I was recently at the Southern Baptist Convention and heard this statistic quoted from the platform, “More than 90% of the churches in America have plateaued or are in decline.” When I heard these words it really gave me a sick feeling deep inside. I knew we were troubled but this is astounding. How could this be with all that we have available in ministering to a lost world?
