2 Session 5 Final Assignment 1.In Session 1, you were asked to read CCU’s Strategic Priorities . Review the strategic priorities again in light of what we have talked about thus far in the course. Identify two of the strategic objectives that reflect a biblical or Christian worldview and explain how you see the elements of the worldview exemplified. Objective 1: Teach students to trust the Bible, live holy lives, and be. Evangelist. (“Strategic Objectives,” n.d.) CCU puts the objective into play in three practical ways. As students, we are all taught to trust the Bible as the complete word of God. Bickel and Jantz Describe in their book Knowing the Bible, 101. "The Bible is God's revelation of himself to people." (Bickel & Jantz,2003, pg19). Regardless of what course. You may be taken. The professor has a way of bringing us back to the powerful word of Scripture. Even though this is only my second course here at CCU, I have had a fantastic experience with the professors. Their engagement and direction Help me find all the answers I seek to real-world problems. Second, CCU does an outstanding job encouraging our students to live Christ-like lives. In these classes, we are being challenged to look outside of ourselves. Text courage and calling. 2011. Encourage us to live out Christ-like lives by following Our Calling. In other classes, similar texts have encouraged the same ideas that God made us unique and is equipping us to take his message to the masses. The third point is CCU teaching students to follow what James told us to be; "But be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves." (James 1: 22. EVS). CCU gives us the tools, resources, and knowledge to apply Scripture to our lives. We have the love of Christ in our hearts and the desire to share him with the nation. I love being a part of CCU's family because I am being nurtured and equipped to spread the word of our Savior, Jesus Christ.
3 Objective 2: Seeking the truth. (“Strategic Objectives,” n.d.) I have only been at CCU briefly, but I have been so impressed by the encouragement to learn and grow as a person, a child of God, and an adult learner. This university is investing in my life, changing my abilities, and demonstrating a way to provoke me to dive deeper into the questions in each assignment. SCU. We are taught to seek God's Word and spread His Word, as Proverbs 27:17 tells us. "As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17, NIV). 2. After you have identified how the Christian worldview is evident in two of the strategic priorities, reflect on what you have learned throughout this course by answering the following questions: a. What did you discover about CCU that expanded your understanding of what it means to attend Colorado Christian University? I expected that attending a Christian university would mean pretending to be always a good Christian with no flow. To my surprise, others were like me, from the faculty and my classmates at CCU. I am not just a member or a dollar sign. I am an essential part of the body of Christ, and I love that. I realize that who I am and am becoming reflects CCU and my father. I am humbled to join CCU and walk this world with my fellow Christians. CCU has given me the confidence that I will receive a fantastic education. And a better perspective on a Christian worldview. Not only am I being taught my major, but I am also learning about the Bible, God, and even myself. Based on other schools I have attended, CCU is incredibly special, and I am glad I am here. b. What did you discover that may have the greatest impact on your approach to your education at Colorado Christian University?

4 The best part of my experience at CCU is that it is Acceptable. And even encourage. Two questions previously held views and assumptions—CCU concern with my intellectual, Professional, and spiritual growth. Learn how to ask the right questions of myself, my classmates, and even my professors to gain prompt knowledge and genuine understanding. For example. I had previously agreed with what Smith described in his book Courage and Calling. "Deep within the psyche of most Christians, the assumption that religious works is inherently more sacred than all other activities." (Smith, 2011, pg. 35). Now, after attending a few classes here at CCU, I have begun to be stimulated to challenge the questions. Furthermore, I have realized that God has equipped me to do well with his gift. My calling is to be a mental health counselor. It is lifelong and not just limited to my current place in life. There are not enough words to thank CCU and God for believing in me and giving me the time to accomplish my goals in life. Here are some of my favorite Scriptures I would like to leave you with. “One night, the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent.” (Acts 18:9b, NIV) “And let us consider how we may spur one another on towards love and good deeds—not giving up, meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another-and all the more as you see the day approaching.” (Hebrews 10 24-25, NIV) “Start children off on the way they should go. And even when they are old, they will not turn from it.” Proverbs 22:6, NIV)
