Softcover. 110 p.; 21.5 cm. (Studies in ministry and worship ; 2) Postscript by David M. Paton. "The aim of this investigation is to try and make some contribution to a more adequate understanding of `the deeper, underlying, general causes which bring abount the unresponsiveness of the contemporary mind to the Christian message'. The words are those of [H. H.] Farmer . [who] distinguishes between intrest and understanding on the one hand, and the capacity to respond on the other. The heart of the problem lies in the question of response.' (p. 11 f.) -- "There were many people who sould have agreed that `England will never be converted until the laity use the opportunities for evangelism daily afforded by their various professions, crafts and occupations', but were unable either to recognize these theoretically numerous opportunities or know what to do about them when they appeared. Until such questions are answered, exhortations to evangelism remain a polite formatily to which no one is actually expected to respond." (p. 95) -- The chapter on each of the parishes (disguised as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John) includes a table on membership of men and women by age groups and four charts on 1. occupational status; 2. religious practices: frequency of a. attending church, b. prayer, c. religious discussion, d. Bible reading; and 3. religious beliefs, ranging from untroubled conviction to untroubled doubt: a. The church the body of Christ, b. Jesus Christ--the Son of God, c. God--creator and father, d. death--gateway to eternal life. VG, sewn, in orig. magenta and black on ivory wrapper.
