YEAR THREE:
CULMINATING PROJECT

Truett Seminary Culminating Projects are producing exciting innovations in ministry practice. The researcher is required to design, implement and evaluate a new approach to ministry or a major revision of an existing approach. The projects are based on extensive biblical and theological study and reflection—giving a substantial and worthy framework for doing ministry.
