. Before reading chapters one to five in Mae Elise Cannon’s book, Social Justice Handbook: small steps to a better world, I didn’t really have a concrete idea of what Social Justice was exactly. Reading these chapters gave me a better understanding of what we can do as a society and a church to solve social justice issues. Throughout this book many topics are brought up such as sex trafficking, domestic violence and many more heart wrenching topics. The author, Mae Elise Cannon provides us with different approaches regarding how to go about addressing these problems that our society and church struggle with daily.

He went to church every Sunday and even though he heard the words the preacher was saying he did not learn a thing, which made his parents worry and they prayed for him often that he would soon find his way to the Lord. He was also, like many of us, he hated going to school. It wasn't until he got the hang of it that he started to enjoy going. He started to notice that math was starting to make sense and that geography was not just colors on a map but real places. His parents were starting to notice how smart he was and they thought that maybe he was to smart for the 6th grade so they moved him to 7th grade which turned out to be a bad idea because that is when he started to hate school and it was soon after that, that at the age of 14 he would drop out of school.

Although I may not know some of the members that consist of this church, but I can also say that each and every member is apart of my family.
Reflection Paper Theo 104 Liberty University April 14, 2014 I. Introduction The two topics that I would like to discuss in this reflection paper stood out to me in a profound way. First the Eternality of Christ and the second being the Fall of Man. The overwhelming amount of history that I learned in the past four weeks of this Theology class will stay with me and will affect my everyday decisions for the rest of my life. My overall understanding of my topics as well as many others truly stunned me at how uneducated I was in this area.
I History Of Christian Thought/ Professor Hogan Paper The most urgent call for a pastor in church today should be to begin training church youth to grapple with the worldviews of secularism and humanism philosophy, which they will encounter in schools and colleges. We need to make sure we have a strong countering response using the Christian worldview. In our recent time, the 20th century reflected the dangers of humanism as it took over the major sects of education, media and politics. Our youth began to fall away from Bible teaching and believing churches in droves after receiving years of humanist indoctrination in government schools. The remainder, while not totally abandoning their faith, began to have a belief in a
