A series of sermons put together of a central message of his life. This is what All of
Grace written by C.H. Spurgeon is all about. In a short, but impactful book, the grace of God is explained in a way that all can understand. The book opens with a short biography of Spurgeon, and then he begins to speak about grace using bible verses and illustrations in order to help others understand it. Spurgeon hopes that all who read this will apply what they learned and see the importance of Christ in their life.

I was sitting on the train reading the book and I almost didn’t want to finish it and just hand it to someone on the train because it explained the gospel in such a relatable way and Spurgeon had such an interest in the salvation of those around them. He was able to explain in an amazing manner about all of our need for Jesus. Since Spurgeon goes step by step in the gospel, I believe it would help out who is contemplating Christianity go step by step what it means that it is grace that we are saved, and not by works. There are clear examples, that through the ages, have applied and will continue to apply to people. The book puts everyone on an equal playing field, which makes the book applicable for believers as well.
It helped encouraged me, and helped me out in ways in which I can explain grace in the gospel to others. The special features in which I noticed were the simple illustrations. They are simple enough in a way where I would feel comfortable using them to explain parts of the Bible in a children’s ministry situation. Spurgeon from the beginning of the book until the end, puts the reader into the story, and wants to bring all into a relationship with

I truly enjoy how I can read one of his books and when I have finished, I have learned some type of life lesson to obtain in my future. In my opinion, I think involving a life lesson in books is a great idea. Involving life lessons in a book can change people's life, and how they view certain aspects of many different things. Teaching a reader a life lesson in a book, makes the book well granted, and makes me feel like I received more out of the book than just reading it. One lesson I learned was drug abuse.

At this point Edwards has grasped the attention of his listeners by using pathos to pertain to their emotions and feelings. Towards the end of the sermon his tone switches to one of reason in terms of not neglecting his words. He asks a series of rhetorical questions such as those who are unconverted and do not teach their children of Christ that they too will have to witness the wrath of God. As for literary devices such as metaphors, similes, and allegories, Edwards does not disappoint for his use of them most likely whipped a lot of Puritans back into their faith.

Alias Grace is an authentically stimulating but also disturbing novel printed in 1996 and written by the Canadian novelist, poet, essayist and literary critic Margaret Atwood. It won the Canadian Giller Prize and was considered for the Booker Prize. The story is set in Canada and one of the main details that turns this novel to be so addictive is the fact that Atwood decides to portray on a story based on veracious facts about a murderess of the 1940’s. However, this story has to be considered as a fiction because there are many parts that are inventions of Atwood’s imagination, she alleged that as many versions were provided she had to choose the more suitable and fulfil the unknown aspects. Grace Marks, the main character, was accused of taking part in the murders of her employer, Thomas Kinnear and his housekeeper and mistress Nancy Montgomery, who was pregnant.

Writing about controversial subjects can often be difficult; however Hughes executed his story, Salvation, in an intriguing manner that is suitable to all audiences and religions. In this story, the writer retells an experience from his childhood describing his journey to Jesus Christ. Discussing the complications, the main character, Hughes, faced while trying to come to Jesus is what makes the story interesting to read. On many occasions, you will read a story or watch a movie that shows the main character coming to Jesus and having an immediate and obvious realization of their Savior. For this reason, I found this story to be unique and relatable in the way that it shows a journey that countless Christians face, but you are not often granted the opportunity to read about this type of experience.

In 2005, director Ang Lee adapted Annie Proulx’s 1998 short story Brokeback Mountain, and while they both tell the same story with the same characters, the message and take away from each version is different. This story, in both the book and film, follows the lives of two cowboys from Wyoming in the 1960s who have an affair and are eventually torn apart. Jack Twist and Ennis Del Mar face opposition in their affair both from the outside world because of the conservative era they live in, and from inside and their internalized homophobia. Both the book and the film manage to tell the story of these men but do it in different ways. While many scenes and exact excerpts of dialogue from the book are incorporated into the movie (rather faithfully),

In general I think people could take a lot of things out of this book. I think that because people could learn how to support and persevere other people. Trust would be the next thing that people should take out of this book because the characters in this book show how to trust another person without even seeing the person before. Overall the book has taught me alot of things also eg; to trust my surroundings and to take risks more.

This story made me realize that Judy wasn’t a too nice of a girl. I began to see more to book characters and to other people. I no longer took them at face value nor for granted. This book caused me to read more books with substance and less books about a moody kid with mood rings and dried cherries, not that there were many books like that. This book gives me a lot of nostalgia and I like this book.

Because Bunyan wrote The Pilgrim’s Progress as an allegory rather than a novel, Christian is not represented as particularly complicated or conflicted and has a simple personality. Christian represents just one profound aspect of the human experience: the search for religious truth. He is his faith (hence his name). Christian’s motivation, the search for salvation in the Celestial City, clearly defines him. Christian is deeply goal oriented.
