The Exodus of Young People from the Church

The Exodus of Young People from the Church: A Deep Dive into Age Groups and Statistics

Introduction:

In recent years, there has been a growing concern among religious institutions about the decline in church attendance, particularly among the younger generation. The trend of young people leaving the church is alarming and has significant implications for the future of organized religion. This blog post will take a closer look at the age groups most affected by this shift, the percentage of people leaving, and the current statistics on church growth.

Age Groups Leaving the Church:

According to various studies, the age group most affected by the decline in church attendance is the younger generation, particularly those between the ages of 18 and 29. This age group, commonly referred to as "Millennials" and "Gen Z," is more likely to identify as religiously unaffiliated compared to older generations.

Percentages of Young People Leaving the Church:

A 2021 study conducted by the Pew Research Center found that 36% of Millennials (born between 1981 and 1996) and 42% of Gen Z (born between 1997 and 2012) identify as religiously unaffiliated. This is a significant increase compared to the 17% of Baby Boomers (born between 1946 and 1964) and 11% of the Silent Generation (born between 1928 and 1945) who claim no religious affiliation.

The same study also found that only 27% of Millennials and 21% of Gen Z attend religious services at least once a week, compared to 38% of Baby Boomers and 51% of the Silent Generation. This indicates that not only are younger generations more likely to be religiously unaffiliated, but they are also less likely to participate in religious activities.

Church Growth Statistics:

Despite the decline in church attendance among young people, the overall growth of the church remains a complex issue. In some regions, the number of religiously affiliated people has grown, while in others, it has declined. For example, in Africa and Asia, Christianity has experienced significant growth, with the number of Christians increasing from 381 million in 1970 to more than 1.3 billion in 2021.

However, in the United States and Europe, the decline in church attendance is more pronounced, especially among young people. As the younger generations continue to drift away from organized religion, the number of religiously affiliated individuals in these regions is expected to decrease.

Conclusion:

The exodus of young people from the church is a concerning trend that has serious implications for the future of organized religion. As more and more young people identify as religiously unaffiliated and less likely to participate in religious activities, it is essential for religious institutions to address the reasons behind this shift and find ways to engage and connect with the younger generation.

By understanding the age groups most affected and the percentages of people leaving the church, religious institutions can take targeted steps to create more inclusive and relevant faith communities that resonate with the needs and values of today's youth. Only by addressing the root causes of this exodus can the church hope to reverse this trend and foster a new generation of engaged and committed believers.

Modern Day Prophets ARE False Prophets!

Many people today whether they realize it or not are part of something called the New Apostolic Reformation or NAR. This particular movement believes that the office of Apostle and the office of Prophet has been re-established. The Bible sets out very specific criteria for both of these offices. None of which can be met today. 

None of the biggest names in the prophetic movement prophesied any of the biggest and most consequential events in all of our lifetimes; they were all spectacularly wrong. They didn't prophesy about covid-19, the presidential election, the riots, or anything else of any consequence. What they prophesied on they got wrong. They should be very glad we do not live in the Old Testament time frame.

We all fall short... My confession

I AM MrBATMAN543 subscribers

It has been a very difficult few months for me. My dad got very sick and ultimately passed away. But praise God I got to baptize him before he passed. My best friend passed away. My wife is dealing with possible cancer issues... and I'm in constant pain due to a bad back. 

All this accompanies the fact but I'm a former drug addict and alcoholic. I have an addictive personality to start with. This is My Confession. 

People all too often say they will accept reproof and discipline from Elohim. What happens when Elohim sends us a person to do that? 

Do we listen or do we run?

John MacArthur gets it WRONG!

I AM MrBATMAN

John MacArthur has been around a long time and he has some good teaching and preaching. But when it comes to the Hebrew roots of the faith he gets it completely wrong. 

But I'm not judging him because I did the same thing for quite a long time. We have to read the Bible for what it truly says, not for what we wanted to say or for what our particular denomination tells us it says.
