Clergy and Congregational Leaders in the United States, Part 2 (Jr/Sr Module)

Clergy, or religious leaders, are important figures in the lives of congregations and other religious groups. They are responsible for preaching, leading worship, interpreting sacred texts, and counseling people in their faith. The goal of this learning module is to explore a nationally representative survey of congregations and their clergy in the United States to learn more about religious leadership in the United States. This module is the second part of a two-part module.
