- Churches lose estimated 2,765,000 people each year to nominalism and secularism.
- Between 3,500 to 4,000 churches close their doors each year in America.
- Last 10 years, the combined communicant membership of all Protestant denominations has declined by 9.5% (4,498,242), while national population has increased by 11% (24,253,000).
- Half of all churches last year did not add one new member through "conversion growth"
Ouch! It seems like the way we "do" church may be suspect.
