"Someting is not right with church life" today. SO says Julia Dunin in her controversial book "quitting church." She documents an ongoing trend in which those who seek a genuine spiritual experience are opting out of organized religion. "It's no secret that the percentage of Americans in chuch on any given Sunday is dropping fast...The problem seems to be the church itself."

Indeed, many churchgoers are troubled by what they see- political infighitng, corruption, and abuse, watered-down doctrines. Increasingly, organized religion is seen as irrelevant in today's complex world. Young people in paticular are turnign away from the church in record umbers.

"What about you?" are you troubled by the growing complacency and corruption in organized religion? Has your churc experience led to positive spritiutal growth/ Or do you feel frustrated, negelcted and spiritually unsatified? What should you do?
