This is a Collaborative Learning Community assignment.
The instructor will divide the class into groups and assign a religion other than Christianity to research.
Create a 5-7 slide presentation with speaker notes that focuses on views of evil and suffering from a religion other than Christianity. Your instructor will assign a religion to each group.
After researching information on your assigned religion, address the following:
- Describe the view of suffering (source and cause of suffering and solution).
- Explain grieving process.
- Identify approaches to dealing with grief (solution to deal with suffering).
Include a comparison of assigned religion to Christianity. How does your assigned religion differ from Christianity?
Support your position by referencing at least three to five academic resources (preferably from the GCU Library) in addition to the Bible and the textbook. Incorporate the research into your writing in an appropriate, scholarly manner.
Select one team member to post the presentation to the “Suffering and Evil” thread in the Main Forum. Respond to at least one other presentation.
While APA format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.
