Submission

Tonight we explored the Muslim faith.  As we spoke about the five pillars, the theme that kept coming up is the role of trust in submitting one's life and will.  Chapter 6 of Three Cups of Tea ends with Greg Mortenson participating in the prayer life of his acquaintances in Rawalpindi.  In class we listened to the call to prayer and wondered.



After sharing what each group learned about Islam, we turned to writing about trust. The question for the night was the following: Who do you trust? I look forward to these paragraphs and will have them back to you by our next class.
