"But Mason's main point of rebuttal, according to Vicari, seems to be that churches across the country are struggling with attendance."

Churches are struggling with attendance because there are very few that preach and teach a true gospel. If they did, I'll bet people would be beating down the doors.

See my tagline.

The more conservative churches, like the fairly new Presbyterian Church of America, are practically exploding in growth.

Don't blame the Gospel, it's not that hard to get right.

The problem is The Church (i.e. people).

“Churches are struggling with attendance because there are very few that preach and teach a true gospel.”

Absolutely correct! So many churches today are afraid of “being offensive” and they base their worship on one or two passages. For me, give me the whole gospel! If more people knew what they were really up against I believe they would come around, but nobody wants to believe. They’d rather believe in “aliens”.
