5-2 Discussion: Reflecting on Your Decision-Making Style

  

An important step in making better decisions is learning about yourself and acknowledging bad decisions you have made. While you shouldn’t dwell on past mistakes, you can learn significant lessons from unsuccessful experiences. Effective leaders are not afraid to take responsibility for plans that didn’t work out and take steps to make things better.

In this discussion, think about a time you have made a poor decision for a group. Think about a decision you have made that impacted your family, colleagues, friends, or community. In your initial post, address the following:

  • What was      the context and decision you made?
  • What was      your decision-making style?
  • What went      wrong?

Discuss christian story of creation

/in /by

Hi, I am looking for someone to write an article on the christian story of creation Paper must be at least 1250 words. Please, no plagiarized work! The Christian story of creation clearly states that in the beginning there was God who created the heavens and the earth. God existed as the Trinity. God the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The earth was engulfed by darkness and thus when God created light. he saw it was good whereby he separated the light from the darkness. The light he termed as day and the darkness at night. This happened on the first day of creation. On the second day, God separated heaven and earth and then evening and morning were created. The myth further continues until the sixth day when a man was created. On the third day, the land and sea were separated. The water was gathered in one place. In addition, vegetations were created and were planted on the very same day. On the fourth day, the moon and the sun were created. Since the sun was the greater light, it was made to rule the day while the moon as the lesser light to rule the night (American Bible Society 2014).
