  • This project report traces evolving concepts of loyalty in American culture, their effects on the church and some responses to the changing definitions, relating loyalty to beneficial participation. It challenges assumptions and establishes a theological and psychological rationale for church loyalty, setting forth a detailed, systematic definition which delineates three degrees of church loyalty, identified as eros (self-gratification), philia (approval of community), and agape (sacrificial) types of loyalty, and sharply distinguishing the absence of loyalty from disloyalty which is viewed as destructive and unresponsive. Behavioral models of unloyalty and the stresses that test their loyalty are delineated, including so-called 'burnout.' loyalty development in the biblical communities and the researches of church motivational authorities are combined into a suggested program to elicit loyalty and an experiment involving the application of this treatment in a local church setting is reported with the result that preventive measures show promise of developing loyalty and fortifying church members against the pressures that test it.
