anyone else notice a change of pace in christianity?

RE: anyone else notice a change of pace in christianity?
Since the percentage of christians in America is declining, pastors who measure the value of their congregation by numbers will tend to change the emphasis of what they preach to be more appealing to the general population. Those pastors who measure the value of their congregations by the number of actual christians will continue to preach the gospel as it is. That's all you can really do. You have to present the faith as it really is and those who reject it can go the way they want, which is what many of the younger generation are doing. It's a pastor's job to present the truth of the gospel and let God worry about the numbers.
