Integration of Faith and Learning Paper Assignment

1. As we begin the study of Mergers and Acquisitions what are some of the biblical principles that can be used during the evaluation, contract negotiation, and the on-boarding phase of M&A. A.  What concepts from your Gaughan text have aligned or not aligned with your biblical principles? B.  Do these concepts and negotiations morph when using the lens of your Christian world-view or is there a natural convergence of values?  
2. Search the Bible (either the Old or New Testament) for a Bible verse(s) that would guide you in answering the questions listed in section 1. 
3. Write a minimum of 800 words in current APA format, discussing this Bible verse and your Christian world-view as they relate to your chosen question. NOTE: To earn better than a minimum grade (B) in grad school, you must go beyond the minimum and it must be considered excellent work.

A suggested format for this assignment is as follows:

1.  
   1. First section: Discuss the answers to the two questions, 1A and 1B (from a practice or theoretical perspective), to include material addressing the topics of evaluation, contract negotiations, and the on-boarding phase. 
   2. Second section: State your Bible verse(s) and then discuss the verse(s). To properly address this section, it will require biblical research to put your verse(s) into context for the next section. 
   3. Third section: Discuss/analyze the importance of the Bible verse in addressing your chosen question from a Christian world-view perspective.
