I have a desire in me to always positively move forward towards my goals no matter any perceived obstacles

Who am I? That is a good question. I guess I really never stop to think about it. Most people are defined by their family or their career. For example‚ if I were to ask "who is Barack H. Obama?" most people would say that he is the president of the United States. If you asked about any-one‚ they would usually explain who the person is by what they do or who their family is. So if you want to know that‚ well‚ I am a senior at Milford High School‚ I am the daughter of Eric and Pam B....and I am 17 years

When I was in Japan‚ I used to live with my parents‚ and my mom always took care of me; however‚ I am now living alone in the U.S. I strongly think that there are more advantages to living with parents more than living alone during the college years.

This unity is not only a spiritual reality‚ but a physical one as well‚ for Jesus teaches that the oneness of the Church would be a witness to the world (Jn. 17:23). I have come to realize that Protestantism‚ in principle‚ cannot unify Christians. Sola scriptura effectively makes unity in moral code
