Bethel Baptist Church never encountered a challenge like this before. The church accepted an invitation to participate in a mission in Shawnee, Oklahoma. Making an appearance in a foreign environment terrified both adolescents and adults. Even with those uneasy feelings, the congregation quickly zeroed in on the goal at hand in spreading God’s love to this needy region. With events such as church cleanup, food ministry, and disaster relief, the church left with a greater appreciation of life, and how lucky many of the citizens in the United States truly are.

Senior Research Paper College is such an important decision in so many people’s lives, however when talking about furthering my education, two places come to mind. Oral Roberts University and Oklahoma State University, in my opinion are a duo, in having a significant meaning, beautiful campuses, and a bundle of student population. Comparing the tuition, scholarships, and room/board, all of these decisions in which all have meaning to my decision of where to further my education and what makes my decision difficult. However, both of these two universities are highly traditional with it being Oral Roberts with the praying hands or Oklahoma State with the unfortunate tragedy that occurred on October 24, 2015. These significant occurrences and symbols all have meaning behind the university itself.
My Argument Stephen A. Douglas I didn’t want slavery to spread into other territories. Let’s spread slavery into the west, and other places. I’m more honest than many other people. I tell it as it is. It’ll show the world that we’re dominate.
A School where you are surrounded by people of all ages, you are taught by real college professors and have to take responsibility for yourself. This was a huge step for me, along the way I fumbled and sort of slipped of track, but my devotion for my dream of attending college and entering the health profession pulled me right back on tract. My whole life I have been devoted to education and striving to do better. My strive for bettering myself and reaching my goals and dreams will never stop, no matter
God and church activities have been a part of my weekly routine for as long as I can remember. If it is nine o’clock on a Sunday morning, I will definitely be in a church pew at Highland Baptist Church. My parents make sure that I understand the importance of going to church and trying to exemplify the spirit of Christ daily. I have been given the amazing opportunity to be raised on Godly morals in a strong Christian household. Because of this, God has always been the center of my life, or at least that is what I thought.
When I first visited Berry College in my sophomore year of high school, I immediately could envision myself as a Viking. During my tour, I not only got to discover Berry’s beautiful campus and quaint buildings, but also witness the sense of community among both students and faculty. As a Christian, I value Berry’s Christian roots and principles, and it would be a blessing to go to a school where I would be able to find support and fellowship through campus ministries and fellow students. As I have continued through my high school career and have developed a better idea of what I want to accomplish with my life, I believe that Berry College would allow me an exceptional academic foundation for me.

This I Believe Memoir Do you ever feel like hiding, hiding from your fears, I know I do. In this essay I’m going to tell the story in which the day I found out my parents love me and always will. Around seven years ago a boy lay mind racing about what he had just done this boy,is me. Earlier that I day I was playing catch with myself by throwing the ball into the year getting the adrenaline rush of running to the ball, until I threw it to low hitting my window and causing it to fall to pieces in front of my eyes. The worst about it was that I was home alone.
Do you think she silenced the room? I imagine some sat in disbelief, perhaps others in confusion and yet, I'm sure, every lady there must have been challenged by her words. I was challenged, by my Pastor's wife, as she shared a story about a speaker at a ministers wives conference she had recently attended. The speaker stood up and boldly announced that none of them believed in God's word and were Bible illiterate.
Exhausted, toiling hard dawn to dusk, ceaselessly hunting enrolment to a decent US university sat I. The panic if my skull exploded prior to my enrolment obliged me to soothe stress watching: “Jesus: The Movie”. Anxiety of the course of my destiny strolled over my head. Suddenly, a gleam of the screen glowed into a solid shape. Jesus Christ himself!!
Growing up Christianity had always been part of my life and there was no question about it. My family was christian and the culture that my parents grew up in was heavily religious. However, I personally never had a true connection to Christ at a young age. To me church was the place I went to answer questions in Sunday School and win prizes for it, and that was how I saw it for a long time. It was hard for me to see it has more than that and from the outside I may have looked like the kid had a true connection with Christ by the way I talked in front of the church when my class presented, or the fact that I was able to answer most if not all the questions correctly.
“In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.” I said as i dutifully made the sign of the cross and picked up my book of hymns. As the organist began playing, I stared at the large golden cross that hung above the altar, its metallic sheen contrasting with the deep green marble. I was baptized as a Catholic, attended a Catholic elementary school and high school, and attended church every Sunday with my family. I made my first reconciliation and received a small silver cross necklace with a tiny peridot in the center.
Many people have different views on heaven. Some people believe there is a heaven while others do not believe there is a heaven. For me, it is hard to determine if there is a heaven, I do believe that there is an afterlife. The five people I will meet in heaven are Angela Merwin, Thomas Lester Wise, Adam Wise, Brandy Mellott, and Sammie Butler-Merwin.
