Accordingly, the leaders' pursuit of that unity is also an attempt to organize the people, requiring witness to the fact that the struggle for liberation is a common task."

“Organizational Development: The New Christian Right of the 1980s was dominated by paper organizations that were essentially the mailing lists of a handful of politicized ministers. Such organizations were better at issuing press releases than doing the hard work of political mobilization and advocacy. By contrast, the movement of the 1990s has generated a plethora of grass-roots organizations that allocate meaningful responsibilities to individual members. The goal is to create an army of grassroots activists who know how to stimulate political change.” KnowsHardChristianPoliticalIndividualGoalResponsibilityKnow HowAtheismMovementHard WorkDevelopmentMembersPaperRootsOrganizationArmyPressesPositive AtheismListsMeaningfulReleaseMinistersGrassActivistContrastHandfulAdvocacyOrganizationalGrassrootsChristian RightPolitical ChangeMobilizationMailingPress Release Author:Kenneth D.
