Professor Scott Thumma and Erica Dollhopf, Visiting Assistant Professor of Religion and Society, led a steering committee meeting last week to plan for Faith Communities Today‘s major 2020 survey effort. Researchers from 12 diverse religious communities met in Orlando, FL., to plan this collaborative research project.

Faith Communities Today is a series of ongoing research surveys and practical reports about congregational life that has been happening for over 20 years.

Also last week, Professor Thumma and Allison Norton, Visiting Assistant Professor of World Christianity and Religious Studies, gave a conference paper at the International Conference on World Christianity at Princeton Theological Seminary.
