Next, Sweeney’s inclusive approach provides the reader not only with the history of the more famed evangelicals, but also acknowledges the influences Pentecostals, charismatics, women and black leaders of the movement. Additionally, he is not afraid to highlight many of the shortcomings within the movement.

It’s a known fact that kids aren’t to be trusted, they are young, and foolish, labeled too immature to know better. There are many sides to be considered when dealing with the severity of choosing the correct punishment for teenage offenders.

In Correction One’s May 27, 2017 article, “Federal judge tosses out life sentences for DC sniper” written by Matthew Barakat, explains judge’s final call Lee Boyd Malvo and that he was entitled to a new sentence as Malvo was only 17 when he was arrested in 2002. Malvo murdered 10 people and injured over a dozen, but his age and immaturity say it is unethical to waste away life in prison. Many agree that a guaranteed lifetime rotting in a cell is beyond devastating for a young criminal condemned to an empty life of solitude, but 10 lives were stolen, immaturity is not excusable.
According to Buckser (1992), the term “lynching” was derived from a Revolutionary War Virginia militia colonel, Charles Lynch. Lynch, at this time, came up with an “unofficial justice system” that punished suspected criminals and thieves through whippings; this later became known as “Lynch’s law”. He also mentions that during the eighteenth and nineteenth century, writers used a form of public humiliation known as charivari (12).

The person I chose for my project was Cole Sundt. The reason I chose him for my project was because of my close relationship with his dad. During football season I was very close to Coach Sundt and would always talk to him before and after practice. My family grew up knowing his family but I wasn't close with Cole really. It wasn’t up until football that me and Cole started to talk a little. I have always kind of knew him in a sense that i see him hanging with my cousins but I've never been close with him. I choose Cole because I feel like i can connect with him very well considering we have a lot of mutual friends and i have a lot of family members close with him and his family. This made me want to choose him as my person for the project.
This paper is an attempt to do the impossible. In a handful of pages, I will dig into the Bible to build a theology of leadership, look at history to see important influences on the pastoral vocation, and build a personal structure for my call to the pastorate.
