I have taken three religion courses (an introduction, Jesus Through The Ages, and Reformation and Enlightenment). Not only have I learned more about religion and Christianity, but I have learned more about Jesus and myself.
Only lately have I been reading the Bible more thanks to a dear friend of mine to whom I look up to a lot and is an inspiration to me. It breaks my heart to know that I won't be seeing him until next January, because I won't be at Capital next semester (it's my professional semester, which means I have to go to the Recording Workshop in Chillicothe, Ohio, and my internship).
Things I have accomplished:
I have read all the Psalms.
I have read Matthew twice.
I have read Mark once, and I'm in the process of reading it again.
I have read Luke once,
and I've read John once.
I have read Jude, Titus, Hebrews, James, Peter, 1-3 John, and others that I can't remember.
Whenever I see a verse that questions me, I ask someone, usually my pastor, about how to interpret it. For example, I had a question about Matthew 5:48.
[Jesus said:] "Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect."
I got a quick response. You can see the response here.
I have also come to love writing more, even if I'm still not very good at it. I have come to love writing here on this blog about my growth as a Christian.
I love responding to emails and comments. Feel free to send me an email in the Contact page above, or in the many blog posts I have made.
I hope to keep up blogging throughout the summer because I know at least one person reads it.
Have a good summer!
