Assignment:

Imagine that a church is interested in exploring the concept of religious coping and using insights from the literature to benefit members of the congregation. They contact you, as an expert in the intersections of psychology and Christianity, to present your recommendations for incorporating the literature on religious coping in a way that will enhance their members' relationships with their experience of the Holy Spirit.

Presentation to members of a church's leadership on relevant findings in the psychological literature on "religious coping." Highlight findings you find particularly interesting or insightful; articles that describe interventions, practices, or techniques that have been tested would be particularly helpful. Your presentation should culminate in a recommendation to the church's leadership for an implementation that you believe would benefit their members' religious experience.
