Anger is the second stage where one is filled with great anger over the loss. In the third stage being bargaining, one tries to negotiate with God or other supreme ...

“Jesus said to him, ‘I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”1 The words of Jesus in the Gospel of John seem simple enough, but provide a foundation for the Lutheran faith and have been the subject of controversy for hundreds of years.

Faulkner remains one of America’s iconic writers still studied in higher education today for his style of writing engaging the reader in his characters.
