Description

Studying Local Churches: A Practical Handbook provides a comprehensive guide for those researching and understanding local faith communities. This handbook is designed to support students undertaking research projects and dissertations, as well as church leaders and policy makers interested in local churches. Drawing on four key disciplines - anthropology, sociology, organisational studies, and theology - the handbook offers practical advice on both quantitative and qualitative research methods. It covers essential topics such as selecting a church, gaining access, data analysis, and maintaining confidentiality, with real-life case studies and worked examples to illustrate key concepts. With its wide range of contributors bringing extensive theoretical and practical experience, this handbook is an ideal resource for anyone looking to study local churches in depth.
