The turning point label has no special characteristics. However, it is important to understand the definition used for tagging as it may or may not match what you want in a specific situation. As the example shows, the call motif may be tagged as a turning point so equating turning point to conversion may not serve your purposes.
The data captured is:
Turning Point
The Turning Points dataset annotates turning points in the Old Testament, deuterocanon, and New Testament. A turning point is a broad concept that includes a religious experience in a person’s, or group of people’s, life. The experience leads the person or group to make a positive change in their actions or beliefs.
• converted:... — Person or people who experience the turning point.
• event:... — The larger event providing the context for the turning point.
• proselytizers:... — The person or people responsible for the turning point.
• relatedConcept:... — Topic or concept associated with the turning point.
• religiousExperience:... — Type of experience characterized by the turning point (i.e., "following God’s commands").
• title:... — Title assigned to the turning point.For example:
• turningPoint:* — Finds all of the turning points in the Bible.
My standard layout has nothing remarkable other than the choice to code all four together rather than as two pair of twos.
The search argument generated from the context menu is:
