Journal Reflections: Spiritual Disciplines Assignment
1. Leaders in History:
Identify a leader in history that you would like to know more about. This could be a business leader, political leader, religious leader, military leader, or someone from another vein of leadership. After identifying this leader review some biographies and resources on their life and explain what you think makes them a leader worth following. (Note: if you are in a chaplaincy program, focus on identifying and reviewing the life and leadership of a chaplain with a ministry similar to your own.)

Here’s the outline for the paper:
1) Introduction and thesis: In the introduction, try to get the reader’s attention by introducing some facts that might shock him or her. The purpose of the introduction is to convince the reader that the issue you’ve chosen is an important one. At the end of the introduction, provide your position which should say something like the following:
Homelessness in the US is rising for three reasons: A, B, and C. The consequences of growing homelessness are X, Y, and Z. The most effective way to fix the problem is by doing A and B.
Your thesis must provide arguable claims. Avoid using cliched language such as good or bad or pro or con. Be specific about what you are arguing.
2) Facts regarding the problem: In this section, you should give facts that prove the existence of the problem. Provide statistics and summaries of studies to prove that the problem exists. Feel free to use tables and graphs but make sure to cite them. Make sure your facts show the complexity of the issue. For example, don’t just say that X number of people are homeless; be specific about who these people are. How old, what ethnicity and so on.
3) Opposing Viewpoint: In some cases, there may be an opposing viewpoint. Take homelessness: does everyone agree about the causes of homelessness? Clearly no because research shows that close to 50% of Americans blame the homeless for this suffering.
So, if there’s an opposing viewpoint to yours, tell us what it is and argue against it.
3) Argue THREE causes of the problem: In this section, you should provide three causes of the problem and support those causes by evidence. Make sure to discuss each cause in a different paragraph and start each paragraph with a topic sentence.
One major reason for growing poverty in the US is A. According to the CDC, millions of people became homeless after the 2008 recession….
4) Argue THREE consequences of the problem: In this section, you should argue what the three consequences of the problem are and provide evidence to support each in a different paragraph.
5) Discuss pragmatic solutions: In this section, you should discuss pragmatic solutions. Don’t just say, Let’s all help those who are struggling: hoping for people to do X or Y is wishful thinking, so come up with specific solutions that you think have a chance of working.
Email me if you have any questions. Thanks
