Synopsis:

Assuming that the reader has little or no background in research and statistics, this volume presents important research concepts and methods in everyday language, illustrated by examples from the field of ministry. Major concepts from research methods used in education, nursing, and sociology are simplified for theological students and ministry researchers whose professional curriculum normally does not include research methods. The fact that the author has produced doctoral dissertations in ministry and education strengthens the book and makes it an important guide for Doctor of Ministry candidates pursuing quantitative research.
