Eight churches in America close their doors every day
Less than 20 percent of Americans now attend church
The average church has shrunk to less than 90 people
The average church member gives $756 a year
Only 2.5 percent of church volunteer hours are with the poor
Church members total annual giving to all sources averages $756 a year
Less than 10 percent of church-giving is for any form of outreach
This is reality. We need to get out of denial, move beyond angry resistance and begin seeking God for wisdom about how to live out the gospel in our new post-Christian world.
