Project Description (Part 12)

Excerpt from, “From social justice warrior to Gospel-centered servant of God: An educator’s reflection on critical theory and Christianity” (Linkletter, 2021).

This project is an autoethnography.

An autoethnography is an “approach to research and writing that seeks to describe and systematically analyze personal experience in order to understand cultural experience” (Ellis et al., 2011).

Specifically, this project summarizes my personal experience researching, analyzing, and synthesizing information I learned about critical theory and Christianity.

The aim of this project is share with the reader a synthesized description of current literature from critical theorists and share my personal experience interacting with the texts and learning how it interacts with my biblical worldview.

The goal of this autoethnography is to encourage others to investigate critical theory and think critically about how it affects their personal worldview and the lives of themselves and their family.
