NewHaven't seen this
None of this is happening in my church now. It also wasn’t happening in my previous church, last I knew (not very long ago). I don’t doubt that it’s happening, so I wonder what sorts of churches are seeing this pattern.

NewDoes Sam Rainer have his hand on the 'pulse' of churches?
Does Sam Rainer have his hand on the ‘pulse’ of churches?
I”ll give you ten reasons why he doesn’t!

It’s pretty much what the Rainers do. Demographic studies, consulting. So they’re in touch with a lot of churches. I suspect they’re most in touch with large churches though, so maybe what he’s described is a trend in the bigger ones.
