I didn’t find out about Hurricane Katrina until that Saturday and I left two hours later to go to Tennesse with my friend since the airport had closed. I had left the dorm briefly to go to McDonalds and everthing was alright when I left. Then when I came back people were packing [...]

Dr. Homan’s theology class has been very interesting so far. From the two hours spent in that class, Dr. Homan seems like an intelligent down to earth professor. It is pretty neat that he wrote one of our required textbooks. The syllabus along with the required reading being on the web is new for me. [...]

This is my first week in Theology 1120 and so far I think I like it. Although I do go to church, I do not really know very much about the Bible and the history of it. Some of the things we discuss I get totally lost on because I have no clue what my [...]

When I received my first schedule at Xavier University, I was shocked to see that I would be taking Theology 1120 my first semester. Before even stepping foot in the class, many of my peer dean advisors warned me about the Theology courses offered freshman year and the great [...]

My thoughts about the class so far are a bit scary. See that we will do a lot of writing in this class and a lot of work online. It’s not that I do not like to work online, but sometimes the internet does not like to agree with me when it comes [...]

Personally, I am tired of telling my Hurricane Story. I feel as though it has been told entirely too many times since we have been back in New Orleans alone. I thought I was [...]

Week 1 Project:
I think that this Intro to Biblical Studies class will be very informative. So far I have seen that the class appears to be interactive with the students and making it a lot more fun and memorable than the average class taken. I hope that I can gain a lot more insight [...]

At the current moment I was scared because a hurricane is going to hit, but realize that I should not be because GOD is with me. May the LORD be wth all and be encouraged.

I am willing to commit myself and what I got to do. My carrer choice is Pre-Med Psycholgy. I believe its good to study Theology and Psychology in juxtaposition becaus they link in some ways. However, I dont think its neccessary.

Now it is going to be hard to write so much on a topic I am not too familiar with. However, I have been in church all my life, but I was previously taught the usual bible tales and fables. Now more about Lamentation…It was written by the prophet Jeremiah. Lamentation [...]

My hurricane story… Well, my RA banged on my door at about 9:40am on Saturday, August 27, 2005. My roommate and I looked at one another and then opened the door. Residents were running up and down the hall waking people up saying, “The hurricane is coming! Meeting [...]

As long as I can remember, I have been a Christian. Therefore, when I found out that I had to take Theology 1120, I had no objections. On the first day of class, I was about 2-3mins late because I was lost, and ended up on the fifth floor in the Pharmacy department. [...]

I feel this course, Theology 1120 this fall is going to be very challenging. I have never in life taken a course with 1500 word blogs due every week, but on the other hand, the readings of the textbooks shouldn’t be too hard. After all, I do have a history in Biblical Studies because at [...]

Beep! Beep! Beep! The buzzing meant it was eight, which also meant it was time for me to wake up for church. But all I needed was ten more minutes of sleep, so I hit the snooze button and rolled back over and closed my eyes.
“Owo, get up now so we can get to [...]

586 BCE is a key event in the bible and also a turning point in the shaping of the bible altogether. One of the main reasons is because it marks the event in history where Babylon destroys and overtakes the capital of Jerusalem. This marks an era of hardship and desperation for the people of [...]

586 B.C.E. is considered to be an important date in history because it was the year that the people of Jerusalem were exile from Israel by the Babylonians. The Babylonians destroyed everything in the city, raped and killed most of those living there, and left the remaining there to suffer and starve to death. [...]

My thoughts on the class so far are that I think it might be interesting. I expect to learn some new things and see some thoughts from another point of view. I took this course because I need it for my major. I want to be a doctor of pharmacy and I [...]
