The study was based on 250 interviews with persons who have become disassociated with the church and with those who are active church leaders and lay persons.  The interviews revealed that the major factor for both apostasy and inactive membership was problems concerning marriage and divorce.  A second factor was lack of support in times of crisis.  Other causes were movement between cities and decline in spiritual life.  The conclusion highlights several causes of apostasy.  The Ghanaian church should consider the question of premarital counseling and the importance of adoption in the Ghanaian setting."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["Andrews University"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["4b1d9df2-25d6-46f6-a889-1871c277d61c"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["public","work_editor"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791135201372405760,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T08:47:18.760Z","score":1.0},{"system_create_dtsi":"2023-10-11T23:44:38Z","system_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T08:48:01Z","has_model_ssim":["Etd"],"id":"62cc3af0-c668-49f8-91e3-473d1360f7bd","accessControl_ssim":["942963e9-b2f3-4965-9866-1fca978cd7bc"],"depositor_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"depositor_tesim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"title_tesim":["The deeper life conference: an Adventist adaptation of the spiritual retreat concept"],"date_uploaded_dtsi":"2023-10-11T23:44:38Z","date_modified_dtsi":"2024-02-17T01:01:37Z","isPartOf_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8"],"hasEmbargo_ssim":["60abf711-1803-4909-8ee4-f7f4a319515d"],"hasLease_ssim":["ce6fc241-9553-4781-a530-e778b60fa6e1"],"show_pdf_viewer_tesim":["1"],"show_pdf_download_button_tesim":["1"],"institution_tesim":["Atla RIM"],"degree_tesim":["Unknown"],"degree_granting_institution_tesim":["Andrews University"],"advisor_tesim":["C Raymond Holmes"],"year_tesim":["1988"],"resource_type_tesim":["Unknown"],"types_tesim":["Text"],"creator_tesim":["Norman A Yeager"],"keyword_tesim":["Tests and measurements in religion"],"publisher_tesim":["Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary of Andrews University"],"subject_tesim":["Spiritual retreats","Seventh-Day Adventists","Spiritual life"],"language_tesim":["English"],"abstract_tesim":["One of the pastor's responsibilities is to teach parishioners how to maintain a deep personal relationship with God.  The Seventh-day Adventist church has not developed tools that enable the pastor to meet this responsibility.  The Deeper Life Conference is designed to fill this gap through the adaptation of the spiritual retreat concept.  During the weekend long conference, the participants receive instruction in meditation, prayer, healthfulness, and fasting, and are given time to practice meditation and prayer.  Three surveys taken before, at the close of the Conference, and six months after the conference determine the growth in the participants' spiritual life.  Growth in the relationship with God seems to take place across all age groups and lengths of church membership."],"rights_statement_tesim":["https://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/"],"thumbnail_path_ss":"/assets/work-a3b75da7abded620ab321410c80d102e5e2417b71c54de7ba7d4b0363da904f7.png","suppressed_bsi":false,"actionable_workflow_roles_ssim":["f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-approving","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-depositing","f6c99b2a-5c91-4444-8946-01a1837f1fd8-default-managing"],"workflow_state_name_ssim":["deposited"],"member_of_collections_ssim":["Andrews University"],"member_of_collection_ids_ssim":["4b1d9df2-25d6-46f6-a889-1871c277d61c"],"visibility_ssi":"open","admin_set_tesim":["Metadata Only"],"account_cname_tesim":["rim.ir.atla.com"],"human_readable_type_tesim":["Etd"],"read_access_group_ssim":["work_editor","public"],"edit_access_group_ssim":["admin"],"edit_access_person_ssim":["ckarpinski@atla.com"],"_version_":1791135249655136256,"timestamp":"2024-02-17T08:48:04.806Z","score":1.0}],"facets":[{"name":"resource_type_sim","items":[{"value":"Unknown","hits":2,"label":"Unknown"}],"label":"Resource Type"},{"name":"creator_sim","items":[{"value":"Joseph Addai","hits":1,"label":"Joseph Addai"},{"value":"Norman A Yeager","hits":1,"label":"Norman A Yeager"}],"label":"Creator Sim"},{"name":"contributor_sim","items":[],"label":"Contributor"},{"name":"keyword_sim","items":[{"value":"Tests and measurements in religion","hits":1,"label":"Tests and measurements in religion"}],"label":"Keyword"},{"name":"subject_sim","items":[{"value":"Seventh-Day Adventists","hits":2,"label":"Seventh-Day Adventists"},{"value":"Church membership","hits":1,"label":"Church membership"},{"value":"Spiritual life","hits":1,"label":"Spiritual life"},{"value":"Spiritual retreats","hits":1,"label":"Spiritual retreats"}],"label":"Subject"},{"name":"location_sim","items":[{"value":"Ghana","hits":1,"label":"Ghana"}],"label":"Location"},{"name":"language_sim","items":[{"value":"English","hits":2,"label":"English"}],"label":"Language"},{"name":"publisher_sim","items":[{"value":"Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary of Andrews University","hits":2,"label":"Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary of Andrews University"}],"label":"Publisher"},{"name":"date_created_sim","items":[],"label":"Date Created"},{"name":"types_sim","items":[{"value":"Text","hits":2,"label":"Text"}],"label":"Type"},{"name":"year_sim","items":[{"value":"1988","hits":2,"label":"1988"}],"label":"Year"},{"name":"format_sim","items":[],"label":"Format"},{"name":"member_of_collections_ssim","items":[{"value":"Andrews University","hits":2,"label":"Andrews University"}],"label":"Collections"},{"name":"degree_sim","items":[{"value":"Unknown","hits":2,"label":"Unknown"}],"label":"Degree"},{"name":"discipline_sim","items":[],"label":"Discipline"},{"name":"degree_granting_institution_sim","items":[{"value":"Andrews University","hits":2,"label":"Andrews University"}],"label":"Degree Granting Institution"},{"name":"department_sim","items":[],"label":"Department"},{"name":"funder_name_sim","items":[],"label":"Funder Name"},{"name":"event_title_sim","items":[],"label":"Event Title"},{"name":"event_date_sim","items":[],"label":"Event Date"},{"name":"institution_sim","items":[{"value":"Atla RIM","hits":2,"label":"Atla RIM"}],"label":"Host Institution"}],"pages":{"current_page":1,"next_page":null,"prev_page":null,"total_pages":1,"limit_value":10,"offset_value":0,"total_count":2,"first_page?":true,"last_page?":true}}}
