Where are the Men?

There have been some interesting studies recently about why most contemporary American churches have significantly more women on Sunday morning than men. A book published several years ago generated a lot of interest in the question. Leon Podles wrote "The Church Impotent: The Feminization of Christianity." Now there is "Why Men Hate Going to Church" by David Murrow. I have not yet read either so I can't comment too much, but I admit the thesis interests me. Pastor Todd Wilken, in his Issues, Etc. Journal , wrote a very helpful article on the subject, but that is not, as far as I can tell, available on the net. But I suppose if you contacted him and asked for the most recent issue, you could still get a copy. If he still has them, you can get one for free. You really ought to.
