| Summary: | … constructive restructuring is not something that one can work out on paper and put into practice by the mere adoption of such a program at the denominational level. … Yet one model has appeared on the scene in recent years that demon-strates concretely that a restructuring can take place. This model was the civil rights local movement in which men and women, for all practical purposes, left their local congregation in order to give themselves to this paramount cause. It is this historically recognizable model that gives a clue to what can take place when people are committed to the extent that they will identify themselves with a cause to the point of exclusion, if need be, of their former group identification. |
