 Bowling Alone: How Washington Has Helped Destroy American Civil Society and Family Life

Church attendance in the United States is at an all-time low, according to a Gallup poll released in April 2019. This decline has not been a steady one. Indeed, over the last 20 years, church attendance has fallen by 20 percent. This might not sound like cause for concern off the bat. And if you’re not a person of faith, you might rightly wonder why you would care about such a thing.

Church attendance is simply a measure of something deeper: social cohesion. It’s worth noting that the religions with the highest rate of attendance according to Pew Forum have almost notoriously high levels of social cohesion: Latter-Day Saints, Jehovah’s Witnesses, Evangelical Protestants, Mormons and historically black churches top the list.

  1. The problem is that the churches have gotten so radical that it's unpleasant to listen to the sermons - and has been for 20 or more years.

    I'd love to find a church that isn't eyeball-deep in "Social Justice".

  2. Pastor Weaver has one in Georgia and I'm sure you won't be disappointed. :) I have many of his sermons on FNC also.
