Looking at the mechanics

As regular readers will be aware I have a bit of a passion for practical theology and ecclesiological type stuff. In English that means I am facinated by the structures of churches, how they operate as organisations, the experiences of people in them, identifying existing good practice within them (rather than just moaning about them) and thinking about how we might be able to use the bible (as well as a bit of common sense) to make them more a tad more inclusive in late modern society.

I am becoming increasingly aware though that this is not seen as the role of the "bum on the pew" and it frustrates the heck out of me.
