Review of a Project in Ministry

Summary of the project

The doctor of ministry degree got its approval from the American Association of Theological Schools making the degree gets a place of being the most popular degree of the present times. A significant applied research marks as one of the major element of the Doctor of ministry degree making the project a sensitive one both in the context of the ministry theory and practice. A criterion has been designed by the Association of Theological Schools and the research project must meet the requirement as being highlighted in the criteria. The material that was being included in criteria was very general making the project work to be loosely defined and thus created a number of difficulties. The purpose and the nature of the Doctor of Ministry projects along with the presentation and the formatting styles were marked previously with very little uniformity.

In this thesis report the review of the literature has been included that helped in finding the research problem for the thesis project. This problem is in term so the shortage of the relevant material that could help the Doctor of Ministry students in successfully and efficiently completing their major research projects. Thus, the major objective of this DMIN project is to lighten the knowledge of the Doctorate of Ministry students by preparing a manual that will focus on the element of the project as well as its nature and obstacles highlighting the effective strategies that could be used in order to prepare a project. The methodology that is being used by the project is the use of survey too, with the help of questionnaire that were being sent to the seminaries and students of the universities and colleges in order to review the historical perspective and thus providing the personal perspective regarding the project. The elements that are common to most projects were then studies and the findings are presented in the form of offer of practical advice in order to successfully prepare the elements. The conclusion is presented in the form of two observations, there is much more to be included in the philosophical background of the degree in order to provide it will a deal of progress and must have an identity that the scholarly world could accept. A number of questions are needed to be addressed by the American Association of Theological Schools that will help the students in effectively completing the DMIN research projects.
