Covid 19 - Vocabulary (special words )

  The Coronavirus pandemic has been in our world for almost two years and in that time, we've had to expand our vocabularies extensively. For this year's Media Literacy Week, we've put together a list of vaccine-related words to help you make informed decisions about the health news you might be reading, watching and listening to. It's important to know what certain words mean, so you can make sure the information you're getting is truthful. Vaccine or vaxxine (noun) A vaccine is a substance that is put into the blood and protects the body from a disease. Example: The Covid-19 vaccine was developed to protect humans from the novel coronavirus during the global pandemic. You might have seen vaccine spelled with an X, like this "vaxxine". This spelling is incorrect, however many people will understand the use of the word as slang. Vaccinated/unvaccinated (verb) To be vaccinated means to be given a vaccine to protect against a disease.

Parenting - Kids Misbehave (in the church )

This is a smaller church with small group (about 7 of the 13 to 15 years old ) ....... Kids were misbehave during church worship service.

Illustration - Who is a sinner ?

  Illustrations -  Who is a sinner ?  I got this from someone else today. I'm not sure who the original author is. I've edited and modified it slightly for illustration purposes: A man fell in a pit and couldn't get himself out! A subjective person came along and said, “I feel for you down in that pit.” An objective person came along and said, “It’s logical that someone would fall in this pit.” A Christian Scientist came along and said, “You only think you’re in a pit.” A Pharisee said, “Only bad people fall into a pit.” A Sadducee said, "You better figure out how to get out of that pit because there are no angels to come and help you." Confucius said, “If you would have listened to me you wouldn’t be in that pit.” Buddha said, “Your pit is only a state of mind.” A realist said, “Now, that’s a pit!” A scientist calculated the pressure necessary in terms of pounds and square inches to get him out of the pit. A geologist told him to appreciate and study the rock str...
