Review:

I got good news/I received good news

Soul searching:  looking for your true self/ trying to find yourself.

Denomination:  the type of church/ a kind of church.

  • Baptist
  • Presbyterian
  • Lutheran
  • Methodist

Non-denominational (non- dee – nom – in – ay – shun – al):  a church that doesn’t belong to a specific group.

Preach – to give lessons, normally religious lessons

To practice what you preach means to follow your own teachings. Someone who does not practice what he/she preaches s a hypocrite (伪善者).

  • Do what you tell other people to do.

Storytelling:

 

Soul searching, denomination, non-denominational, preach

Lately I often preach lessons to progress my soul searching.  Sometimes I go to a Baptist denomination church to pray something like health and my family and friends.   However most of churches are non-denominational.

Lately I often preach lessons to progress my soul searching.  Sometimes I go to a Baptist denomination church to pray about something like my health, and my family and friends.   However, most churches are non-denominational. Most churches want to earn more money from people, they often give lessons to Christians and then ask them to give money to them and tell them the more money you give them, the more blessings you can receive.
