• Reflections from Serving the Homeless

  

  This last semester, the options where I could serve when I began were extremely limited due to COVID-19, and it was difficult to keep the relational element of the intent of serving as well.

• Paraphrase of Romans 6:1-14

  

  Using my definitions from my last post, I have written a paraphrased translation of Romans 6:1-14. Original text: What shall we say then? Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound? By no means! How can we who died to sin still live in it? Do you not know that all of us…
