Worshipers across America were surveyed to provide a portrait on congregational life in four dimensions: spirituality and faith, congregational activities, community involvement, and their vision for the future. Findings from 2001 were published in the first edition of A Field Guide to U.S. Congregations. Now, with the completion of the 2008 U.S. Congregational Life Survey, the authors have created a new and expanded edition of this invaluable reference. It has been revised to reflect new findings and includes updated statistics, tables, and cartoons, along with a completely new chapter describing significant changes in congregational life between the 2001 and 2008 surveys. It also offers new content for the Myth Trap and Fast Factfeatures in each chapter and provides chapter summaries focusing on the implications of the 2008 survey's findings.
"This remarkable field guide shows how careful research, thoroughly mixed with wisdom and wit, offers a more positive future for US congregations. . . . Must reading." Carl S. Dudley, Hartford Institute for Religion Research
