According to various surveys and studies, there has been a decline in church attendance in the United States over the past 30 years. For example, a study by the Pew Research Center in 2019 found that the percentage of Americans who identify as Christian has decreased from 78% in 2007 to 65% in 2019. Additionally, the same study found that the percentage of Americans who say they attend religious services at least once a month has decreased from 54% in 2009 to 45% in 2019.
However, it’s worth noting that the decline in church attendance is not uniform across all Christian denominations. Some denominations have experienced more significant declines than others, while others have remained relatively stable or even seen slight increases in attendance. Additionally, some churches have adapted to changing cultural and societal trends by offering more contemporary and engaging worship services, which has helped to attract younger generations.
Overall, while there has been a decline in church attendance in the United States over the past 30 years, the situation is nuanced and varies depending on the specific denomination and region.
