Just today I saw 5 people in our current church from our former church. These are new this Sunday. One man was a die hard “not going to leave” and his wife was pushing hard to leave. Letting go of two pastors, especially since they are viewed as solid, really put it over. I wonder how many more have jumped ship? Where we live there are hundreds of church options close enough to drive comfortably, so I can imagine if there were 5 in our church there could be many who have left. It will be interesting to see what happens in our former missional/spiritual formation/emergent youth focused/ purpose driven church.
