In the world today, there are a lot of problems that need to be addressed in today’s world. These problems can range the war in Iraq to problems in society years from now. There are three major problems in the world that are affecting people presently and in the future. The three biggest problems that [...]

First and foremost, I would like to thank you Dr. Homan for making me write these blogs. While writing these blogs trying to catch up with the class, I learned a lot about myself. I have to admit that the thought of writing one thousand word blogs every week was intimidating. I feel more than [...]

To answer the question of why Christians believe that the world will end in their lifetimes, you would have to know the story behind why and what would lead them to come up with such things. Armageddon is the Greek pronunciation of the Hebrew words har megiddo, a location in the Jezreel Valley of northern [...]

In all sincerity, I really think that my project has made the world a better place. The implementation of my project has allowed me to have a positive impact on the youth that attend St. Augustine High School. I feel that after being able to be a mentor and a positive role model to the [...]

As time goes on, I am becoming more and more enthusiastic about working on my project because of the progress being made. I’ve gotten a chance to work with new students and be able to give my advice and personal experience on how to do well in school and be successful out of school. There [...]

I would like to thank everybody again for commenting on my blog and giving helpful suggestions to improve my project. Since I’ve started my project I’ve noticed that it is progressing nicely and I’m enjoying working with the students academically and on a personal level.
In response to Sandy Lee’s comment, I agree with you about [...]

Job’s experience parallels what happened to the city of New Orleans. Job was a good man who worshipped God. There was a bet between God and Ha-Satan that would test Job’s loyalty and faith in God. Job’s [...]

A positive role model is a person who carries out a role and demonstrates positive ways of thinking and actions along with good values. Role models also possess the qualities that the people who look up to them would like to have. Role models have a profound impact on children and teenagers. According to Dr. [...]

Up until now, I am getting to know the students that I’m working with along with the other volunteers. As time goes by we have developed personal relationships and we have been tutoring in the in different subjects. These subjects include physics, chemistry, earth science, and sometimes in the detention room. In the physics room, [...]

First and foremost, I would like to thank everybody that commented on my project and gave me their opinions. A problem that I saw in the world was there was a lack of guidance in a percentage of America’s young men. My project was to join Men on the Move program and become a tutor [...]

The Tiglath Principle is about the king of the Assyrian Empire. It’s about the exaggerations of how another nation is conquered. The king claims to have killed 20,000 men for not praising the god, Ashur. Patriarchs and Matriarchs are [...]

Personally I do not feel that I, or anyone could adequately answer the question at hand. Instead we can look into history and try to find pieces to the puzzle and come up with theories and opinions. Faith is a very important factor in Christianity. Without faith it is impossible to please God. In trying [...]

I don’t think that my project with neither the library or with helping out at the church improved the world. On the other hand I would agree that the library will help the entire city of New Orleans. Who knows maybe even the state of Louisiana. And as for the church it probably helped the [...]

Basically the comment on my project stated that me changing my project was understandable and that it was a great choice for me to spend my holiday to fulfill my volunteer commitments. I guess some of the students realize that as college students we tend to take on too much and the best thing to [...]

From the course goals that were set to us at the beginning of the semester, I don’t believe all of them were fulfilled as they should have been.
1. Give students a level of expertise in the discipline of biblical studies. I believe this goal was fulfilled to the highest level because not only did [...]

As the semester ends I have learned a lot from this course. If you look at my first blog I did not have great expectations for this course but it has been one of my most informative courses at me matriculation at Xavier. I do think that Dr. Homan is one of those great [...]

Many Christians in history feel that the world will end in their lifetime due to past and current events that continue to occur. Many people who believe in the Bible and in God have a tendency of thinking that God is upset with the world and the things that we, as creatures of God continue [...]

Most Christians in history believe that the world will end in their lifetime because it is their lifetime. Due to the fact that God said he will return each generation feels as though their generation is the worse and is the last. I remember when Y2k was happening and we thought the world was going [...]

As stated before I believe that the world today is in peril. The African American community reflects the downward spiral in which the United States is heading. Some say that this country is the home of the free and the brave. Clearly by the stats that I have done on my research assignment it [...]

For the last week in the blog entry, we have to reflect on the semester and evaluating ourselves on the following goals: 1. give students a level of expertise in the discipline of biblical studies, 2. provide the tool to read the Bible in an academic and critical manner, 3. improve student’s ability to effectively [...]
