The Reformation can be divided four spheres of issues: Epistemology, Ecclesiology, Liturgy, and Soteriology. Each of these issues came with different responses from three primary groups, the Catholic Church, the Reformers, and the Radical Reformers. The Reformation impacted Christianity in a major way, and we can still see the effects of it today within what we can loosely call these three sub-traditions.

Today in our modern world we can easily get caught up living a life based on comparisons. What I mean by this is we often fall into the trap of judging our abilities and even our worth as a person by what other people achieve.

Joy is a sense of being at peace, of being content. It is possessing the knowledge that no matter how bad the world may be, in the end all will be well. Joy is having satisfaction that transcends the material world.

Our society loves nostalgia. We can all think of movies, music, or video games that we used to play. With them arise certain feelings and memories.

Materialism is very much a prevalent issue in our society. We all live in a consumerist, commercialised, world that is always pushing us to build up the best "collection" of material possessions, power, and wealth we can.
