We read Psalm 23 today – make sure that you get the notes from another student.

Afterwards, we listened/read Gangsta’s Paradise and did the foldable – Folding Venn Diagram. You are are going to compare/contrast Psalm 23 with Gangsta’s Paradise. Make sure you have three differences and three similarities. Print, cut, and fold and turn in to Riley.

We read the Prodigal Son (copy/paste the definition of prodigal into your copy of the text). Get the notes from another classmate. We can easily see the difference between the Bible as Literature and theology with this story.

Riley then explained that tomorrow, we are writing a parable to explain/prove a maxim or a proverb. She has a list of proverbs to choose from, and you need to find a proverb that you like/find insightful, and explain it (in the drop box entitled Maxim for Modern Day Parable).

We started out today with a discussion board about where we find wisdom. Make sure that you list ONE place or person where you find wisdom. Read your classmates, and rate them on how helpful they are.

WE then read the Article Bible as Literature and and answered the Discussion Board questions: Bible as Literature. Only three questions – pretty simple.

As of right now, 7 students would take a Bible as Literature class here at Vistas; * would pass it. Pair has two votes to teach the class, Schinderling has 1 vote to teach it, Riley has1 vote, and Gonzalez has one vote.

We read the King James Background. Get the notes from a classmate.

We read Ecclesiastes  3:1 and listened to the song Turn, Turn, Turn. Get the notes from a classmate.
