One of the less-examined consequences of structural differentiation within Protestant denominations is an increasingly segmented labor market. This article uses historical data on the careers of those attaining elite positions within the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) to analyze the differentiation of a religious labor market into congregational educational, and agency segments. Results indicate that (1) congregational and educational segments were already well-differentiated by 1909; (2) during this century an agency segment has been differentiated from the other two; and (3) the process of differentiation is not complete
