Denominations That Are on Red Alert for Rapid Decline
Using a recent study by Ryan Burge, Jess and Thom examine the sobering reality of demographic decline in two groups: the Southern Baptist Convention and non-denominational evangelical churches.
It’s about Baby Boomers and demographics.
All mainline denominations are in a demographic freefall.
The Southern Baptist Convention is declining, but it’s about to get worse.
The modal age of SBC church members is 62. For the U.S., the modal age is 35.
Just 6% of SBC adults are under 30, the same as among Episcopalians.
The greater freefall is less than 10 years away.
