7 Things You Should Never Say in a Paper


Funny moments while grading student papers:

Who wrote that?
"Paul says in James 1:22..." 

The circular sentence...
"When a person is engaged in spiritual formation, what they do will not be contrary to what they are engaged in." 
Oh really?
"Jesus himself is telling us if you have faith you can do so many things and more.
The Glow-in-the-Dark Christian
"As a person engaged internally in spiritual formation, it should radiate from within." 
The Hipster Christian
"External actions are things like going to church, attending a bible study, or talking to someone about what Christ has done for you over a cup of coffee." 
What does God do?
"God provides provision for his followers."
Answering the prompt: "Make a plan to promote your spiritual formation in the next 6 months."
"I personally don't think a 'six month plan' is really a good idea."
