Last week in my NewsWithViews column,1 I responded to the curious claims of a Christian Post reporter about alleged survey findings she highlighted from a LifeWay study in a couple of recent articles titled, “Most Adults Switch Churches to Flee Former Church.” and “Most Church Switchers Choose Non-Traditional Worship,” where she concluded that “More than one in five adults who switch to a new church move away from traditional worship…” and that “…most do not end up attending traditional services as they formerly did.”

Knowing that this didn’t sound right, I invited readers to email me personally with “the primary reason they left their former church and if they actively sought out and ended up in a more contemporary fellowship,” to see for myself if the results would be anywhere near those cited in the Christian Post.
