Description
Summary:The pioneering work of H. Paul Douglass and his Institute for Social and Religious Research still serves as the inspiration for a continuing line of church research. Most recently, the Faith Communities Today survey coordinated by the Hartford Institute for Religion Research has confirmed the relevance of Douglass' work. In this H. Paul Douglass Lecture, David A.
