Sociologist Robert Wuthnow says one in five previously churched (18 to 29 year olds) has stopped attending church. A major reason for the shift is that these adults (or quasi-adults) are marrying later.
Another problem is that while the church youth groups keep their young parishioners busy doing youthy things, the pastors are neglecting to inculcate them with “in-depth” biblical teaching.
