Joseph and his neighbours receive a flyer advertising a community hockey game sponsored by a local church. He and the others are invited to play hockey and afterwards attend a service. What does this invitation reflect?

A) the secularization thesis
B) the revised secularization thesis
C) the market theory of religion
D) the community affiliation model of religion

The invitation reflects the market theory of religion, which suggests that religious organizations might engage in activities to attract or retain members, similar to how businesses operate in a market to attract consumers. By sponsoring a community hockey game and inviting people to a service afterwards, the church is engaging in an activity that appeals to the community's interests, potentially increasing participation and membership.
