Step # 2- Now we were asked to pick one of the 100 items I listed to think more in depth about.  This should be an item I have questions about or am interested in learning more about.

The topic I chose to write about is a Pastor or the Pastoral ministry

Step #3-For the item I chose I was asked to brainstorm a couple of questions about this topic.  These should be analytical questions or questions I don’t already know the answer to.  This is to see if I have enough room to write a research essay on this topic.

What type of education is expected of a Pastor?

What are the job descriptions of a Pastor?

How much time goes into the ministry?

What is the average age of a pastor?

How do you become a godly pastor?

How much study time should a Pastor give?

How long does a pastor work on his sermon?

How good does a pastor need to be at English (writing his sermon)?

How much should a Pastor pray a day?

How much time should a pastor spend on visitations and services?
