Deconstructing Church Attendance

from Fractured Faith: A Mosaic of Belief · host Joshua S. Hopping

According to Gallup poll, church attendance has been dropping in the US since 2009 with COVID being the last straw for a lot of folks. To repopulate churches, pastors have begun to talk more and more about the importance of church attendance. Yet for some, organized religious gatherings bring up painful memories or just don’t seem relevant anymore. Join co-host Joshua Hopping and Angel Ford as they talk with special guest Emily Hopping (former worship/children pastor and church planter) about shifting church habits and deconstructing what it means to go to church.
