what I felt that day. I would be rented for useless tasks until a man named Joseph came. I am the Donkey who carried Mary to Bethlehem and this is my story about the birth of baby Jesus.

The first thing that happened to me was being chosen by God to be the one who carries Mary all the way to Bethlehem. My whole life was to be rented to people who had useless purposes

Leadership of Jesus The question of whether leaders are born or can be taught is one that is common in leadership discussions. My personal opinion is that leaders can be taught‚ and should be taught by studying the principles and practices by which our history’s most effective leaders led. Furthermore; it is important to realize that leadership through hierarchies is quickly becoming inferior to leadership through service and having a joint vision shared by all those affected by this leader. Jesus was such

Jesus has a great love for his people and wants to bring them to him so that they could go with him to heaven. Throughout his lifetime‚ Jesus performed many miracles. Even John wrote that there had been so many miracles that no book could contain them all. However‚ Jesus did not use these sensations to show how great and powerful he was. He used the miracles to show the people around him what he is the Messiah and he is the man the Old Testament wrote about. He did not need to perform these

I chose two religious figures‚ Buddha and Jesus who had religious experiences and became well known as the founders of their religion. The reason I chose these two people is because Jesus is a well known figure of Christianity and I wanted to compare it to a religion that is more known in the Eastern culture‚ which is Buddhism. Jesus Christ was born to Joseph and Mary born in a manger and was first discovered by some wise men traveling through the dessert. His childhood consisted of growing in the

The Passion of the Christ directed by Mel Gibson depicts the final twelve hours in the life of Jesus of Nazareth‚ on the day of his crucifixion in Jerusalem. This Movie is hardly a historical documentary. It was designed to bring to life the vivid nature and magnitude of Jesus’s sacrifice‚ although theologically it was quite accurate‚ it does contain some historical discrepancies. This movie was accurate in its cinematic portrayal of the attitude and actions of Pilate‚ the Jewish hierarchy‚ the Jewish
