The Church Needs to Step Up Its Game | Phil in the Blanks Podcast

We’re leaving behind organized religion in shocking numbers. In 1988, 17% of Americans said they never attended religious services. By 2021, this almost doubled to 31%. Church membership in the US has dropped below 50% for the first time in history. Even as the population grows, somewhere between 6,000 & 10,000 churches close down every year. Listen in as Dr. Phil and his guests delve into the hot topic of religion’s shifting role in today’s society. They unpack the societal impacts, share relatable stories of feeling disconnected from traditional practices, and brainstorm innovative ways for religious institutions to stay relevant in the modern age.

The conversation balances the proven community perks of religious involvement with candid tales of disillusionment and hypocrisy that drive some away from organized faith. It’s a deep dive into navigating faith in the 21st century, blending hard data with personal insights, and spotlighting the urgent need for religious institutions to evolve while staying true to their core spiritual values.

I believe we need to have a personal relationship with God . My dad was a pastor in a "Christian "church. I'm glad for my upbringing, because of very important signs that God promised will take place in the end times and, my friends, it's close! With so many religions to put my faith in, I believe that God wants us to pray for a personal relationship with him. God Bless everyone

When our government tried to make it a crime to take a walk, to assemble, to go to work, etc.. What did the clergy do? Did they advocate for our freedom on behalf of God? No, they ran and hid and, in a lot of cases, joined the establishment or showed they were simply part of that establishment and control measure.

Thank you sir, we need more teaching like this ❤❤❤❤

That's right, only God knows.he could have whispered Jesus in his last breath, we can't say if somebody went to he'll. BUT the Bible says if we are not born again, we will not see heaven .but I believe in death bed salvation.

This is what I do know, there was a before and after, a dividing line, in my life where I knew I was separated from God and when I was not separated from God. My life transformed. My Journey was that of Saul on the road to Damascus. I was blind, but then I could see! I can only tell you that my life was changed the moment I believed God could save me. I did not even know I was separate from Him until I did. God did it all. He opened my eyes to see my sin and He opened my heart to trust in Jesus. My life has never been the same.❤️👑🙌🏻

Does anyone love, believe and respect God like me?....❤

[LouHoskins]

There is religion and there is a personal, intimate relationship with our Creator. I would encourage those searching for God to pray for knowledge, study his word and believe God will reveal himself to each person who sincerely seeks.

We don’t even know if your grandpa went to hell only God knows

[mrdavinci]

Everyone who experiences death blames God. But it's màn that cause this suffering, it took God to fix it when he came as Jesus Christ, my baby brother was murder and died in my arms.God didn't do it, evil did . We must move forward in life. Hopefully, you will find peace.

Earth is heaven. Some get to live longer than others and their beliefs will help them or hurt them.

[marymcreynolds]

time to seriously study universalism....david bentley hart is a good place to start.

[tvunbte]

I think these things that are happening in Catholic Church are true but it’s individualized
I believe in God it depends on how you define it
You have free will to choose what you want to do and how you lead your life
I think without God it’s difficult to exist it’s just me
Others can do whatever they want and how they can be saved
Without God in our life I don’t think I’ll exist

[CookieTXgirl]

Sooo now she is just WILLINGLY condemning herself to the same exact fate that she believes/assumes her grandfather received... 🤔
There you go! Stop believing! SPITE God, that'll show Him!! 👍🏻👍🏻
(She's a bright one! ... 🤦‍♀️)

[einkaliber]

It is sad when people who aren't educated in what the Bible says about salvation stop believing entirely because of false beliefs.

John tells the easiest and most simple way to receive salvation. However Revelation also tell another way to receive salvation. Jesus even explains what will happen if they died before Him or never knew Him and how they receive salvation.

Before Jesus receives the thrown, all the people whose name is not in the book of life will get a chance at that time to bend a knee as proclaim "Jesus is Lord!" And we will be saved into the Kingdom.

Whoever would get this message and that knows the girl that’s on the doctor Phil show that her grandfather passed away and now she decided not to believe in Christ no more she does not know if he called called the Lord into his life at his very last breath so why should she not believe in God no more and don’t trust God and don’t pray no more for her to lose her salvation and what if her grandfather in heaven and she doesn’t see him because now she’s in hell something to think about pray about 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
