My family has been in America for a number of generations. Over time, the role of religion has taken on a change in my family. Our predominant “religion” is Christianity. As compared to the older generation of my family, “generation X,” my cousins and I have a different outlook on life. My great-aunt is what many would call a “hard-core Christian.” Her outlook is “If you don’t have time for the Lord, you have time for nothing else.” Her weekly routine is Sunday morning service, Tuesday choir rehearsal, Wednesday night Bible Study, Thursday deacon board meeting, and so on. As a child, I was constantly “preached to” by her. She would always chastise me in the ways of the Lord. Always quoting scriptures, saying things like, “…you know the Lord is your Shepherd…you can do all things through Christ
