Principles to glean meaningful content

Reading and reflecting on the ideas of others is one of the principal methods of learning important concepts found in this academic sub-discipline. A variety of topics will be covered that will introduce you to valuable concepts. By articulating the personal, academic, and biblical values of the learning experience, you will grow in intellectual and spiritual maturity.
You will summarize the main principles of the reading and reflect on these principles to glean meaningful content. This will ensure better understanding of the reading and its relationship to current events. The reflective statements may draw on personal experiences or information from other readings. Critiquing ideas in light of a biblical worldview is encouraged.
