Ditching Religion

A new study of 35,000 Americans by the Pew Forum Resarach Center diagnosis the current fluidity of religious practice today. Over 44% of Americans no longer participate in the same religious expressions as their parents did, and the fastest growing segment are the “unaffiliated” who don’t identify with any specific religious group. Brad and Wayne dive into those statistics and the hope that people are tiring of religious ritual and yet still seeking a valid and cohesive faith. In the process they talk about the difficult process of having our religious expectations overrun by reality and having to look again at the New Testament promise and how Jesus invites us to live it out. Also, they announce that the people at Family Room Media have released their fourth and final video in the Church Without Walls series.
