The idea of churches becoming more informal, in my opinion, is a good idea. Letting people of any sexuality and race in to worship what ever they want to worship in an interactive way seems like it would work and the statistics show that too.
Why does it matter the way churches rejoice Christ? Whether they're using projections or the "old-fashioned" way, they're still celebrating the same thing you are. That goes for gays and lesbians as well. They love Jesus just as much as anybody else.
I was surprised to see on the graph how low the choir bar went down. Back in the olden days, if you went to church, you were either in the choir, or singing along with the choir. From 1998 up to 2012, being in or singing with the choir has gone down 15% and it's probably going down even more throughout the years.
I think that if churches want young people to worship they need to worship how young want. If everything in religion stays so traditional and old school, young people simply will not want to worship. Church can still be somewhat formal, but needs to also consider what the people want.

ReplyDeleteI like how churches are changing with society but i do think they should stay formal and keep some of the traditional things.
