Week 7

I think that there are many advantages to field working. In my case I get to learn a lot more about my own religion by viewing it in many different ways. I also get to know a little more about the people that and preaching to me by setting up interviews and talking with them. I think I can give back to my community ,especially to the outsiders, by showing how and what Christians do on a daily basis to keep our faith alive and that Christianity is not what most stereotypes say it is. The stereotypical thinking goes both ways and by giving the interviews with a few of my non-Christian friends I think it will give the Christian viewers a more open view of the whole situation. I hope to give back to my own subculture what they have given to me; the freedom to stand up for what I believe in and not let others try to persuade me other wise. My contribution to my community would be to show them that Christianity is about love and forgiveness and not just about obeying certain rules or behaving a certain way. My contribution to this class and my education is that I put as much effort into all of the homework assignments and go to all of the classes so that I can do the very best that I can in order to become successful in what I do in the future.
