  • "Active", meaning they attend church on a regular basis and are committed to living their religion,
  • "Less-active" meaning they attend church on an occasional basis and may or may not be committed to living their religion or
  • "Inactive", meaning they do not attend church regularly and/or they do not adhere to its principles.
