520 |a The process of social science as public philosophy has applicability for a new and different kind of religious research underlying local church planning. Since theory, research and planning interact, critical analysis of their connectedness is called for. The literature differs on whether or not they are essentially connected, whether social science research is even compatible with church planning, and whether or not adequate rationales for planning already exist. A review of this literature concludes that sources are not available which critically blend a theory of research with applications to church planning. Criteria useful for doing such an analysis are drawn from both theoretical and practical sources and social science as public philosophy is demonstrated to meet those criteria and to employ epistemological underpinnings that ground moral inquiry as properly scientific and germane to church planning. Pertinent features of the epistemology of Michael Polanyi are the sense of indwelling and commitment, the role of judgment and the role of enacted growth in hermeneutical understanding, a growth which transforms a congregation thus constituting a new state of affairs. Discussion draws out some implications that this position has for application to church planning and suggests strategies that a planning model could build upon.
