OMG!!! The last blog has finally arrived!!! Now let us discuss course goals and how well they were relayed this semester. Honestly I have learned a lot about biblical studies and how much it takes it to be a biblical scholar. I think that overall my class somewhat struggled with this part of the course [...]

People believe that the end of the world is going to be in their lifetime for many reasons including the media, false information, craziness, and the book of revelation. The media, television, and internet play a huge role in getting an idea about something and broadcasting to an audience to try and persuade them to [...]

I started off in the beginning of the semester with some really great plans. I was actually intrigued by the whole change the world idea. As with all good thoughts and things, they eventually came to an end. I had a great and rather comprehensive project idea that just did not happen. The organization that [...]

Why do most Christians in history believe that the world will end in their lifetimes?
I remember in 1999 when the rumor was out that when the clocks hit twelve on January 1, 2000 all the computers were going to stop and that the world was going to go into a period of extreme chaos. This [...]

In week 6 I blogged about the personal tragedy of losing my uncle in March and wrote about how I might change my project to fit something related to the reason for his death. I just want to update here that I stuck with my original project because I am not quite if I really [...]

Respond to comments on your project.
I just want to thank everyone for their comments and suggestions on my project. I really liked the one from Andrew who said I should make a myspace or Facebook page. I really had not considered that before. It would get a lot of participation probably but I do think [...]

There are quite a few Christians in history that believe that the world will end within our lifetimes. It is funny to answer this question because part of the problem most definitely stems from one of my world issues, the media. Often times the media portrays images that are then allowed to fester in the [...]

Responses:
Andrew - I’m glad that you and I are tackling a similar problem and hopefully through both of our hard efforts we can accomplish great things. Thank you very much for the suggestions about getting the word out. You are right that I have not had time to make a video. I’m swamped in school [...]

The prophets tried to go out into the world on a mission of educating people about god. Although I am not trying to educate people about god, I am trying to make am impact in the world by doing what I [...]

The comments that people left in regards to my theology project were very encouraging and made me realize that there are others who care about issues that need to be improved within our world. Thank you to: mwallace1, kateyjames, jivory1, leedatboy, nia, jle3, aminias, and missnay1. I realize that this project is something this is [...]

My project definitely took a different term as the semester slowly started slipping away. I had originally planned to get involved with an organization that promoted giving people an animal and teaching them how to care for it as a way to learn to feed themselves. Unfortunately no local events are set up currently in [...]

Seriously letters??? Anyway here is a copy of the letters I sent:
Dear President Obama,
I’m writing out of concern for a few issues that are looming in our country. There is a huge epidemic in this country surrounding nutrtion. Not just nutrition in regards to people being underweight and unable to afford food, but also nutrition [...]

Dear Abouna Youstos,
      I am doing an assignment for my theology class about a major problem the world is facing today.  There are many severe problems that the world is going through at this very moment, but the one that bothers me the most is world hunger. There are innocent children and people out there [...]

My project , “The Floss Boss,” has been a great learning experience for me. When I first started out with this project, it was just a school assignment. I did not realize how one person can touch the lives of people. All it takes is a little time and a person who has [...]

     In this blog I am going to write a reflective blog, in which I am going to evaluate the course goals that I feel I have achieved. The course goals are: give students a level of expertise in the discipline of biblical studies, provide the tools to read the Bible in an academic and [...]

   I believe that the end of the world cannot be determined, but there are many people who do. Many people including Christians believe that the world is going to end in their lifetime. I believe that only God knows when the world is going to end and no one else. I really think that those [...]

I feel that world hunger is a very big issue in today’s world. People are suffering each day due to poor nutrition and health. Many of these people go to bed at night without eating anything, because they cannot afford it. Also, a lot of these people get very sick and the eventually die of [...]

     My project is going very well at this point. After talking to my priest at my Church about running a food drive there. He told me it was a great idea and he approved of it. He announced to the Church this past on Sunday about my food drive. Many people told me that [...]

Jivory1, thanks for the positive feedback. I really appreciate it. I definitely agree with you that world hunger is a huge problem and that is why I have chosen this project. If more people contribute to the problem of world hunger, the less of a problem it will be.
Mdeloach7, the project is going pretty [...]
