Research Topic

Research Paper – Topic Instructions

Choosing an interesting and researchable topic is an imperative step for writing an excellent paper. The topic that you choose must address a particular element of a social problem (e.g., drug addiction and pregnancy). For this paper, a good topic will:

·       Have plenty of available scholarly research that you can access.

·       Be specific enough to be described in detail.

·       Allow you to discuss the different roles of the church, the family, and the community with ample examples and support for each area.

·       Allow you to incorporate biblical examples in your paper.

When choosing your research topic, be sure to keep in mind that you will need plenty of available scholarly research for your final paper. You might wish to explore the Liberty University Online Library databases for APA journal articles and/or books. In addition, research articles must have been published within the last 7 years. Government and University sites for some topics can additionally be used, as these are considered primary resources. Be sure to avoid Wikipedia, which is a secondary resource.

For submission of your research topic, discuss briefly the social problem and the different roles of the church, the family, and the community. When you begin actual research, these are areas you will be incorporating into your final topic paper. Be sure to include at least 200 words for your discussion.
