Linguistics was team-taught at Southern Nazarene University by Howard Culbertson and Carolyn Waterman from the English department. It could be taken for credit as an English course or as a missions course since the whole area of communication is a branch of Cultural Anthropology.
Linguistics was offered at SNU about every two years.

Writing
Standards		Most courses at SNU contain a writing component.
I expect students to produce written work that is focused, well developed, organized and relatively free of grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors.
Papers falling short of this standard will not be graded. That work will be returned to the students for further revision and resubmission.
See my writing checklist.

THE IMPORTANCE OF NAAMAN'S BATH IN RIVER JORDAN-

Today's Scripture 2 Kings 5:9–14 (NIV) Insight The Jordan River, where Naaman was told to “wash [himself] seven times” ( 2 Kings 5:10 ), was the primary source of water in the ancient Near East and is the most well-known river in the Bible. The melting snow of Mt. Hermon in the north is the main water source for the river that winds for 156 miles through the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea and has no outlet.  Joshua 3  records the parting of the waters of the Jordan so the Israelites could enter the land of Promise. Twice the waters of the river were parted in  2 Kings 2  when they were struck with the cloak of Elijah (vv. 8, 14). In the New Testament, John the Baptist baptized believers in Jesus and even Christ Himself in the Jordan ( Matthew 3:6 ,  13–17 ).

DISCOVER-SEEKERS AND SKEPTICS FAQ AND WHAT IS ABOUT ALLABOUTGOD?

Seekers & Skeptics FAQ Frequently Asked Questions Answered! Does God Really Exist? Get With the Times! Doesn't the Big Bang and Evolutionary Theory Explain Everything? Hasn't Science Removed the Need for God? Ok, if a Designer created everything, who created the Designer? What existed before the creation of the universe? Why did God create such a big universe, if all that matters is right here on earth? Why did God create in the first place? Was He bored? Was He lonely? Why did God go through the trouble of making humans? Why did God create evil? If God planned everything, why did He plan for really bad things to happen? OK, now you're using the Bible to tell me about God. Why should I trust that book as being something special? That's a pretty good approach to the Bible's overall credibility, but what about the established myths and legends? For instance, if the earth is less than 10,000 years old (as the Bible tells us), what about the star light th...
