Excerpt from Messages of the Men and Religion Movement, Vol. 6: The Rural Church Before attempting to state the prevailing con ditions among rural churches and communities, it should be said that there are large areas in the United States in which rural churches thrive, and country people prosper. Broadly speak ing, they are classified under the statement by an eastern professor of economics: There are three classes of successful American farmers. In the order Of their success they are, the Mor mons, the Scotch Presbyterians, and the Pennsyl vania Germans. These farmers have success ful country churches. Their rural religious or ganizations have resisted the recent economic changes, which have SO adversely affected other rural populations. And the organization of their communities is religious. Their churches are their social machinery for success in farming. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
