Twelve Ways to Know God Writing Assignment

Twelve Ways to Know God

By Peter Kreeft

Assignment: Write a two page, typed paper on one of these ways to know God. You must have an opening paragraph with your central point--the thesis--as well as a developed argument supporting your thesis. The title of your paper should be focused, not simply “Church”, but something that expresses your main point. This is a paper you must really think about. Finally, after you pick a way that has helped you to know God, connect it explicitly to a quotation from Sacred Scripture. I would like you to put this quotation in the conclusion of your paper, thereby showing the harmony of Faith and Reason as they reveal our Creator to us.
