Abstract
This paper applies a small-scale research model to elicit the ordinary theology of a group of practising Christians within a local congregation on the issue of assisted dying (AD). Valid and informative data is produced which questions whether formal church opposition to AD is as clear, and as widely held among practicing Christians, as currently assumed.
