Answer 1

>>What does religious faith mean to you in your lived experience?

My faith gives meaning to my lived experience. I think your question is backwards.

>>How does your life’s work challenge the quality of your faith?

I bring my faith into my life’s work. No matter what it is, whenever we bring Christ to the workplace, that work is sanctified. No area of our lives is off-limits to the Gospel. I use words only when necessary.

>>What values do you wish to pass on to the next generation?

The Gospel of God’s love for each person, the Gospel of the dignity of each human being, and the Gospel of Life. It is an indivisible Gospel.

>>Do you feel that in this nuclear-environmental age, more is asked of you as a believing person?

I think all of your questions can be answered in here:

Answer 2

I am a Catholic so here is my answer:
1. My faith means everything to me in my life. My whole life is my walk with Christ. It has been my strength and my refuge. It brings me peace and joy. Without it I would not have had the strength to be alive right now.
2. My life's work is nursing in a nursing home so that too is an extension of my faith. I try to do everything for my patients as if I were doing it for Christ. This is what He taught. My job gives me the challenge of meeting Christs needs in the needs of the elderly.
3. I wish to pass on my faith, my love for God and mankind, and my sense of compassion and thirst for peace and knowledge. Especially to my own children.
4. I would say that yes I feel this age asks much of me but I cannot say that it is more or less than that asked of others in their lifetimes as their lives were filled with discord and challenges too. I have never as yet had to risk losing my life for my faith like some.
Peace Be With You,
Debra

Answer 3

Im a catholic and this is my statement of belief.

First of all It is not my religious faith that means anything to me but my belief in God and Jesus Christ. I believe that it is not through my adherence to my catholic heritage that would bring salvation to my soul. I search for God who pervades through all religions. So I'll say what my faith in God and Jesus means to me.I know the difference between how to be with a God and how to be without Him. Before I didnt have a hope but now no matter what happens I am always conquered by the belief that there is a God who will be there for me and will never abandon me. and this gives the strength to live on.. Everyday is a struggle for me I struggle so that i'll be more and more like what He wishes me to be..
I value truthfulness in every word and deed and i will pass this on to future generations, and also I believe that God is something that is not to be taught but have to find out by oneself. So i would never force any concepts about Him to the future generations but will give them complete freedom to have a first hand experience of Him.
I strongly believe that everyone has a call to reachout to the less previleged of the world. I be;ieve its se;fishness to limit ones services to the smaller cirle of ones family. Love is th rule that Jesus gave us and we are supposed to spread it to the ends of the earth.And im preparing myself to reachout to the world.

Answer 4

Ain't a catholic but I am putting in my 2 cents. I think that if you're a christian in general, or a religious man, there's more pressure to you to do good in this world, where there is more temptation to do bad. Your eye will see things that will tempt you, and the seduction to sin is overwhelming. It is so overwhelming that I succumbed to it, and many like me.

Answer 5

How are others' values valuable to you. How about sharing your values with us to.
