Witches Are Back. Why?

“In 2011, the Barna Group, a polling firm that specializes in surveys related to American Christianity, observed that while church attendance and volunteering were declining overall as part of a broader trend of dechurching, women still continued to participate in religious activities more frequently than men. … All eyes were on absentee men, and women were assumed to be remaining a bedrock of American Christianity, just as they had been dating back to the colonial period. But by 2016, the Pew Research Center was observing that the gap between the genders in church attendance was narrowing. While women were still labeled ‘more religious’ at the time, that didn’t mean they’d stay Christian — and as it turns out, they’re not.” (10/31/24)
