Spiritual Openness in America? : State of Independence
28m
You’ve heard this story of the decline of church attendance in America, haven’t you? Fewer people are walking into churches on Sunday mornings. Fewer joining. And fewer believe their grandparent’s view of God—or accept—that the Bible is without error. But what if there’s something else going on? Something rather remarkable happening that isn’t reflected in those sad headlines. What if many are rejected by a certain kind of church but are actually on a serious quest to find God, and fill that void in their heart? Today, Joe Watkins speaks with Craig Springer, a Barna Research Vice President, who worked on this research project. He’s also written a book called “How to Revive Evangelism”—his take on how to share your faith in a world that feels like it’s moved past God and religious belief. (original airdate 3-10-23)
