@danreichardt_ @michellemosier I agree that learning about the women in the bible was important because now we know their stories of what they had to experience. With this class I learned about more women because the only woman's story I knew the best was Eve.
@torilynchaaa@michellemosier I agree that it is interesting learning all the women's stories because I feel like in the bible the women were portrayed as not important or their feelings were never considered.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw14 Most important thing I learned was how the misinterpretation of the bible lead to the discrimination of many different groups of people including Native Americans, people of color, people of different religions, women & the LGBT community.
@WillGarey2@michellemosier I like the Mustard Seed parable too because I connect it that sometimes the smallest things in our lives can make a huge impact later on. For the seed it made a positive impact to the environment around it.
@schoenherr_emma@michellemosier I agree that the wedding parable is a great reference to heaven and hell because the women that didn't make it into the banquet had no light and did not know the day or hour. Which can be connected to without God you are lost in the dark.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw13 I liked the Laborers in the Vineyard because the landowner paid all the workers the same wage even though some workers worked for longer than others. This story shows that God will accept everyone even if you have faith later on than someone else.
@niahchiversxu@michellemosier With Jesus healing/helping the poor this showed that he cared about these people even though they were poor, and had diseases. If Jesus didn't care he could have had these already poor people pay money for him to cure their diseases.
@jack16arm@michellemosier I find that to be interesting too that praying is meant to be in private because out in public people will pray. I also thought it didn't matter if you prayed in public or in private as long as you're in a faithful relationship with God.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw12 The important thing I learned about Jesus is he is faithful to God the entire time Satan was trying to tempt him in the wilderness.(Matthew 4:1-11). Jesus was also strong because he fasted for 40 days when he could have gave into temptation.
@JuliaConnerrr@michellemosier I agree that even though she still ended up paying the consequences what she did was incredibly brave. It is sad that even if she did nothing she still would have had to pay the consequences so for her she had a 50/50 shot on which option would work the best.
@morgan_meyer03 @michellemosier It would have been nice if we knew her name because God must have liked how faithful she was because he spoke with her twice. I also like how she is the one spoken to first instead of Manoah being spoken to.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw11 Most interesting woman for me was Delilah because she was a determined woman who got Samson to tell her his weakness. Delilah could be seen as respected as well because she was not threatened to do what she did and she even got paid.
@HannahMartin15x@michellemosier I like Achsah because she knew that she could get what she wanted since she was the daughter of the king & she was also married. Thinking of the future is something back then most people wouldn't have thought about but she did to provide the future generations.
@joey_bauer12 @michellemosier I agree that the story of Jephthah's daughter is frustrating because we never know the girl's name AND how everyone else was completely fine with her being sacrificed. When someone should have spoken up for the her because it was not her fault for doing the postwar victory song.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw10 Most interesting woman was Jephthah's daughter. She was in an unfortunate situation where she had to be sacrificed due to her father's foolishness. Her story also demonstrates how when no one disobeys the king innocent people will be pay the consequences.
@Courtthamiltonn@michellemosier I agree that Hagar is interesting because she was in an unfair situation and was forced into having a baby with Abraham. Even though she was mistreated God spoke to her and made sure her and Ishmael were blessed.
@jack16arm@michellemosier I agree because in Michal's case she was used as a pawn to help David when he needed help but he never cared for Michal's wellbeing. Michal's story also shows how women in the past were mistreated and viewed as possessions rather than human.
@michellemosier#drmtheo111#qotw9 Most interesting woman was Tamar (David's daughter).She was physically & emotionally mistreated by her family when she was distressed. She was a victim who never received justice for what was done to her & had to carry that baggage for the rest of her life.
@zoebtheo111@michellemosier I agree because saying the first human was not man or woman shows that both woman and man are equal; in support of gender mutuality. It would be nice if we could move forward and make woman equal to man in society instead of having one sex supreme over the other.
