Churches can reverse declining attendance

From London-

We’ve all heard statistics on declining church attendance. Evidence of this decline abounds in our region in the number of churches lost or converted for other uses, plus the amalgamation of congregations.

I believe this trend will reverse itself with two factors driving it.

First, the happiness chasers will continue to experience an emptiness after each new toy has been acquired. Eventually many will realize the void they’re trying to fill is spiritual.

The second factor involves the church. We must continue to reach out to our communities to deal with both the physical and spiritual issues that arise daily.
