Abstract
- Research suggests that middle-class conservative Protestant congregations are opening up to the process of modernization. They are popular because they both accommodate and resist modernity. In this paper, I discuss the specific aspects of modernization that are accepted or rejected by such congregations. The paper concludes with a consideration of the likely stability of such a mixed response to modernization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
