Double Dawgs Project: Second Report of We Want to do More Than Survive: Abolitionist Teaching and the Pursuit of Educational Freedom Dr. Bettina Love continues to reveal ways in which the education system as a whole places focus and emphasis on the wrong areas, resulting in Black and Brown students being forced to “comply” to the systematic structure of the educational system (Love, 2019, p. 70). She goes on to describe how “dark folx’ humanity is dependent on how much they disobey and fight for justice” describing how it “can sometimes be a losing battle” (Love, 2019, pp. 70-71). In this way, Love uses the analogy of a battle to represent the continual and past struggles that Brown and Black students are subjected to which attempts

A Lesson Before Dying Essay In the novel, A Lesson Before Dying, Ernest J. Gaines recounts the life and struggles of the colored people. He uses memories from his life to give personalities to the characters as well as give an accurate setting.

The experiences patients go through are one like no other. They come to, “...express a spiritual realm and a loving presence that some refer to as God…” (Lichfield). During this period they might also come, “into contact with relatives that have been deceased, and at the same time, recalling previous events that occured in one's life” (Lichfield). These experiences have been documented to change people's lives as some go on to new professions and ending marriages as a result of their subconscious experience.
Throughout A Lesson before Dying, Ernest J. Gaines writes of Grant Wiggins’s two intertwined struggles to escape different powers in his life.

The book opens with Grant Wiggins recalling a trial, where a young black man, Jefferson, was wrongfully accused of murder. In an attempt to free his client, Jefferson’s lawyer refers to Jefferson as a mindless hog, who could not have known what he was doing. The case was lost, and Jefferson was sentenced to death by the judge.
Shockingly, “an extraordinary opportunity, happy state, hearts filled with love,” you’ve been forgiven by good, offered another chance. Christ has you on his palm, washed from every sin and now living life

Dr. C. Moorer’s novel not only resonates with those who are downtrodden and are looking to God for help in their endeavors, but also those who are not religious and are searching for success and fulfillment in their lives. In From Failure to Promise – "360 Degrees" Moorer establishes six different ‘tracks’ as it were, that have allowed him to reach his final success, each one having a profound and vital lesson for the reader. The track that conveyed the most helpful life lessons for an incoming college senior was Off Track, because it allows those who are struggling to realize that amidst failure and struggle, comes hope and renewal. As Moorer puts it: failure is often the result of a flawed system, which means in a religious sense that the
Now that I am continuing my education and pursuing my masters in occupational therapy, I understand the importance of spirituality in this practice. Not only does religion focus on one’s specific believes, but also encourages patients to have hope and faith to continue improving their overall health.

When faced with sin, a person should choose repentance with God’s mercy and grace. Jesus’ work on the cross provides hope, restoration, and liberty to those who accept its provisions. Similarly to Chillingworth and Dimmesdale, the individual chooses how God’s work will dictate his
SINGAPORE BIBLE COLLEGE Book Reflection: The Wounded Healer by Henri J. M. Nouwen Submitted to Esther Tan CO502 – Theory and Practice in Counseling by Shongzan Chanlila Khayi Mail Box # 120 SINGAPORE 21 August, 2013 The Wounded Healer by Henri J.M. Nouwen is one such book which is simple yet very insightful, solemn yet very challenging. He stirs up our interest as he deals with the biggest concern of our modern day leaders in our churches and society – the struggle with our weaknesses. And I believe his philosophy goes much deeper than what is actually written.
“Father God, in Jesus Christ’s name I come to You today and I confess that I am a sinner.” “I confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord and I believe in my heart that Jesus Christ died on the Cross for my sins, and that He rose again on the third day and is now seated at the right hand of God the Father and will return one day for me.” “I now confess all my sins known and unknown, and repent of them.” “Lord Jesus Christ, I ask You to forgive me and cleanse me from all sin.” “Lord Jesus Christ, I ask You to come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour and to fill me with Your Holy Spirit.”
