Abstractionism
Abstractionism emerged in the late 19th/early 20th centuries led by artists like Kandinsky, Malevich, and Mondrian who moved away from realistic representations towards geometric shapes and colors to represent emotions/ideas rather than physical objects. Key movements included Suprematism founded by Malevich using basic shapes without context, and De Stijl founded by Mondrian using only primary colors and horizontal and vertical lines. Mondrian's style evolved from Cubism into his signature grid-based geometric compositions divided by black lines and primary colors which came to define geometric abstractionism.
Seamus Heaney
Seamus Heaney was a Roman Catholic poet born in Northern Ireland in 1939. He published his first book of poems in 1966 and went on to receive the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1995.

His poem "Punishment" was inspired by the discovery of a bog body in Ireland and references ritualized violence both in Iron Age cultures and 20th century Northern Ireland. The poem generates complex questions about collective violence, guilt, and the poet's own stance.

God will judge all people for their deeds, both good and evil. While judgment is a biblical theme, it is intricately connected to salvation and grace. The document examines examples from Genesis of how God extended grace even in contexts of judgment, such as in the Garden of Eden after the Fall and during the Flood story. Judgment is a reflection of God's justice, but His grace is also revealed from the beginning for those who accept it. Both judgment and grace are necessary to understand the fullness of Scripture.
