Commentary on Typology of Religious Characteristics of Social Service and Educational Organizations and ProgramsVirginia Commonwealth University In this commentary about Sider and Unruhs typology, four questions are raised: (a) When religion is visibly expressed, is it the expression of religion? (b) When organizations move within the continuum, do they move in multiple and even counterintuitive directions? (c) How do beneficiaries benefit? (d) How does the "faith factor" figure into macro programs? It is concluded that it is in both what the typology is designed to do and not designed to do that informs future research.
