Rural life

Rural life is a lot better than city life because in the city there is all the people and cars and ... If you like it layed back, more peaceful then rural... What Are The Comparison

better for me at different stages in my life.

better for me at different stages in my life - I grew up in London and there was loads to do and also vast parks nearby .

When I had small children I lived in the country and they got fresh air and a gentle pace of life when they were a bit older we moved to a small town and then as teenagers we lived in Liverpool. Now I am back in the country again as I am getting older and am really appreciating once again the pace of life the beauty and fresh air - less traffic.

I don't think its better just different - Countrylife revolves around seasons city life around whats on.

Country life is very conservative city life is more encompassing of difference. More gossip in the country methinks too. Social relations are different. I think especially an overcrowded city like London people work hard to keep their personal space. Also city dwellers more concerned about self-image.Horses for courses!

Better for what? Each has it's points both good and bad. I have lived many years in the big city, in a small town and I now live in the sticks of Northern California. I grew up in a small, college town, Chico CA, then I lived in San Jose for a year , then 12 years in Berkeley and Oakland and the last 23 years I have spent on top of a mountain ridge in rural Northern CA. I loved being in each place a lot of the time and when I became tired of it I moved on to a place I felt better in. The city is a place to learn about the world real fast, and the country is a good place to learn about yourself over a long period of time.

My personal opinion

Is city life better than country life?

Some people argue that city life is better than country life. However, the authenticity of this statement is dubious. The interpretation of this statement maybe entirely biased depending on the individual. Not everyone suited to the city life and not everyone has the desire to reside permanently in the countryside. You may prefer to be better suited to one type of lifestyle than that of another. Even so, one cannot possibly make a general claim that city life is better than country life. It is really ones perspective whether city life is better than country life. Everyone has unique differences and requirements. Therefore, the better life would have to be the lifestyle that caters for ones necessities.

One would believe that city life is better than country life if the ci

ty life provides ones desires. One may prefer the diverse entertainment sources that are attainable in the city. There are many diverse cultural differences one will experience living in the city. Such as the many various restaurants, nightclubs, major shopping centres, and the cinemas that are accessible in the city.

Moreover, education is easier to obtain in the city because the schools and universities are within reasonable proximity to ones residential area. Transport is not difficult to access. Thus, health facilities and community services are in availability. As a result, individuals are able to live comfortable and healthy lives living in the city.

city life better then village life

It is diffucult to say wether village life is better or the townlife some like the village life while other the city life. Our government is trying to improve the condition of the villages under its develpment schemea

village life

But there are disaduantages also in the village. The roads are not good there is not light in the road at night. The facilities of schools are very poor there are hardly any libraries people cannot learn much about the world. The facilitiea regarding transport is poor and primitive for these reasons their ideas are narrow. life and property are narrow.

village life

People residing in villages are said to have been enjoying village-life. Some people say that village are made by God, but towns are made by men. At first there were only villages and not towns. The village life is very simple and peaceful.We enjoy there many beautiful flowers we see the birds singing on the tress.we can enjoy fresh and pure air.We can get fresh fruits and vegetables. We can enjoy fresh get pure milk and ghee.All these things are cheap in the village-life people can live in the village with a small income. Their wants are few. The peole in the village know one another hence one helps ones neighbours in times of need danger and difficult.

Bethel Bible Village Names New Executive Director

Charles S. “Chuck” Baker

The Board of Trustees names Charles S. “Chuck” Baker as Bethel’s fourth executive director. Mr. Baker will assume his role in January.

Bethel Bible Village, a home for children of families in crisis, had its beginning on Signal Mountain in 1954 moving to Hixson in 1969. Ike Keay was named the first executive director followed by Bob McFarland and most recently Myron Wilkins.

Bethel’s mission is to provide safe, nurturing and Christ-centered homes for children of families in crisis, and equip and inspire them to live productive Christian lives.

The following responses describe Baker’s personal spiritual journey and calling to Bethel Bible Village.

Q: How did you first come to know the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior?

I grew up in a Christian home and learned the truths of God’s Word at an early age. I placed my faith in Christ and trusted Him to be my Savior and Lord as a young boy in a revival service at First Baptist Church in Seaford, Delaware. My life was forever changed at that moment through the redemptive power of Jesus Christ.

Q: Tell us about your background, family, and interests.

Originally from Delaware, my Dad (now retired from DuPont) was transferred to Chattanooga when I was in the 9th grade. I graduated from Red Bank High School in 1971 and Carson Newman College in 1975 with a BA degree in Math. I met my wife Cynthia in high school. We will celebrate 36 years of marriage in December. We have one son, Jonathan, a graduate of McCallie School and Auburn University. Jonathan and his wife Amy both work for Unum…we are proud of them both. I enjoy reading, golf, spending time at the lake, and studying God’s Word as I prepare each week to teach a Sunday School class at Hixson First Baptist. I also enjoy college football, attending most Auburn home games (War Eagle!).

Q: You have spent 35 years in business…tell us about your background.

My career, which spans across three companies and five cities, began in 1975 with Provident Life and Accident Insurance Company. I moved to Memphis in 1980 to work for First Tennessee Bank and, in 1982, God provided an opportunity for me to join AT&T in Knoxville. In subsequent years with AT&T, I was transferred to Kingsport and Nashville. I returned to Chattanooga and Provident (now Unum) in 1989 and will complete almost 22 years of service at the end of this year. I have held several different senior operational management positions with Unum including my current position of Vice President, Voluntary Benefits Client Services. I have truly been blessed during my business career. I can clearly see God’s sovereign work in every career move to prepare me for my call to Bethel.

Q: You refer to this as a “call” to Bethel…tell us a little about your journey.

The journey started about five years ago when God began to stir my heart about life after business…what I refer to as the second half of my life. I strongly sensed that God would one day change my focus and direction and call me to some type of ministry, but was not sure where, how, or when. I’ve served on the Bethel Board for four years. In December, 2009, the Board asked me to lead the search committee to find a new Executive Director. After a six-month, nationwide search with over 200 resumes submitted for the position, God had a different plan for Bethel and for my life. Concurrent with the search process, God was stirring my heart and preparing me for His “call”. Through an incredible series of God-ordained events, the search committee asked me to consider the Executive Director position. After seeking God’s direction through prayer, His Word, and counsel from my spiritual mentors, I surrendered to God’s plan and accepted the call. Although not the place or timing that I expected, God worked through our search committee in a special way to confirm His direction and will for my life. I plan to retire from Unum on December 31st and begin my new responsibilities at Bethel on January 1st.

Q: What excites you most about becoming part of the ministry at Bethel?

I’m excited about this change of direction in my life and the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children. I’m excited to be active in a ministry whose mission is to “provide safe, nurturing and Christ-centered homes for children of families in crisis.” For over 56 years, God has blessed Bethel and accomplished great things through the Board and staff, but I believe greater things are still to come and I’m excited to be part of God’s future plans for the ministry. Finally, I’m excited to be part of the Bethel “family”…to work with our staff, Board, volunteers, and partners to see “children transformed by the redemptive power of Jesus Christ and empowered to fulfill all of their God-given potential.”

Village Life

Medieval villages consisted of a population comprised of mostly of farmers. Houses, barns sheds, and animal pens clustered around the center of the village, which was surrounded by plowed fields and pastures. Medieval society depended on the village for protection and a majority of people during these centuries called a village home. Most were born, toiled, married, had children and later died within the village, rarely venturing beyond its boundaries.

Common enterprise was the key to a village's survival. Some villages were temporary, and the society would move on if the land proved infertile or weather made life too difficult. Other villages continued to exist for centuries. Every village had a lord, even if he didn't make it his permanent residence, and after the 1100's castles often dominated the village landscape. Medieval Europeans may have been unclear of their country's boundaries, but they knew every stone, tree, road and stream of their village. Neighboring villages would parley to set boundaries that would be set out in village charters.

Medieval peasants were either classified as free men or as "villeins," those who owed heavy labor service to a lord, were bound to the land, and subject to feudal dues. Village life was busy for both classes, and for women as well as men. Much of this harsh life was lived outdoors, wearing simple dress and subsisting on a meager diet.

Village life would change from outside influences with market pressures and new landlords. As the centuries passed, more and more found themselves drawn to larger cities. Yet modern Europe owes much to these early medieval villages.
