BROADCAST: Jan. 18, 1983 | DURATION: 00:50:44

Synopsis

According to Roger G. Kennedy's book, "American Churches," places of worship can also be organic expressions of the community. In the church, whether it be a temple or a cathedral, the architecture of the building itself should be inviting so that people will want to participate inside.
