摘要

在基督教会众中，老年人的角色通常与教会的寿命和维持工作的财政资源有关。这两个因素可以结合起来，形成保守的观点、对过去的保留，以及影响变革决策的力量。在对三个教派的21个教会进行的一项研究中，研究人员发现，尽管许多年长的参与者会对LGBTQ+在教会、领导层和包括婚姻在内的圣礼中的包容做出负面反应，但其他人则致力于并领导变革，通常是从社会正义的角度来看的。

The role of older adults in congregational discernment: lessons about LGBTQ+ inclusion

ABSTRACT The role of older adults in Christian congregations is frequently connected to both longevity in the church and financial resources to sustain the work. These two factors can be combined to create a conservative perspective, preservation of the past, and power to influence decisions about change. In a study of 21 congregations across three denominations, the researchers found that while many older adult participants would communicate a negative response to LGBTQ+ inclusion in churches, leadership, and sacraments including marriage, others were committed to and led change, often from a social justice perspective.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Religion, Spirituality and Aging is an interdisciplinary, interfaith professional journal in which the needs, aspirations, and resources of aging constituencies come clearly into focus. Combining practical innovation and scholarly insight, the peer-reviewed journal offers timely information and probing articles on such subjects as long-term care for the aging, support systems for families of the aging, retirement, counseling, death, ethical issues, and more . Providing a crucial balance between theory and practice, the journal informs secular professionals – administrators, counselors, nurses, physicians, recreational rehabilitative therapists, and social workers – about developments in the field of Religion, Spirituality, and Aging. The journal also serves as a resource for religious professionals, such as pastors, religious educators, chaplains, and pastoral counselors who work with aging people and their families.
