The study describes the effect of a computer on the efficiency, productivity, and creativity of a local church's information management and organization. The study explores the use of the computer as a pastoral tool and considers ethical and theological issues that emerge when a computer is introduced into the church. It follows the church through the investigation, purchase, and implementation of a computer system, and suggests a future relationship of computer and church. Research focuses on the implications for information management and organization. The project suggests theological implications and develops ethical standards. A process of evaluation finds that the use of a computer as a pastoral tool in the church increases efficiency, productivity, and creativity in the practice of ministry.
