Unraveling the Mystery at Home
Upon returning home after a tiring day, you find your front door open, lights on, and a sword stuck in the ceiling. The house appears normal except for holes in the backyard. This strange scenario prompts questions about what might have happened in your absence. Meanwhile, in class, you delve into the elements of persuasive sermons, focusing on the famous speech "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God" by Jonathan Edwards. Discussions and group activities further explore the effectiveness of such sermons. An exit ticket prompts reflection on writing skills and synthesis of learning from the week's activities.
