Leadership- Winston Churchill

So this weekend I am suppose to type a seven to ten page paper on why I feel like Winston Churchill fits my method of leadership. This is a group project but i decided that I would be the one to type the paper. Why would I volunteer? I am pretty sure that I was not thinking at the time that I told the other two members in my group that I would.

So here I am sitting here at 1:29 in the morning wondering where should I start? I guess I could start by telling a little bit about his life growing up and maybe what inspired him to become so great. I have to have ten sources and at least six of them have to be pretty consistent through the paper.

Pondering...

1.) Statement of direction.
What is the purpose of my paper?
2.) The growing up of Winston Churchill
What are some events in which I can cover that best describe him as an adult?

... I need some ideas. The paper has to be written in APA. This is funny because in High School all they taught me to write was MLA format. I have only used MLA once in my two years in college.

Personal Bible Study #1

I am venturing into a love relationship with Jesus Christ. I want it to be bigger than me and bigger than I could ever dream. In an effort to be more committed I am posting my personal encounters with God so that all may know and hopefully see the evidence of Christ in my life.

Personal Bible Study #1

Galatians 2

Paul might have spent fourteen years preparing for his ministry. This preparation period included time alone with God, as well as time conferring with other Christians. Often new Christians in their zeal wanting to begin full time ministry without investing the necessary time studying the Bible and learning from qualified leaders.

Commentary:

"We need not wait to share Christ with our friends, but we may need preparation before embarking on a special ministry. Whether volunteered or paid. While we wait on God's timing we must study, learn and grow.

2.2
Paul goes in response to a revelation. God appeared to Paul and told him to go and talk to those in Jerusalem and tell them that salvation is for everyone.

2:11
Confutation in the Faith- Paul vs. Peter and all the Jews

Immediately Paul confronts the issue "I opposed him to his face... because he was clearly in the wrong."

The argument 1 on 1

Peter: "You must be saved through Christ bu you must also follow all the laws."

Paul: "You must be saved through Christ."

Paul's argument against peter is that he has been proclaiming that Christ is not enough to save you from your sins.

Christ is all you need!

What I want in life...

There are several things that I want in life...

1.) I truly have a desire to live my life for Jesus Christ.

I want to be effective in sharing Jesus to others and over the past year it seems that I have really struggled with this. I truly want to be a vessel for Jesus Christ and live my life selflessly for him.

2.) I really want to be married and live with my spouse.

I want to enjoy moments that are unforgettable. I want to look forward to coming home from and just hanging out. I want to be able to save money for certain things and buy them together. I want to be able to do things for other people and see God work through us. Hosting a small group in my home would be amazing! I want to be so in love with each other that we would have no desire to fight or argue. I want my spouse to appreciate me and listen to me no matter if I am struggling in the word or not. I want her to be submissive and always ready to do random things. I want to go on vacations and do fun things.

3.) I want to have a great job and career in the IT field that I look forward to waking up and heading to everyday. I want health benefits that will cover me and help with my family.

I want to work on computers enough during the day that when I come home I really won't have a desire to do it at home; however, if i do desire to do it at home some I want my wife to understand. I want to be able to have a hobby other than working all day long. Just because I do computers for my job should not limit me to having them as a hobby. For instance my own small business could be part of my hobby or it could be a way to bring in some more money. There are going to be times though that I am going to want to do things for fun aside from my own small company.

4.) I want a family.

After a few years of marriage I want to have kids. How many I do not know but what I do know is that I love kids. I want to be sure that I can provide for them and be able to spend time with them. I want to go camping a lot and enjoy the weekends that we will have as a family. I want my children to know that their daddy loves them and is always looking out for their best! I want to cuddle with them and watch their favorite movies and read them their favorite stories. I want to be able to tuck them in most nights and read them a story as they dose off to sleep. I want to be the traditional family that loads up on Sunday mornings and heads off to to church.

5.) I want friends that care.

I want to have friends that would do anything for me. I want them to come hang out with me and my wife. I want married friends as well! Couples that would come over and watch movies with us and play games. (Marbles)
