Specifically, you will choose one of the following options for your essay: Apply the Biblical worldview to a contemporary social issue or problem. Examples include divorce, abortion, poverty, corruption, sexual orientation, promiscuity, addictions, etc. Evaluate and critique an alternate worldview through the Biblical worldview. Examples of alternate worldviews include materialism, nihilism, relativism, post-modernity, socialism, secularism, etc. You do not need to do outside research for this essay, but you must use the following two sources: Christian Worldview Development. Hans M. Weerstra. International Journal of Frontier Missions, Vol 14:1 Jan-March 1997. Christian Worldview Development: Part II. Hans M. Weerstra. International Journal of Frontier Missions, Vol 14:2 Apr-June 1997.

You may also use your two textbooks as sources, and, of course, you should also use the Bible. The sources (used for ideas, as well as for direct quotes) must be cited properly, according to the appropriate style manual.
