Analyzed the community narrative of a student religious community using participant observation, structured interviews, and document analysis. Themes of the narrative included the value of accepting others' differences as diversity, the value of creating and building places where people feel “at home,” the importance of personal growth through asking open and honest questions, and healing past hurt. Social organization and processes in the campus ministry reflected these narrative themes, indicating the translation of the narrative into practice. Personal stories told by individual members also reflected these themes, suggesting that community narratives are a powerful psychological resource used by members to develop and maintain personal identity. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
