B/W Photodude Posted November 2, 2018 Posted November 2, 2018 This is all well and good: He shared that an executive committee member approached him at Annual Council. With tears in his eyes, the individual told him that his 17-year-old daughter, Emma, had texted him Sunday night after the vote to say she was leaving the church. The father asked Jackson to please contact his daughter, which he did. But as they drive the church into a gyncocentric model, what will we do about the more than 70 per cent of boys who leave the church in their teens? What does the church really have to offer the young men in the church when it is increasingly all about women? Many research studies have shown that when men stay in the church, more of their family members stay in the church. Pandering to the feminists is probably slowing down church growth and losing people (men & women) from the church.
