Open Table: Radical Inclusion of Communion

The State of the American Church

What’s really happening to the American Church right now—decline, plateau, or something else? In this episode, Bishop Greer, Rev. Marc, and Bishop Ben look at credible data and the lived reality behind it: shifting Christian identity, changing religious practice, generational gaps, and the strain many churches feel even when numbers “stabilize.” We also talk about polarization, trust, and what resilient, faithful Christianity can look like in 2025–2026—without fear and with hope.
