Why do people leave the Church? Part 1
1. Why did you leave?
2. Did you tell anyone you were leaving?
3. If you didn't tell the Pastor you were leaving, did he contact you when you did?.
4. How important is Worship? The style, length, the volume?
5. How important are programs: Nursery, kids, young adults, mens, womens, seniors? Programs in general
6. Are midweek bible or book studies important?
7. Outreach vs. Discipleship. Do you think there can be a balance?
8. If you could remain totally anonymous, and you will, what would you let the Pastors know?
Tommorow, I will post the answers to these questions. As I had stated, I started research on this particular blog subject almost 10 months ago. It took a long time to follow up with people. From time to time, I thought it might be time to post it, but then something else would happen, either at mine or another church, and I would not want to not hurt feelings. What if wrote something that hit home with someone. The people I surveyed, are from 2 churches that I have attended for the total of 19 years. In those 19 years, I have served under 5 Pastors. I have seen many people come and go. I am not pointing fingers, I listen to people, and this is what they say.
