New research points to "many opportunities for the Christian community—the original social network—to provide genuine responses to the needs of today’s culture. The Church, when functioning properly, can address the rising epidemic of loneliness, financial strain and indebtedness, increasing concerns about morality, among many other things. Faith communities must respond to the “fearful” realities of the future with wisdom and love. After all, Jesus teaches that we should not be anxious about tomorrow, not even the changing psychographics of Americans.’’ David Kinnaman, Barna Group.
