  • “The Intersection of Islamic Feminism and Performing Arts: A Reflection on Ms Marvel and its Impact on Personal Spiritual Development”

    Its an 8 page essay. Double spaced. 12 font. Its the final paper for a class called Performing arts and Religion studies. In the class we did a skit in the class, on this book called Ms Marvel which is about islamic superheros. my essay is about islamic feminism. And that was my role in my skit. I just had a role to convery what islamic feminism is, and how its important. 
    These are some pointers to have in the essay. ———–>>
    The paper must address the following issues: 
    Why did you choose this particular text to rehearse and perform?
    1 Professor told me told me to do.
    My personal interests in Marvel
    My personal curiosity about the fact that someone dared to write Marvel about a Muslim character.   The author of this novel is an American convert to Islam.  
    My personal interest in feminism
    My curiosity about Islamic feminism
    How did rehearsing and performing enriched your understanding of the text
    It demonstrated to me rigor and resistance of feminism
    It demonstrated me its possible limiations
    It made thing about future of feminism
    It made think about compability of Islam or any religion with feminist agenda.
    It also sort of generated in a sense of caution- what if feminism is just one the ideologies?  Maybe all ideologies are wrong.   
    How did reading additional material (see a note on this below) help you articulate more clearly your understanding of the text?
    Is Quran a really feminist text?  According to Muslim, Quran is a holly text revealed directly to Mohammed.   6th century Saudi Arabian peninsular.   It is a word of God.  Everything in Quran is true in the absolute sense.   Bring your personal experience into consideration.   Examine here thoroughly – is there, should there be Islamic feminism?  Or is it an American academic concoction? 
    Why Muslims traditionally have issues with Hinduism?    Christians and the Jews are mentioned as people of the book in Quran and accorded certain amount of tolerance.   Hinduism is not mentioned in Quran.   Especially images- Quran forbids using images.  
    Is it just of one interpretation of reality
    What impact did your active encounter with the text have on your personal spiritual development?
    Did you personal feelings and thoughts change about Islam after rehearsals, ?
    Would you recommend this text to your friends to help with their own spiritual development and why?

  • “Growing in Christ: My Personal Journey and Philosophy on Making Disciples”

    This research paper will express my viewpoint concerning my spiritual growth
    and my philosophy on making disciples.
    Please compose this paper using Turabian 9th edition.
    Here’s your outline:
    1. Share your story of coming to Christ and how you’ve grown spiritually.
    2. What implications does your experience have for helping people mature in
    faith?
    3. Explore the tension between working out our salvation and working to earn
    our salvation (See Galatians 3).
    4. What does it mean to be an apprentice of Christ?
    5. What can a local church do to help people in their spiritual growth?
    Unlike other research papers, please use first person in this paper. I need to express my own opinion on making disciples, but it needs to be an informed opinion. In other words, there have been many great thinkers throughout Church history, and I would like you to reference some of them in this paper (e.g., Willard and Foster have written a lot). Of course, the Bible is a foundational reference for
    all we do, so I also would like you to reference biblical material.
    In addition to the Bible, I need a minimum of eight high-quality references.
    Please do NOT use the following in this paper as they are NOT academic sources,
    even if they are wonderful ministers/speakers/Bible teachers (and they are!)
    Matthew Henry, Chuck Swindoll, John MacArthur, David Jeremiah, Beth Moore, J.
    Vernon McGee, Warren Wiersbe, H. Ironside, Billy Graham, Franklin Graham, etc.
    Below, I attached my personal written testimoney so that you have a baseline for my spiritual growth and can therefore make an assumption on my philosophy for making disciples.
