You may be happy to learn that I have the same church attendance trends in my church that you have in yours.  I have a handful of people who attend every week (and two of us are paid to be there).  I have Chreaster Christians - those who attend Christmas and Easter.  I have everyone in between.  On average, it is safe to say that my people attend a couple of times a month.  When I mentioned this to my Assistant Pastor, who joined our team a few months ago, he helped me learn that this is a nationwide trend.  It didn't use to be the case, when I was a child.  To be sure, there are cultural trends that have driven much of this, but it feels like there is more.  To show my cards a little bit up front, I sense that we need a fresh look at our theology of corporate worship.  So as I go through answering this question which headlines this blog, I hope to do so in a way that gets us thinking about the bigger picture.
