Saint Teresa of Avila
Judge and Decide 1. Discuss what Teresa is saying in the above prayer. How does this fit in with the image of the Church as the Body of Christ in the world?
I think that Teresa is trying to say that we all have Christ within our hearts and we are him in a sense because we were made in the vision of God and he is God’s son. This fits into that image in the way that we as humans make up the church so it says that we are a part of him just as much as he is a part of us. 2. Outline five ways in which we as Catholics can show Christ’s compassion to the world.

1. Showing empathy when needed. 2. Forgiving everyone who needs your forgiveness. 3. Helping others who need it. 4. Putting others before you and your needs. 5. Loving others just as he loves us.

3. What will you choose to do yourself?
I try to do all of these but I often find it hard to do most of them, so I try to focus in the ones that are absolutely necessary for us to live in peace and harmony.
Sharing Faith with Family and Friends 1. How can you imagine your family being one to witness Christian values, sharing the word of god together when appropriate, sharing together in some kind of regular family worship, and caring before the welfare of family members as well as people outside the family.
I would personally love for those things to be a common thing in my household but I know it won’t happen because humans are greedy and put themselves before everyone else; not everyone within this family circle is religious or even believe in God as an actual being. 2. What can you contribute to helping your family be the ‘domestic church’?
I, as an individual and member of this family, can contribute by encouraging others in this family unit to go to church and show the stories in modern day times in which Christianity has been a good thing and has helped people get through their struggles and hard

    Because God loves us, He sent his only Son and let Him die. He also revels to us that love needs to be encountered, and experienced in order to not to be senseless. We see ethical discovery of our dignity in the image of God. As mentioned above, the document also highlighted the importance of human dignity as one of the main roots for the Church and its activity; “the dignity that each human being has Page 3 reached and can continually reach in Christ, namely the dignity of both the grace of divine adoption and the inner truth of humanity, a truth which-if in the common awareness” (RH12). This great truth is one of Church's basic messages to everyone in the world, showing that God truly loves us. A new life is given by redeeming mankind and erasing the past. Church wants everyone to find Christ “in order that Christ may walk with each person the path of life, with the power of the truth about man and the world” (RH 14). Life which is connected by the mystery of incarnation and redemption. As the Pope wrote, “Christ, the new Adam, in the very revelation of the mystery of the Father and of his love, fully reveals man to himself and brings to light his most high calling" (RH 9). Christ provides us with freedom and…

    Lady Capulet tends to believe everything Juliet tells her without ever doubting her true intentions. We can see that she cares about Juliet’s emotions and wants to guide her in the right direction, we can see this when she directly asks her daughter “What say you?/Can you love the gentleman?” (1.3 85-86) At the time this would be very unusual, arranged marriages are very common, and the brides have no say in the matter. However, Lady Capulet takes the liberty to ask Juliet anyways. In response, Juliet says “I’ll look to like, if looking liking move./ But no more deep will I endart mine eye/ than your consent give strength to make it fly.” (1.3 103-105) which has a double meaning. Lady Capulet thinks this means that Juliet will try to like…

    This mission reminds us that for the Kingdom of God to continue to break in, individual lives need to be changed, while being motivated and equipped for transformation. Our Book of Discipline offers this cue: “God has used our church to save persons, heal relationships, transform social structures, and spread scriptural holiness, thereby changing the world.” When we change lives and introduce people to the all-loving nature of God, we indeed transform the world. When making disciples, the Church welcomes people into community, educates them on God’s call for Christians, and equips them toward using their spiritual gifts to serve as change agents playing a role in bringing about the Kingdom of…

    Religious studies and Theology are undoubtedly of invaluable effect on the life of the learner. The two studies have the mandate of transforming the overall perception to life as regards religion, personal beliefs and the philosophy of life. In this study, an array of topics were studied which in the end further enlightened on the mental conception and most interesting was the study involving the claim by Jesus that he was God. In addition to these, the course was informative and elaborates on the questions most people ask about the life of modern day Christians. Does it matter the lifestyle one adopts? Are there any procedures the church can initiate so as to communicate God 's love for the community in a manner that is not questionable and without doubt, but, remains beneficial to all Christians? Indeed, the questions are very relevant and of great importance to any present day Christian living in faith and in such hard times where confusion and…

    15) What were the most important religious events in your family? This was an extremely difficult question for me to answer. The normal person when they were asked this question would say when they were baptized. Myself I was baptized at a extremely young age not by my choice, but of my family choice. When I was discharged from the Navy back in 1982. I lost my mother at an extremely young age. The church that I had been attending splintered into two different factions. Instead of making my own choice of what I wanted to do. I followed my Grandparents and went to the new…

    To gain a better understanding of the impact of family on healthy development, it is worthwhile to consider the various family structures that exist in our culture. The portrait of the family in today’s society is no longer rigidly defined by marriage, which is characterized by a two parent household with children; rather there are increasing numbers of single parents, teen parents, divorced parents and same-sex couple parents. “Sometimes we forget the great variety of forms, not only of the families living amongst us, but also those presented in scripture. There are single person families like Mary, Martha, and their brother Lazarus. There are families experiencing difficulties like Joseph and his brothers, or broken families seeking new life like Naomi and Ruth” (Way, 2003).…

    Have you ever wondered what type of life you should live as a Christian and what all you should do? Is this the right thing to do? Is this a common question that you ask? Do you have personal experiences that our wonderful Lord has been so wonderful in your life? Sharing them with others is a way that is I believe is one way that you can worship him. And something that I believe that my church as a whole can do better in general I know it’s hard to come out and say because you don’t like finding faults and saying them. But honestly when you come out and say them and tell them and things change for the better especially in your church and you are working for the Lord you can see changes every day.…

    First, I really made important connections with this book. For example, the narrator said, “There is a whole world to see, to learn, and like all young they want to see and do it all at once”(40). As a kid and even a teenager you want to do everything at once. One reason is because we have a lot of energy and we want to have a great amount of fun. Also, when we are out with are friends or cousins we are having fun and we want to do stuff that is either inappropriate or maybe even dangerous. Last, for me the most important connection was that sometimes I want to do all at once is really to impress.…
