Sermon Content Survey

Thank you for taking time to answer these questions! Your responses will help me to be more aware of your experiences in listening to sermons as I prepare my own sermons. After watching the Christmas video link I sent you, please answer the questions in the survey. The longest question is this first one, which indicates your consent to participate in this project.

Question Title

1. The purpose of this research project is to offer help to preachers in the Disciples of Christ denomination who desire to be sensitive to those with little to no church background. This is a research project being conducted by Dawn Weaks, a Doctor of Ministry student at St. Paul School of Theology in Kansas City, Missouri.
