"The church is dying!" It's a phrase we hear within and outside of the church all too often. Average worship attendance keeps going down. The average age of regular church attendeees keeps going up. Professions of faith are far and few between. And yet, in the midst of what seems like terrible news, God keeps showing up. New faith communities and creative ways of being church keep forming. People who feel lost, unwanted, or leftout keep being found.
Stop saying the church is dying!
Join Nadia Bolz-Weber for this one-night only event, as she brings to light some of the beautiful and creative ways in which the church is not only alive, but thriving.
