 Right so welcome back So today in this class we will go through all the research topics Okay, that you have submitted and also fine-tuned that okay, so I didn't see the one-page submission except for a few people okay, that is I Think Divya has submitted John Paul Lubega Paul Paul evo to part from that I've not received from the other so maybe you can take the day to day by end of day Before end of day you can submit it the same place You know where you see the classwork section and under submissions the search topics right so you could Go there upload your word document and it'll be there right so So just wanted to give time to today and this evening but apart from that I just want us to go through the research topics and Let me just share the screen and kind of fine-tuned that okay, so even as we talk about it we can You can just fine-tune that Okay, what do you see on screen are you able to see the The Google sheet yeah, okay fine Okay, good. So Yeah, so thank you. I think there are about 12 13 people who have submitted and How many do we have in class? Okay, we have about 16 students How one is a teaching assistant so the book 15 out of 15 13 have submitted okay Okay Okay, so Yeah, so what we need to do is go through this and and see if What we need to do to fine-tune the topic so we'll just finalize it right today and after this there won't be any You know changes to it. Okay, so we'll just start with Lyndon is Lyndon in class We check London London is not there Okay, jeffina is jeffina in class Is she in there but not there? Okay, so jeffina. So jeffina's topic is on gospel to the physically abused. Okay, so research topic Typically you all you just mentioned what you want to do right, so so you can say Measuring the effectiveness of the gospel That is shared to the physically abused or You know something on those lines right so so when I look at the description the search topic description So this is what you said like to do the research to explore how the gospel is being Reached to the abused and what are better ways which means you're saying, okay, what is an effective way? In which it can be preached and also to help them grow in Christ, right? So basically it's a Outreach to the physically abused so so the question would be you know, will the physical abuse be male female children old older folks Right so so you need to define that so if you're saying physically abused then Obviously the question would be if and if your research is only one part of it then then which means that It's left out the others other parts. So which means it's it'll be taken as a research not complete Right, but whereas if you thought if the topic says okay physically abused between the age of so and so I mean this and this and if it's men we mentioned them or You know something like that So if you mentioned that then we would say, okay, this is the research and your work will also reflect that and you would say, okay Otherwise if it's this topic, no It's it doesn't say What the research of about right so so So can you let me know so I can type it Okay, take some time to think about it So we can finalize it right Okay Okay, then is Divya online Yes, okay, so your topic is Like a brief review or brief study of five missionaries. So you can say a five missionaries Okay, and So you can change it And you know, maybe if you have a description Those are among the great cloud of witnesses in the sense you're saying that they've already already gone on to be with the Lord Right. So anything particular that you want to mention about okay study of great these five missionaries and What is it that you want to bring out through the research? Wanted summary. Yeah, I've seen that I've gone through that. So let me just check that Um, it's basically I have listed out I think five or six missionaries in that Yeah, and I wanted to go through like what let them do You know to do that Great work that they been called to do the obedience to the calling and the impact they had And how did they like overcome the risks they faced and What do the lights of the missionary they teach us? So I'm trying to you know, find out what is special about them, right? What made them Do such great Feeds for God. Yeah, okay. Okay. So you have about six missionaries here Amy Carmichael George Miller Samuel Morris. I just got a correct and boom Dwight DL moody right six are there and So you're going to track maybe a probably something about their Beginning where were they born some history where how family history? Formative years what really led them to Christ and how they started the ministry where they did it The scope of their ministry to whom did they minister, right and also the and also these questions, right? What were the challenges in which they the circumstances in which they ministered etc? and Also assess did they you know fully fulfill the impact Fully fulfill the call that God had for them in your understanding What are the learnings? You know so and also it'd be good if you know, what is the impact in the present day? Yeah, okay, okay. Yeah, so in the present day in the modern scenario, what is the impact of their ministry if at all? Has it had any impact in today's? Church maybe in the very region that they ministered or elsewhere Their life and ministry has it impacted in any way and I think if you mentioned that It'll it'll be good So these are suggestions and I think it'll kind of make it complete and also you can add to it So topic you can probably Change it, you know accordingly you can mention, you know instead of saying stories you can say a study of six missionaries and their impact And they're a study of six missionaries on their life and impact. I'm sorry the ministry and their impact In those days and also, I'm sorry. I'm just paraphrasing a bit And those days and also in modern times the impact in modern times something on those lines It's something that conveys that would the hell Yeah, so I'm trying to Probably five maybe Something that I would be able to do the second I just kept like a list because I just wanted to choose Yeah, so Will fight if I Yeah, if I be fine if I will be okay, but you need to take into consideration that it's a Like it's a research paper So you need to go into depths of details You know Like a normal assignment Which is a go beyond that, you know, just you know, so something that makes it Qualify as a research paper would be the you know the depth of details Something that will distinguish it from just a superficial study of you know life and life in history of the person So that aspect if you bring it in That'll be nice Okay Can you elaborate on that? Yeah, so so when we say, you know when we normally study about the life and history We would say where they were born where you know, they're like some of the things that I mentioned But also go into the depths Certain things that which are normally not I don't know easily accessible But because of your research if you're able to bring out Yeah Let's say personal descendants You know if you can trace say, okay, this is a You know, this is the life. This is the family or descendants of you know, so-and-so If it applies, you know, maybe some are single somewhere single, but you know, what what are they doing now? Was their life impacted something on those lines which would give the depth of Research which would qualify as a research paper Okay, right So that's why so so you can avoid the brief study you can say, you know, it's a study of five missionaries their life ministry impact and In an impact to the modern church or something on those lines Yeah Okay. Yeah. Okay. Like for example, you know, you could maybe find ministries that say that You know, this is how they greatly impacted and their whole, you know vision everything is based on You know the impact that this person has had In their lives, right in their ministry. So Maybe they follow the same method and things like that So if you add those That information that data Then it would it would make sense Yeah, yeah, so you can go with five that's fine So maybe end of day you can you know change this tweak this topic So so just think about it. I'm just addressing the whole class also, you know if you put this as a research topic and if you know your finding is You know doesn't fully Satisfy the topic that you mentioned Okay Then you'll have a problem. Okay, so so you need to make sure that you're finding or the research conclusion Fully satisfies that topic. That is why I'm saying that we define the topic so that That's why I'm asked trying to find out. What is the work that you're going to be doing? So that the topic and the work, you know, it it coincides Because of the scope of the topic is too vast and the actual research done is Let's say of five on a scale of one to ten then The research would be deficient The topic would be too big, but the actual work done is too small Doesn't match. So that's why I'm just saying bees as specific as possible, right? Okay, so we have success who's raised to have and Jeffy now. So okay first success You want to say something ask? Morning success. I want to say thank you so much Is it possible for you to post our topics and our email? for us Well, it's there in the Google Sheet success Go go shit. What? Yeah What I'm sharing right now Okay, yeah, so everyone's listed their topics here and Yeah, so you can just go there. You can see what others have done and Yeah Yeah, okay So both the topic I gave If I want to do it between for the teenagers Okay Teenage section Yeah, so it would say that it's for the teenagers Of course when you say teenagers, they're saying 13 to 19, right? Or do you have a different age? Range in mind 13 to 19. Okay, so 13 to 19. So you're saying so So it's basically teens ministry, but within the teens ministry How is it reached to those who are abused so when you say abused You want to generally talk about the physically abused, right? So you're thinking of maybe violence maybe Other things like maybe a sexual violence Okay, so whatever, you know fits in that, right? So so probably you will have to define that I'm just this stating, you know the nature of the search. Maybe we have to define that and also The thing is to find such people Right who would fit that so that you can actually do the study. Okay, so Because you will have to have actual data Say that, you know, if there are people in this age group Who are experiencing, you know, gone through this experience and to find out How was it? I'm sorry. How was the gospel preached to them? Was it effective, etc. So That's the thing Yeah, so it's So when you say this it's it's a bit of a challenging You know challenging topic Challenging from the perspective of, you know, finding out the data because it's People may not be forthcoming in sharing and again, you know, you're subset is In the church, right? So we're saying in the church, how's the gospel preached? So So that's the thing Another way to find out is maybe not the victims themselves But to find out from maybe ministry leaders or church leaders To see, you know, do they have such such a, you know, a group of people whom they are ministering to maybe counsellors And to find out, you know, how do they receive the gospel was it effective or You know things like that Yeah so I Just want to be clarified. So when I say even the physically abused Do you think I have to make it much more detailed because this Like violence, sexual murder, everything comes up. Maybe Even if I look into it, maybe I can't like do every single abuse into this much So you think it's better if I like really say what kind of physical Abuses even in the topic is that Yeah, so that would narrow down Your, you know, this so you can focus to a focus study So like that Yeah Can narrow it down, but I'm just thinking Probably you have a method in mind how to find the information, you know, let's say sample size of 50 to 50 or 60 in order to form a Good conclusion, right? data-based informed conclusion Based on that because I think less than 50 would be very It may not be accurate, right and without data you can't generalize So that's the thing So you think about it Okay, and see Whether you want to do this Is it possible and you've got we've got about you know two months. So we already started February. So Think about it. Let me know. Yeah, okay, so Who else? Lyndon, yeah I was really surprised to see this morning that the description was blank But yeah, thanks. One of the sisters did respond. Actually, I have lost those Description I did not save it on my machine. So I'll have to know we do it. So Excuse for it and this morning I submitted the summary a one-page summary, but it took six minutes past nine o'clock Do it so it still shows missing on it But I would appreciate if you could take them to look into the summary. So it's already been done. Is it you already? Yes, I'm just looking on it. It says missing but Okay, I'm just accessing it So so my my intention of this research is to Or how I would see this is to prepare a sort of a questioner discuss with some of the You know, the the bishops of reverence or pastors or you know, believers, elderly people Representing a certain denomination from people who are from a traditional background to have a strong understanding of I know what they represent and how they see revival from their perspective And Do they support do they anticipate do they encourage or do they have a different opinion on it and what From a denom from their respective denomination standpoint, what differences or hindrances that they see and eventually Combining all and not combining but addressing all these are you know looking at all their Opinions and distances and see if you could support with some if I can support with some Scriptural evidences and provide my feedback or opinion on what could be done So is it a study on revival or is a study on unity well certainly it's around the revival and certainly unity is part of it but it's against Stakeholders here will be the denomination various denominations Okay, so so when you say various denominations Linden again, it will be good if you can see suppose you you saying various denominations and In the study, maybe you you've done three or four denominations that I might ask you what about this fifth denomination? You know Yeah, so it'll be good if you know if you're saying revival, you know, you're you're doing a study on revival and maybe you have to you know kind of Talk about what kind of revival have they had in the past in the denomination if at all and you know why is it not happening now and You know what is so what what you're saying is the in the denomination that there is You say denominational divergence, right? So you're talking about some doctrine doctrinal difference Which is becoming a barrier Right, so I'm not able to fully understand that So is the doctrinal? denominational Another doctrine itself, which is a barrier to revival or What is it? What is it that you want to actually look at? Okay, in my summary I have Defined or no provided even more clarification on divergence. So how I would see it is Yeah There are differences in doctrines among Yeah, sorry to sorry to yeah, sorry to Interrupt I'm just looking at the one-page summary, you know that you've given so you've defined that what? Denominational divergence is meaning examination of differences in belief practice doctrines across diverse denominations and What you want to find out is that? What is what are these differences of beliefs practices doctrines and how it's impacting the unity How it's impacting the unity of the Christian community, that's one that you mentioned and secondly You also mentioned this theological practice and often manifested through distinct. Yeah, okay. Just explain that so So so you're saying okay these beliefs practices customs how they actually divide the Christian community and your go your research is based on Specific to revival see that at the center point of the new place here is a revival And there could be several bottlenecks Respective doctrines with respect to topics, but this is focused on revival So Drinks See revival or approach revival of the date You can actually focus on Yeah, so two things that you're going to be looking at one is unity Second one is revival. Am I right? No, you're going to be focusing on unity Is it Okay, so two things that you're going to be focusing on So two things that you're going to be focusing on is unity and revival, right? No unity and revival Yeah, unity is the word that you use and revival Okay, so yeah, I'll just share that so So which is which is fine Lyndon, so I'm I'm just Okay, you go ahead. Okay Please be specific about what are those denominations that you're going to be studying because obviously you won't be able to study all the denominations Because yeah, so you can specify maybe five or six denominations Also, you need to look into what kind of you know work of the Holy Spirit have they had How did which means how did the denomination start who started it? What what really prompted the start of that denomination? What kind what is the history of it? so it's it's quite a You know a lot of research work, but it can be done and also, you know, what kind of revival have they had You know, what kind of outpouring have they had what kind of you know in the emissary and the challenges, you know How did it impact the unity with the other churches or how did it impact the revival ongoing revival, right? And you will come up with your suggestions Based on the study of God's word Why where is it that they've you know, the customs practices, etc. Beliefs where is it that they went off? So that you know, and you're going to be sharing from God's word and then some practical standpoints from you know Your suggestions and and that's that's a good way to conclude. So yeah, please go ahead but change the title Because the title you left to it's not You know, it's not talking about You know about the research You know the scope of the research so you would have to change the title accordingly, right? Is that okay, Lyndon? I thought and I still think this title supports my research. So Is it okay for you to Now give me one month. So with whatever preparation materials that I can support and if you still think this title does not support my content Yeah, it doesn't support Lyndon because you're saying damn denominational divergence, but Which means it includes all the denominations and you're not going to be studying all the denominations. So it doesn't support the Doesn't support the research If you say some denominations if you say a few denominations or five denominations Five major denominations then the research work would support it But if you're saying denominational divergence Yeah, so that's why I'm just saying, you know Change the title so that it supports what exactly that you're doing you think about it And then maybe you you know by evening if you can change it that'll be great Yeah, but it's a exciting topic exciting topic a lot of you know work that you can do and I'm sure the findings will be very You know exciting as well. So yeah, please go ahead and just change the scope of research based on and let it reflect in the title, right? Thank you very much. I'm excited likewise Right, okay Okay, so Yes, is it who's that success? Yeah, yes Yeah, I want to choose our topic myself. Oh, you are giving us a topic No, if you can just I don't know if you were part of the first class you can watch the video of The first class again just to get a hang of you know, what is it that we discussed? So the topic has to come from you All right, so you yeah, so I would yeah I would suggest that you please go through the video of the first class that we had Just to go over the specifics, you know why we are doing what we're doing Just to get a good understanding of it and then No proceed further, right? All right. Thank you so much. I will post mine. Yeah Thank you success Okay Who else so Zalitoli Yeah, Zalitoli so cross-cultural evangelism an Examination of Naga missionaries strategies and impact in Cambodia so that's very specific and So I I didn't know that there were Naga missionaries in Cambodia You know, so I mean it's a looks like a good topic Yeah, please go ahead. You want to focus on five Naga missionaries So is it like something modern something? Contemporary that's happening right now Zalitoli Zalitoli there Yes, okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So it's something happening right now contemporary missions modern missions Okay, and life of these five Naga missionaries. Okay So what you're going to talk about is the The Naga missionaries Strategies and The kind of impact that they've had in Cambodia. Okay. Okay. Yeah, go ahead Sounds good Okay Okay, then we have Any any questions Zalitoli anything that you have No, okay, okay Then Okay, Rosalind Rosalind Christine parenting, so you'll have to change it to the Rosalind Christian parenting is a good topic But what about Christian parenting? So in your description, you said I like to do some research on Christian parenting challenges challenges faced by them in raising godly Children so again like what we discussed last class When you say Christian parenting Are you talking about small children? I talk about teens or I talking about all of that, right? and So your topic also would need to So it can't be just Christian parenting So you'll have to kind of add to it. What about Christian parenting? Maybe what you've written a little bit in the description, you would you know change the topic accordingly? First can I see some yeah sure, please Thank you. So so first of all, this is like Challenges faced by a Christian parents raising godly children like which will include like, you know like many parents like When the child is born or you know their journey in raising them In the word of God, they'll take them to church and you know everything what they can give from their side Is is right? It's correct. But then there comes a stage age where Some children they just go out of track. They become rebellious They They are so influenced by the outside world So I want to do some research like, you know, even though the parents have raised them In the church or in the word of God yet There are families like even I have come across Who are facing challenges like the parents have a question. What wrong did we do? We did everything what what as a Christian parents one should do still you know, the child has become rebellious or The child is now like say Maybe 2021 Has a job. I'm just giving you know, whatever I have schemes scenario. Yeah, okay So the child is like now is self-dependent And doesn't want to support the parent now, you know, so Left the house, you know, I know about the two families once In one case the parent is a pastor another parent is Just a normal church going parents and also So like I want like I know I cannot Do some depth research about it, but then I just want to go through like like what went wrong or Like for the child to become rebellious like the prayers I They're raised in a church environment So what do we call like normally if we are a prayer warrior, we would see the attack from the devil We we fight on our knees, you know to bring the child back So Yeah, so yeah, I got it. So yeah, so so so the thing is See one a question I would ask you is so how many Christian parents are you going to study? interview In this research I know two of them Two of them would be to be very few Very less to base your whole research on It's a very Very narrow, you know thing to base your conclusion on so because you're saying Christian parents again Now Christian parents, maybe they belong to a certain Certain state culture language You know, maybe they are whatever profession, you know, they're so So what is it that you're looking at right? So because the factors would differ, right and which country? Again, right is it going to be India? Is it going to be South India and North India where so you would need to Because if you say Christian parents, we are saying globally So that's the assumption right and they say Christian parents challenges faced by them. They're saying globally But when you do the research, you realize that okay, you're doing something local Something even, you know, maybe it's in your town. Maybe it's in your church So that is what I'm saying, you know scope of research because if you're if you're saying, you know Christian parenting challenges faced by them and you focus on only Two couples two families Then the research is not complete Whereas if you say a study of maybe 20 Christian couples in you know, wherever you're from and Or you know, 20 is also a less number, you know small number it has to be I would say at least 50 to find, you know for the research of this nature and To study to find out what are the commonalities? What are the things that are different? So that that would give The better conclusion an accurate, you know finding So that is what I'm talking about Rosalind. Yeah So this is this topic is good. You want to find out how they brought the child and You know, so you're looking looking at the negative side of it, right? You brought they brought the child up in the Christian ways in the best way possible But something is not right, you know, the child is not Maybe coming to church or you know, they've so we have to find 50 such At least I'm just saying you know 50 in order to find out in order to come to a good conclusion So your topic has to be changed to that, you know a study of 50 Christian couples On on the on the parenting styles And the effectiveness of their parenting style you you get what I'm saying Yeah, so that's the So you love to that's why I'm saying you change the topic to Reflect what kind of research and you do this will be my first research. Yeah, I think for most of us it is Yeah, yeah, so so you change based on what kind of work research can you do? right, so So this the subject is good parenting. It's good and Yeah So you think about it Rosalind Yeah Just but by evening if you can now post And and yeah the topic also specifically, okay, this is what you can do and it has to have have some depth Which is what it into but if you can you know, if there are 50 families Maybe in church, where do you live Rosalind? You're in Mumbai, okay So maybe in church maybe in another church and we can give you a letter Saying that you're a student and you know to whomever you want to give it to you know kindly assist in collection of research data No, we can yeah, I'm just talking to everyone Yeah, that's yeah, yeah Sure but get the permission of the pastor and You tell tell the pastor that you're doing a research of this nature. Is it okay? Get the permission and And then you can do it and if you want a letter from From the Bible College saying, you know that you're doing you're a final year student and as part of the requirement for the course that there is a research that is required and And so for therefore if possible and if they are willing to They can assist And so then you can yeah, then you can meet and talk. I'm sure you know 50 families 50 families may not be a problem So then your research would be you know in this particular community in this church Then it would be accurate Right, so I can I'm like take 25 Parents was Facing challenges and are struggling and 25 can I include some successful stories like yeah, that'll be good That'll be great. So it'll give a you know, you can give a problem and then give The difference what they did and you can give your own you know from the study of God's word and observation and experience your Suggestions your recommendations, right? That would be good. Yeah, sure Okay, so based on that you please change the topic. Okay? Yeah, yeah, thank you Okay, who else is there next? Okay is Paul Paul ever to is Paul there in class Okay, Paul. Yes, I'm there. I'm yeah Hi Paul. So Paul you're talking about the Great Commission and the believers participation Okay, so a case study in somebody put their hands up Okay, I'll just come back to this Whatever you're put on the chat so Red Commission believers participation case study in Moroto municipality, which is I assume is part of Uganda and what you mentioned here So your study is why is there? Hesitation by believers in witnessing and discipling and carrying out the Great Commission. Okay, so Yeah, so when you say this municipality Moroto municipality Your are you you're talking about how many churches are there Paul? They are about 10 churches 10 churches. Okay, so which means that you will study you'll do a study on all the 10 churches the believers from all 10 churches Yes You would yeah, okay, okay So you can you know have a sample size from all the 10 churches and are these all 10 churches are they different? Like denominations and backgrounds Yes, they are different even denomination and different backgrounds Okay, but they're all Are they all like Bible believing kind of churches or You know Yes, they're all Bible believing. Okay. Okay, so fine. So there's some kind of a You know commonality there so you can do that a case study of believers and And to find out why is there so so why do you assume that there is limited? You know, they're not really witnessing What I see What I see in most churches here believers Their main work is they go to for church service. They offer tithes and offering and then that's all they go home So the rest of the witnessing is left to the reverence to the pastors Don't those church leaders, but the real people of the congregation. It seems that's not their business That is to come and attend a service either on Sunday or Saturday and then they go home again They come back next week. So that is what I see them doing So the rest is left to the either the pastor or the Revran or the cateches. It is none of their business. Yes Okay, okay So the title you can actually it's a great topic you're trying to find out why The believers are not doing what they're supposed to be doing the disciples are not doing what they're supposed to be You know carrying out their responsibility in the great commission. So you please change the title accordingly right Because when you say great commission and believers participation, I'm not sure if it fully explains that So maybe you could Yeah I don't know. I am not able to think of anything But maybe you could think of something which explains your research a little more and you can do this But but you know, please include all the churches Then you would be able to see why some churches are doing more, you know and Why other churches are not doing it and also maybe if you get to you know, if it is possible for you to You know meet with the leaders the pastors and so on and To find out, you know, what they are doing to help encourage the church The believers in the church are they encouraging at all, right? That will also give you a clear picture To find out what whatever the reasons are, right? Okay, so I guess so how will you so what method will you use? To find out this information Yeah, we'll use question as and then also focus group discussions Okay, that's great. Yeah Yeah, so that'd be good question as if people can so So yeah, so I think you can start by putting together the kind of questions that you want and you know You can avoid open-ended questions Maybe keep it minimal, right? Make it close-ended so that you would get all those options and everything in Yeah, and then maybe okay focus group interviews Maybe you can have a different set of questionnaires for the church-going believers and a different set of I mean a different questionnaire for those who are The pastors there you can have to set two questionnaires and that would be helpful Yeah Okay Okay. Thank you Paul Okay Okay, we we have come to the end of the class and we still have a few more names to go, right? Well, okay Subashish Yeah, so Subashish, can you just explain you said justice? Actually, I want to study 4 to 5 persons those who have already Did a good job in this particular area. So for you from India site One or two persons I have already Recognize them and one or two persons from No, I didn't understand. What is the what is the research about? Justice what made them to Actually as I've already mentioned that Yeah, we say justice Like what kind of injustice Are we talking about So I'm not able to hear Subashish, I think your mic is muted Actually Mainly means I will focus the people that you are poor and marginalized and So actually I will focus the leaders that those who have Given their life to help these people what made them actually give their whole life To help these people to come out from this Life Okay Okay, so I think we need to Close now, but I'm still not very clear Subashish So you will have to you know explain it a little better. So Subashish, Rebekah Anita Lea Lama Abu Bakar John and so what we'll do is you know, can you I'll just post my email ID here Could you please so we can discuss it further?

Yeah, sir, I have my My research topic should I also forward it to your email? You know the search topic, please put it on the Google sheet And if I so I will I will email you I will be sure go ahead and do that. Yeah, so research topic. Let's put it on the so this of course I'm talking about online students and in-person students E-learning, please put it on your discussion page discuss and discussion section and I will get back to you on that Okay, so we'll wind up here. Thank you so much Interesting discussion. God bless you guys. Bye. Bye
