After completing Microeconomics I had a bigger picture of the “small” part of our economic

I believe that it is vitally important to develop and maintain a small group in my current ministry setting. As a youth pastor I feel that students need to have small group times to get to know their peers better and further their own relationship with Christ. Small groups would allow for students to open up to one another and express themselves. Students would be willing to open up and talk about current issues that they are facing. They could do this with other teens and the group leaders. I think

As we are wrapping up this semester, our reading has turned to the e-booklet that prepares us for the RVE Praxis test. I have not taken this test yet, but am scheduled to take it in a few weeks, so this reading was very beneficial for me.

Lesson two states that the American culture relies heavily on media, and that is not as valuable to learning as literature. I completely agree. It stated that an American child from age five to age eighteen has viewed over 20,000 hours of television and electronic media. That is an abundant amount of time spent doing that opposed to spending time doing homework and studying. There needs to be more of a balance in the use of electronic curriculum and traditional curriculum. I know that when I was

Who does inflation help? According to our text “Inflation is the increase in the general level of prices of goods and services”(Gwartney, 2012). Our text goes on to explain that the “purchasing power of a dollar goes down when inflation is present” (Gwartney, 2012).

Inflation can also reduce investments for companies and in some cases slow production of a product or service
