Course Work

1) Look at one or more of the unit sections you've studied in the course [or any piece of Christian or theological writing] and show where:

- needlessly complex language is used

- needlessly complex sentence structure is used

- the argument is too involved.

2) Write a tract explaining the basic Gospel as you understand it, aimed at being as clear and simple in presentation as possible [up to 1000 words].
