Diving into the Heart of Child Abuse

Senior Thesis Statement: 
We must dive into the heart of child abuse and understand where it is coming from.

Brief Description of Senior Thesis: 
In order to discover the heart of the abuser, people must open their eyes to the statistics of abuse victims and realize that the governmental laws put in place are not working, then they will be able to discover that the only solution to stopping child abuse is in accepting Jesus and aligning their priorities to His so they might nurture and love children for whom they have responsibility.

What advice or encouragement would you give to younger students at Westminster?
If you do poorly on something like a project or a test, don’t beat yourself up about it, but learn from your mistakes and figure out how you can improve.

Please share a funny memory or highlight from your time at Westminster:
One of my favorite experiences at Westminster was in 8th grade when our class all got together and brought snacks to have a feast in Mr. Davis’ Bible class.

Favorite Bible Verse: 
“Out of the north he comes in golden splendor; God comes in awesome majesty. The Almighty is beyond our reach and exalted in power; in his justice and great righteousness, he does not oppress. Therefore, people revere him, for does he not have regard for all the wise in heart?” (Job 37:22-24).

Prayer Request:  Please pray for me as I go off to college so that I may have a successful and fulfilling career.
