The Barna Poll and the Parachurch. PLUS: Is Easter Pagan?

"The survey’s demographic breakdown reflects that the church has failed to impact the theological formation of the next generation, whether pew-sitters or the broader population. The theological ignorance is stunning. " later you quote another author, “It could be argued that the primary theologians influencing the spiritual views of America these days are figures such as Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, Russell Brand, Jordan Peterson, Megyn Kelly, and Bill Maher.” Clearly, the church is failing in it's catechesis, but certainly ministers are up against a competition of those who take 6 days of content, and then come in on Sunday with no appetite for the means that is supposed to supply them for the week. How can churches compete? Does the Bible support the ministry of parachurches? Could parachurches be a part of the areas of ignorance we see today? Brooke, Ontario, Canada Dr. Ventrella, my son Tommy asked me about the pagan roots of Easter historically and its relation to the Church's historical practice. Is Easter a oneist or pagan practice that became synchronized with Christianity? Should we reject it in favor of more early practices like a Seder dinner?
