GMCM 518: Project 1b - The Trinity Study Project 1b: The Trinity Study Page 1 of 2 Introduction: The purpose of this assignment is to assess your knowledge of the Trinity and whether your communication of that knowledge is appealing, relevant, and contextual. The student is to design a teaching guide on the Trinity relevant to his/her ministry context. Directions: There are three parts to the assignment. In Part 1 (Content), you will write about your knowledge of the Trinity. Questions have been provided to you so that your discussion in Part 1 is as exhaustive as possible. Your presentation of Part 1 should be in essay format. Do not list the questions and answers, as that is not essay format. It is highly likely, that you will not include all of the content in this section in your delivery of your study. All of the content is necessary here, however, so as to assess your synthesis of the information learned. In Part 2 (Audience), you will discuss some of the characteristics of the audience to whom you will deliver your study. The purpose of part 2 is for you to be cognizant of those who will receive your study and to encourage you to design the presentation and delivery so that it's attainable, appealing and applicable to them. The content of Part 2 should be briefly discussed in one paragraph. In Part 3 (Presentation and Delivery) you will prepare the presentation (content and delivery) of your study. Suggestions have been provided to you on how to enhance your presentation. Be certain to make your lesson engaging. You are free to decide the content to be included in your presentation to your ministry audience and the number of lessons it will take to deliver it.
