Resumen: |
Durante las últimas dos décadas, la ciencia de los estudios congregacionales ha florecido significativamente en el Reino Unido, asà como en Estados Unidos y Australia. En este volumen esclarecedor y estimulante, el grupo de investigación de Leslie J. Francis se basa en la Encuesta de Signos de Crecimiento realizada en toda la Diócesis Anglicana de Southwark para ilustrar cómo la fuerza de los métodos de investigación cualitativos y cuantitativos combinados puede aprovechar los conocimientos de la teorÃa psicológica. , teorÃa sociológica y teologÃa empÃrica para iluminar cuestiones apremiantes de relevancia para la sociologÃa de la religión, la psicologÃa de la religión, la teologÃa práctica y los estudios pastorales. Los capÃtulos individuales analizan la generación desaparecida de jóvenes, la generación canosa de setenta años o más, cómo los feligreses ocasionales expresan pertenencia y compromiso, las conexiones entre el tipo psicológico y la motivación religiosa, y las caracterÃsticas distintivas de las congregaciones en crecimiento. |

Summary : |
During the past two decades, the Science of Congregation Studies has blossomed significantly in the UK, as well as within the USA and Australia. In this illuminating and thought-provoking volume, Leslie J. Francis' research group draws on the Signs of Growth Survey conducted throughout the Anglican Diocese of Southwark to illustrate how the strength of combined qualitative and quantitative research methods can draw on the insights of psychological theory, sociological theory, and empirical theology to illuminate pressing questions of relevance to the sociology of religion, psychology of religion, practical theology and pastoral studies. Individual chapters discuss the missing generation of young people, the greying generation aged seventy and over, how occasional churchgoers express belonging and commitment, connections between psychological type and religious motivation, and the distinctive characteristics of growing congregations. |
