   @nugger @RehnSturm256 WELL THAT IS MORE OF A CONSEQUENCE OF THE FALLING AWAY IN AMERICA IN GENERAL. WITH OVER 3/4 OF CHURCHES SHRINKING IN SIZE AND "MEGACHURCHES" (WHICH TYPICALLY ATTRACT PEOPLE FROM ENTIRE ZIP CODES AND BEYOND) GROWING, CONGREGATIONS ARE MORE DIVIDED THAN EVER. LOCALISM IS HARDLY THEIR BIGGEST ISSUE THOUGH
   
   ON THE FLIPSIDE, THE REMAINING SMALLER INDEPENDENT CONGREGATIONS THAT ARE TRYING TO STAND IN THE GAP ARE GRABBING FROM A MUCH LARGER POOL OF PEOPLE TO SIEVE OUT THE REMNANT STILL INTERESTED IN ATTENDING A ROCK SOLID CHURCH. IF ANY ARE GOING TO POSSIBLY COME TOGETHER IT'S THESE FOLKS, THEIR BIGGEST OBSTACLE BEING A GENERATIONAL DIVIDE WHERE THE BOOMERS HOLD ALL THE CARDS AND DON'T WANT TO TRY ANYTHING RISKY AND THE YOUNGER MEN ARE JUST ALONG FOR THE RIDE WHETHER THEY LIKE IT OR NOT
