The Great Dechurching: Who’s Leaving and What Will It Take to Bring Them Back? with Michael Graham

Nuance - A Faith and Work Podcast

The phenomenon of de-churching, where individuals who used to attend church regularly no longer do so, has been widely discussed. However, finding the origins of this challenge have proven difficult. On this episode of Nuance, Case interviews Michael Graham, co-author of The Great De-Churching, to discuss the surprising data behind the exodus from the pew.

While the church is facing a seismic demographic shift, Graham gives reason to hope that the church can draw people back. He also provides concrete ways that anyone in the local church can help friends, neighbors, and co-workers to rejoin Christ-centered communities.
