Healing the Family and Saving the Country
When I was 9 years old, my parents separated and then divorced. When I was 15, I announced to my mother that I no longer would go to church. Apparently, in doing so, I was living out a common phenomenon. As marriage declines, so does religious belief, John Van Epp and J.P. De Gance point out in their new book “Endgame: The Church’s Strategic Move to Save Faith and Family in America.” This is not merely a psychological issue, the authors argue, but a deeply spiritual one.
