This week we’re going to be talking about the level of commitment among church members toward the work of the local congregation. A survey of “pastors” found that the vast majority of them said that “apathy or a lack of commitment” is the primary challenge they face among the people of their congregation. This attitude will cripple a church. In this episode, we want to talk about what is expected of us as members of a local church.

STORY – Apathy in Churches Looms Large for Pastors

“Pastors often deal with churchgoers with strong opinions, but they’re much more concerned about the people in their congregations who don’t seem to care much at all.

“In the final release from Lifeway Research’s 2022 Greatest Needs of Pastors study, most pastors say the primary people dynamic challenge they face in their churches is people’s apathy or lack of commitment.”

“Three in 4 U.S. Protestant pastors (75%) say apathy or lack of commitment is a people dynamic they find challenging in their congregations.” (Lifeway Research)
