Chapter 1 - leadership why now? 1. Leadership Transition: Due to the leadership challenges there is a widespread call not just for leadership, but a new kind of leadership.

Introduction/Thesis The Bible’s New Testament book of Romans, chapters 1-8, provides a fundamental perspective and useful resource on how God desires to shape our worldview.

I agree with France. Women should have the same roles in the church that men have. They are people too, and to deny them equal rights based on gender seems a bit medieval.

to judge our lives accordingly. In Paul’s third letter to the Jews and gentiles in Rome, Paul emphasizes that we are all sinners and not worthy to be in or near the presence of God; however, through the sanctifying work of redemption through Christ Jesus’ death and resurrection this is now possible for anyone who believes in Him through faith. Paul expresses in his letter how Christians should live their life out through faith; although this is not an exhaustive list, it does place heavy emphasis on

He uses this phrase because the Kingdom of God could be interpreted as more of a physical place on earth while the Reign of Heaven can be thought of as life after death as well. The people that Matthew was writing for were questioning how to follow Jesus without the temple or the land. With the phrase The Reign of Heaven, it can represent a place that is not physical and could resonate with the community.

so true. We as a nation have found ourselves just accepting to everything and anything that happens in our society we should just conform to and be okay with. I disagree with that because we should be teaching our youth the one and only truth. That Jesus died for us and that the only way to God the father is through him. 2. “In studying the Bible as a young man, I found intimations of the idea that forms of media favor particular kinds of content and therefore are capable of taking command of
