FOOTNOTE AND BIBLIOGRAPHY FORMAT ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS
OVERVIEW
This assignment is designed to ensure you are able to find scholarly resources in the Liberty online library, access and quote those sources, and then cite those sources in proper footnote and bibliographic formats.
This assignment is a major assignment and will require extensive time looking up and citing sources. Please do not delay in starting to work on this assignment.
In a couple of weeks, you will be responsible for writing a paper comparing and contrasting the approaches presented in Deep & Wide and The Prodigal Church. One book promotes an attractional model, and the other book presents more of a missional model. You will use those categories to find various sources in the library. This assignment helps you get into the habit of starting to collect sources for your major papers early in the term so that you can properly process the information.
INSTRUCTIONS
For this assignment, you will provide select resources in proper Turabian footnote and bibliographic form. Do not use the date-first Turabian style, but utilize the style with the publication year near the end of the reference. Additionally, do not assume that citation helps (even in a library databases) are correct. Generally, they are not.
To help you with this assignment, a template has been provided for you in the course. Additionally, to help you with providing the citation precisely, you should utilize the Footnote and Bibliography Format Examples provided in the course. This document lists the major types of sources you will need to access and shows what each source type looks like in its bibliographic and footnote format. I recommend using these to documents extensively.
You will provide a cover page and contents page.
For each required source, you will have a quote from the source that ends with a footnote. Then, at the end of the paper, each source will be cited in the bibliography. (Again, be sure to use the template and aid provided in the course. These will help tremendously.)
All formatting should follow current Turabian style standards.
The assignment will be strictly graded based on the quality of the sources selected and the accuracy of the formatting provided.
You must include the following sources:
2 Dissertations or Theses addressing the Attractional Church.
2 Dissertations or Theses addressing the Missional Church.
5 Academic Journal Articles interacting with the issues related to missional or attractional church approaches.
5 Books interacting with the issues related to missional or attractional church approaches.
A scholarly Commentary on Acts, Ephesians, and 1 Timothy. Thus, you will have three separate commentaries here. One for each of those books. The commentary selected can cover multiple books of the Bible, but one of these books must be present in the title for each citation. Do not cite a commentary that covers the entire Bible in one or two volumes. A scholarly commentary will extensively address a particular passage and extensively cite other sources. A scholarly commentary is different than a devotional commentary or one that reduplicates the author’s sermons.
NOTE
1, Before you apply for the paper, ensure that you are really good at formatting and Turabian Footnote and referencing seriously, if not it will be a waste of time.
2. Look at the instructions and read it and digest the content before you apply
3. The Template attached to the paper is an instruction and that is what you will open and input all the vital information’s into.

5. I will also help to go into the Liberty University Library to get you vital information’s needed accordingly and as needed and upload it for you immediately you are ready for it. Let me know how to help you and I will.
