Narative Reading Response

1)Write a bit about how these essays differ from the writing you are used to writing/reading. How do they use a different structure, tone, techniques, etc?

2) Take one of the essays and write a few sentences about the purpose and audience for the essay. What are they and how do you know? 

These essays were much more relaxed and heartfelt from what we have been writing and what we have all written in the past. They included quotes and personal information that usually one would not encounter in scholarly writing. They were still trying to be informative but they were doing it through telling a story making the message much more memorable.

"Path's Changing" was intended to express that there is a path where you can be close to God but not have him rule your daily life. I would say this is directed to teenagers going through changes who have always had God be a big influence in their lives. I understood how a relationship seemed like the best thing in the world and appeared to make everything look like it had an easy answer.
