APOL 220
APOLOGETIC BACKGROUND ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
At the start of this journey into the world of apologetics, you are in a unique position. Not just in
this class, mind you (although that may be a privilege for some), but as an image-bearer with
immeasurable worth you have your own unique history, thoughts, reactions, emotions, ideas, and
insights that you bring to the apologetic conversation. Your own background and experience –
limited though it may be for now – is an asset and a gift to the Cross-shaped community seeking
to understand and contend for the gospel of Jesus Christ. To foster that posture of listening to and
learning from one another, you must begin by reflecting on where you have come from and
where you are right now in your apologetic journey, so that you may begin to move forward into
a new stage of discernment and understanding. To be used by God as a good apologist who is
thoroughly shaped by the Cross, introspection and honesty must be guiding principles at the start
of and throughout your course of study.
INSTRUCTIONS
Describe your background of apologetics as you begin this course. What have been your
conceptions of apologetics (both positive and/or negative)? Have you previously studied
apologetics? If so, explain the chief motivators for and the benefits of your study. If you have not
studied apologetics in the past, how do you think studying it now could prove helpful? What do
you hope to gain from this study? Guidelines to follow include:
Paper length of approximately 400 – 500 words (not including title and bibliography
pages) submitted in a Word document
Turabian format (review the Sample Paper for a great guide)
At least three (3) citations from scholarly/academic sources, in addition to citations from
Apologetics at the Cross and the Bible, for a minimum of five (5) references
Acceptable sources include scholarly journals, books, articles, and other published works;
videos, blogs, and the like can be referenced but should not make up the main (or only)
source of your research
o Try to find material that supports what you are saying and/or material that has
helped improve (or not improve) your views on apologetics
o Avoid .com websites or other sources whose content origins cannot be verified
You are also encouraged to view the Writing Style Guide located in the Student Responsibilities
tab of the Course Overview. Once you access the Student Responsibilities area, scroll down to

MLA, or Turabian) required in formulating your assignment.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
