Describe a time when you felt completely lost.

 A time a felt lost is the time I felt disconnected from God. Throughout my teenage years, I’ve always put a lot of pressure on myself to be a perfect human being for Christ. One Time when I messed up, I felt like God just didn't want anything to do with me Anymore so I fell into a deep pit of guilt. So for months I went without reading my bible, praying, etc. At the time, I felt like confused, lost, scared, stressed, and useless. It was not until then that a day I stubble across a video on the internet, with another follower of Christ, a man who has also struggled with sinning. In the video, he tells his story and it suddenly connects to me. He shares this verse, 1 John 4:18-19, and elaborates on how even though we mess up God still loves us and will never create a feeling of torment for us. After watching that video, it uplifted me and showed me that even God still loves me, the me where I mess up or fall into to things of the world, but even still, he loves me as his Child.

Analyze how you’ve adapted to the demands of this course over the past week, and evaluate one strength and one challenge you anticipate as we progress, justifying your insights with personal examples.

 My adaptations to the demand of this course simply came from being in class every 4 days, taking notes on information I can retain, and answering questions from Mr. Rease. The one strength I've shown so far in this class, Is just writing down notes that assist me on the topic we're on. Whether it's just writing down factors about cultural identity or someone else's cultural identity, I've become strong to how this class functions. Though I'll say the only weakness I've had is putting my thoughts together in this class. Whether it's on a blog, or a paper assignment, the thought process has been the most challenging in this class. There's nothing wrong with the questions thrown at us, but it's the thought I have to put in the question to answer it to my fullest. Closing this blog, I have adapted and shown my strength by paying attention to whatever we're assigned, such as documentaries about people's cultural identity or notes. The thing t...

If someone tried to understand you using only your race, what important things would that person miss? Describe at least three other parts of your cultural identity that help make you who you are.

 If someone tried to only understand me using race, they're missing key details about my identity. First off, my identity is shaped around Christ. I look as Jesus Christ as my guide in life and my Lord and Savior. I'm not trying to say you're less of me if you do not honor your life through Christ, But understanding through race over this is the missing piece you have about me. The second but most thing that'll be miss is my life experiences. Most of the time I meet someone, They did or almost went through the same things I went through. Most of my friends dad has walked out of their lives just like mine(This is a negative experience but it helps me connect with other people easily), and other people I have met throughout the years mostly spend time on their mom side when it comes to family gatherings. The last thing I'll say that will be the last missing piece in trying to understand me is my culture. I'm from Georgia, which is a southern state, so somethings I...
