Why People Are Leaving the Church


Listen Later

We’re currently living through the largest and fastest religious shift in U.S. history, with 40 million people having left houses of worship, mainly in the last 25 years.

In this breakout session from TGCW24, Jim Davis and Michael Graham, authors of The Great Dechurching, unpack four types of people who’ve left evangelical churches, why they left, and why more than half of them are willing to return.

They discuss the following:

  • Why we need data on dechurching
  • Key findings from The Great Dechurching’s study
  • The timeline and causes of dechurching
  • Four profiles of dechurched individuals
  • Myths and misconceptions about dechurching
  • Practical steps for engaging the dechurched
