 Click on the above link to a 108 page study of why children of SDA Clergy leave the chuch as adults.

NOTE:  If you do not want to read the entire 108 pages, there is a 2 page abstract beginning on page iii.

What an interesting and useful study.  I don't have time to read the whole thing right now, although I would like to.  I wish there were a way to get this paper into the hands of every Adventist pastor.  Just from the abstract, my feeling is that he is right on target.
