    • St. John Henry Newman: Born in 1801, died in 1890. A devout Anglican priest who converted to Catholicism in 1845. His academic standing suffered due to religious prejudice. Emphasized conscience and the importance of education. His work "The Idea of a University" explored education's role in self-discovery and fulfillment.
    • Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination: Racism: Belief of racial superiority; Prejudice: Negative opinions without facts; Stereotype: Commonly held beliefs, often inaccurate; Discrimination: Treating some people unfairly.
    • Breakfast Club Characters: Characters represent stereotypes: Basketcase, Jock, Criminal, Brain, Princess. (Allison, Andrew, John, Brian, Claire respectively).
    • Four Categories of Identity: People, Places, Things, Events.
    • Radio (Movie): A true story of James "Radio" Kennedy, who overcomes disability through mentorship by Harold Jones.

    Unit 2 - Danica: The Bible and Jesus

    • The Bible: A collection of 73 books (27 New Testament, 46 Old Testament). Written over 1,000 years (1450 BC - ~100 AD). Divided into the Old and New Testaments. The Old Testament focuses on the covenant between God and the Jewish people, while the New Testament centers on Jesus' life, death, and resurrection. The bible has been translated into almost 2000 languages (with key milestones like the Gutenberg Bible (1456) and the first complete English Bible (1535)).
    • Dead Sea Scrolls: Fragments of Old Testament books found in caves near the Dead Sea. Hidden by the Essenes and providing insight into scripture accuracy over the centuries.
    • Abraham and His Family: Abraham's story includes facing God's commands, obeying, and experiencing familial relationships. He was called by God to establish a new nation facing challenges with his wife and a maidservant. He obeyed God's command to sacrifice his son Isaac, but was stopped by God.
    • The Story of Moses: Moses, an Israelite raised as an Egyptian prince, led the Israelites out of slavery. Performed miracles (parting the Red Sea).
    • Literal vs. Contextual Approach (to Bible): Literal: Interpreting words literally; Contextual: Understanding the historical, cultural, and situational context.
    • Jesus, the Christ: Began ministry around age 30, preaching about love, forgiveness, and the Kingdom of God. Performed miracles, gathered disciples, was crucified. His resurrection and ascension affirmed divinity and led to Christianity's global spread.

    Unit 3 - Ariana: The Hero's Journey

    • The Hero's Journey: Seven stages: Birth/Early Life, Discovery of Purpose, Retreat/Leaving the Familiar, Call to Adventure, Difficulties and Challenges, Crisis/Final Challenge, Victory/Goal Achieved. Jesus' life exemplifies these stages.
    • Jesus: Born to Mary and Joseph, mission recognized by Simeon. Spent time in the wilderness (resisting temptation), baptized by John, ministry involving healing and casting out demons. Faced crucifixion (crisis), resurrection, and teaching disciples.
    • Differences between Luke and Matthew's accounts of Jesus' birth: Luke's account focuses on shepherds (in Bethlehem), while Matthew highlights wise men (also in Bethlehem). Matthew doesn't mention Nazareth prior to Bethlehem in the same way that Luke mentions that.

    Unit 4 - Ariana: Creation

    • Creation: God's purposeful act of creating everything. Genesis presents creation in seven stages (Days 1-7). God resting on the seventh day.
    • Adam and Eve: Created in a garden, sinned by eating from the Tree of Knowledge, and were expelled.
    • Four Truths of the Jewish/Christian worldview: One God created everything, creation was planned, all creation is good, the Sabbath is holy.
    • Human Domination Over Earth: The Bible's idea of dominion should be interpreted as responsible stewardship, not exploitation.
    • Sin and Alienation: Five types of sin, including person vs God, person vs self, person vs others, Person vs Nature, and group vs group. Stories like Cain and Abel and the Tower of Babel illustrate consequences.
    • Other Stories: Lorax (environmental tale), Seasons of Gray (betrayal, imprisonment, facing judgment). Caesar Augustus ordered a census of the Roman world, requiring everyone to register in their hometowns. Joseph travels from Nazareth to Bethlehem with Mary. Mary gives birth, and Jesus is placed in a manger. Wise men follow a star to Jerusalem, identifying Jesus as king. King Herod is threatened, orders a massacre of male children. After Herod's death, Joseph and family move to Nazareth. Both Luke and Matthew give accounts of the birth.
