Why are so many Americans leaving the church — and where does Gen X fit into the story?

In this episode of The Mighty Philbert, we examine the data behind America’s religious shift. Drawing from research by Pew Research Center, Gallup, and PRRI, we look at the dramatic decline in church affiliation, the rise of the “religiously unaffiliated,” and the reasons people say they walked away.

But this isn’t just about statistics.

It’s about integrity. Institutional trust. Hypocrisy. Cultural shifts. And why Gen X may be the quiet hinge generation in one of the largest religious realignments in American history.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re alone in stepping away — you’re not.
