The cone of learning says that we remember 10 percent of what we read, 20 percent of what we hear, 30 percent of what we see, 50 percent of what we see and hear, 75 percent of what we see, hear and talk about, and 90 percent what we see, hear, talk about and do. The main message from these statistics is that the more a child can interact with all of his senses, the more apt he is to retain what he has been taught...(According to Deuteronomy 6:6-9) God warned the Israelites to internalize His teaching so He presented His word, stated His goal, and then provided for each learner's style. He used a variety of methods to motivate.

INSTRUCTIONS

To prepare the cake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line the bottom of a
9-inch cake pan with parchment paper and set aside.
Put the unsweetened chocolate and butter in a metal bowl and place it in
the top of a double boiler over slowly simmering water until the chocolate
is melted. Place the sugar and eggs in the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer and
whip on high speed for about 5 minutes, or until a pale lemony color and
thick. Decrease the speed to medium and slowly add the melted chocolate
mixture. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the vanilla. Gradually
add the flour, mixing just until the batter comes together. Remove the bowl
from the mixer and set aside for about 5 minutes to let the batter cool
slightly.
Fold the chopped bittersweet chocolate, white chocolate, and pecans into
the batter and pour the batter into the prepared pan. Place the pan in the
oven and bake until a knife inserted in the center of the cake comes out
clean, 30 to35 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and cool in the pan
for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, whip the cream to soft peaks.
To remove the cake from the pan, run a knife around the inside edge of the
pan, then invert the cake onto a platter. Cut into individual portions and
serve warm or at room temperature with the whipped cream or vanilla ice
cream, and top with the berries.

A Message from our Provider:

“A Man’s Man is a Godly Man!”

The nature and depth of human pride are illuminated by comparing boasting to self-pity. Both are manifestations of pride. Boasting is the response of pride to success. Self-pity is the response of pride to suffering. Boasting says, 'I deserve admiration because I have achieved so much.' Self-pity says, 'I deserve admiration because I have suffered so much.' Boasting is the voice of pride in the heart of the strong. Self-pity is the voice of pride in the heart of the weak. Boasting sounds self-sufficient. Self-pity sounds self-sacrificing. The reason self-pity does not look like pride is that it appears to be so needy. But the need arises from a wounded ego. It doesn't come from a sense of unworthiness, but from a sense of unrecognized worthiness. It is the response of unapplauded pride. Christian Hedonism severs the root of self-pity. People don't feel self-pity when suffering is accepted for the sake of joy.
