Iii A English Ii Presentation 4: Overcoming Trauma In A Group Therapy Setting, Kate Vriesema
Life of the Scholar Multidisciplinary Conference
Group therapy is something that is not utilized very often in Young Adult (YA) literature. Whenever there is any type of therapy in these novels, it is almost always one-on-one, which makes sense because it is the most effect treatment for mental illness. But for a condition like PTSD, which is more intense and solitary than any other mental disorder, group therapy can be extremely beneficial in learning how to regulate emotions and how to interact and relate with others. Through the example of the Turning the Tidesprogram, I will show how I implemented my research of group therapy …

Life of the Scholar Multidisciplinary Conference
The research in this presentation reflects an approach to finding a resolve to one issue presented by God’s omniscience. God’s omniscience raises the question of how much freedom humans have to make choices if God, who created all things, already knows (in the sense that God determines) the choices that humans have made, are making, and will make. Furthermore, if God’s omniscience determines humans’ choices then God’s omniscience is the cause for everything that happens and, thus, God’s omniscience is the cause for everything that is evil. To the issue that omniscience creates, this presentation examines the compatibilist approaches of …

I A Religion And Philosophy Presentation 1: What The Theology Of Hebrews Reveals About Authorship, Austin Childress
Life of the Scholar Multidisciplinary Conference
Traditional approaches to studying the authorship of Hebrews have employed many literary methods, but they have notably excluded large-scale theological studies of the ancient book. My hope in this exercise was to survey the theological themes in Hebrews with the hope of coming to a better understanding of who the author mayhave been. The three major theological themes I noticed were Christology, Ecclesiology, and theology of Scripture; inside of each of these branches of Christian theology I found several implications that could provide a clearer understanding of who the author was. My next step was to look behind the …
