In this fourth journal entry, I ask you to reflect on a change in the course with this module. In this module, I have asked you to state in posts to the class more about your personal sense of purpose and calling. I have asked you to state how the readings might apply to you personally. What is your reaction to the increasingly personal nature of the discussion. Is it difficult? Does it make you uncomfortable? Or do you find it helpful and challenging, no matter your religious practice?
Following your reflective writing, I ask you to write one additional paragraph about how your online experience is going so far. Is there anything I can do to help you? Do you have questions about the online environment or the activities of the module
