Blog Entry #4

During this past week I have been reading from a book by Rick Riodan called The Titan's Curse. It is the third book in the Percy Jackson series and all that has led up to it has been amazing. Although, a lot of what is said in the books does not correspond with my Christian beliefs. The whole series goes along with the idea of the Greek gods, (lower case g) and how they have a kid with a mortal. This child is called a half blood. Now, I obviously belief that Jesus went to cross to die for our sins. This series believes otherwise. The characters have a parent who they pray to and receive gifts from. The Big Three are the main gods in the book. Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades make these gods. The main character, Percy Jackson, is a son of Poseidon. In the book all these gods and magical myths are true. In real life however, we don't believe in such things. There is one true God whom we love and adore. His name is Jesus Christ.

Amount of time I read this week: 125 minutes
