John Follis: LEAVING GOD
Millennials are setting another trend. They’ve earned a reputation for reshaping industries and institutions — shaking up the workplace, transforming dating culture, and rethinking parenthood. They’ve also had a dramatic impact on American religious life. Four in ten millennials now say they are religiously unaffiliated, according to the Pew Research Center. In fact, millennials (those between the ages of 23 and 38) are now almost as likely to say they have no religion as they are to identify as Christian. John Follis created an award-winning documentary "Leaving God" (2017) which blends an engaging personal story with the major cultural shift currently happening in America -- the shift away from religion and God.
Winner of a Hollywood International Documentary Film award, the film also documents how, before leaving God, John "sold God" via the highly successful and press-worthy ad campaign his New York ad agency created for New York's Marble Collegiate Church. He joined me this week to tell me more.
