The course covers three areas: (1) an exploration of communities as
local demographic settings within larger urban, regional, and
national contexts; (2) an exploration of congregations as local
religious organizations; and (3) the study of how congregations
respond to their communities as well as how communities influence
the nature and dynamics of congregational life. The
primary emphasis is sociological and theological but
interdisciplinary and experiential approaches are also included.
