An appreciation for the relationship between faith and reason and an ability to formulate an approach to this relationship that will serve in ministry. 4. Knowledge of some of the key figures in the field of apologetics, both from the history of the church and from the present. 5. An ability to struggle with a defense of some of the major theological positions of Christianity and some of the major difficulties to the faith raised by those who object to Christianity. 6.

The method for this exam will be to give essay questions which will be opportunities for the student to display his knowledge and analysis of class lectures and discussion.

(20%) $ Writing assignments (choose one option 40% of final grade): Option 1: Two Book Reviews one of Zacharias, Can Man Live Without God and the other of Lewis, Mere Christianity (5-7 pages each). Reviews should: 1) summarize the material succinctly, 2) include analysis of the ideas and themes of the book, and 3) assess the book s strengths and weaknesses, and 4) comment on the value of the book. Option 2: Research paper (12-15 pages) over topic chosen by student (with professor s approval) using Turabian form. A minimum of 10 resources should be used and reflected in the bibliography with at least 2 being journal articles. Please have a topic to me by the fourth week of class and a preliminary bibliography by the seventh week. Note: please do not submit a paper from a previous course! General writing instructions (for book reviews or research paper): The papers will be graded according to form (Turabian), style (can professor understand your writing and are your thoughts clear and concise), content (have you fully read and comprehended the concepts in the book [or your topic if research paper]), and analysis (have you written clearly your own critical view of the book s [or topic s] content and value). Plagiarism will not be tolerated! In writing a paper, when you use someone else s words or thoughts and do not attribute them to the original author, you are essentially claiming that these words or thoughts are your own. This is plagiarism. Therefore, always cite quotations and any other specific information or ideas from other authors. General biographical or English dictionary information is considered common knowledge and need not be cited. Class Procedures and Participation: All writing assignments (excluding exam essays) should conform to Turabian, 8 th Edition. Students should utilize the MABTS Turabian Tutor for quick access to key issues concerning style and format. Written work, including exam essays (which are not subject to Turabian), may be submitted to the instructor electronically via . Attendance: Attendance is required for online classes just as for regular classes. Attendance will be determined by students accessing online materials, participating in forums and submitting assignments. Students have a maximum of nine absences during the course term.
3 Proctors: Proctoring of exams is required. The mid-term and final examinations must be proctored. The proctor may not be a family member or fellow student. The exams in this course are open-book exams (using your textbooks and notes from class, not the internet or other outside sources). Exams will be posted on the class website. Please have completed exams (indicating your compliance with the above instructions concerning open-book exams) sent to the professor via by your proctors. Notify the professor early in the semester as to the name and of the proctor. Class Forums: Mandatory participation in the class online discussion, responding to the professor s lessons, instructions, and questions posted in the online class schedule each week. This will give opportunity for interaction with professor and other classmates on the subject material for the course. The student will be expected to have completed that week s reading requirement and demonstrate knowledge of its contents through his posted comments. A missed forum will be counted as an absence. Practical Missions: Students are required to participate in practical missions while taking online courses. Students are also required to participate in Report Hour. A virtual Report Hour is posted online in each week s assignment block. Even if students participate in the regular report hour on campus, they must also use the virtual report hour forum each week. If no witness has occurred, the student will log in and report present. Contacting Professor: Please the professor with any questions or concerns. If you need to call and cannot reach Dr. McDill please leave a message and the professor will call back or respond via . Late Work: Assignments which are turned in late will incur a deduction of two points for each day late. The student is responsible for contacting the professor regarding assignments which will be late, otherwise the professor will assume the student does not plan to submit those assignments. Disclaimer: The professor reserves the right to make any necessary changes to the information provided in this syllabus during the term. Grading Scale: Grade point averages are determined on a 12-point grading system.
