What kind of problems do Christians face at their place of work? EN carried out a short survey in three churches in three different areas of the country to find out . . .

First of all we questioned 50 employed people attending an evangelical church in Guildford, Surrey. These included fairly even numbers of men and women. There was a good spread of age, and types of employment were evenly divided between manual work, clerical work and jobs which were a mixture of both. The participants were able to fill in the questionnaire anonymously.

Two other smaller surveys were carried out. One was in a church in Accrington, Lancashire, the other in a church in Clapham, inner London. Looking at these three very different locations hopefully gives balance to the figures we have produced. All the churches were nonconformist.
