Exploring Online Faith Services: A Diverse Religious Experience

Abstract

Experience Project Online Services List: For your project you will view TWO services from the list below. The services you choose should be from two different categories in this list (and BOTH must be different from your own faith). So you should choose one service from one of the categories below, and a second service from another category. If you want to use an online service that’s not on this list, you should email me a link for approval BEFORE you write your paper. Make sure to read the assignment guidelines for details about what to include in the paper.
