Ground breaking research based on a national database of over 200,000 churches reveals that the overall population growth rate far outpaces the church’s rate of growth. What does this mean for you, your church, and the future of Christianity in North America ?
The American Church in Crisis offers unprecedented access to data that helps you understand the state of the church today. This book not only paints a realistic picture that confirms hunches and explodes myths, but provides insight into how the church must be renewed to reach our changing world with the hope of the gospel. There are many who believe that the church in America has been lulled asleep by it own press and endless activities to build itself up.
"Dave Olson, with his relentless pursuit of truth, offers a wake-up call to a church that has fallen asleep. The American Church in Crisis offers a clarion call to all followers of Jesus to reexamine our motives, methods and mission. In my humble opinion this will be the most quoted book in the next 5 years." - Gary Rohrmayer
