We are surprised by some of these churchgoer shifts, are you?
Our new study with Cultural Research Center brings to light some important areas for churches and pastors to think through.
Dr. George Barna, FRC's Senior Research Fellow for the Center for Biblical Worldview and the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University's Director of Research, remarked:
"The media bombardment favoring a new moral standard is clearly having a transformative effect on Americans. Perhaps the best way to combat the decline in biblical moral perspectives is for Bible-believing Christians to be more candid and bolder in engaging friends and family in dialogue about critical moral issues. We cannot let unbiblical views go unchallenged. Christ-followers must not only know what they believe and why, but must be actively seeking to challenge points of view that are biblically indefensible."
David Closson, FRC's Director of the Center for Biblical Worldview, who co-authored the report, commented:
"For decades, Christians have led the way in defending the dignity of unborn life, but these findings reveal just how much cultural confusion has seeped into the church. Pastors and Christian educators must reclaim their calling to 'equip the saints' (Eph. 4:12) by teaching a full-orbed biblical worldview. This is not the time for silence or vagueness."
