Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A church refers to a large, bureaucratically organized religious body that tends to seek accommodation with the larger society in order to maintain some degree of control over it. Unlike sects, churches have established hierarchies, formal doctrines, and a greater degree of institutionalization. Cults and new religious movements are typically smaller and less established than churches.
