…

I refer to his remarks on the influence of good and evil spirits.” -(BACHT the way p 188) I believe that Ignatius’s belief in the influence of angels and demons is part of the church’s constant teaching and also…
