Mainline Protestant congregations have faced decline over several decades. Can these churches grow again and also hold fast to their commitment to social justice?
Paul Moore a pastor of a Presbyterian Church (USA) Congregation in the suburban Twin Cities, MN believes the answer is yes and is practicing what he believes. In this episode, we talk about how Presbyterian and other mainline Protestant denominations can have thriving churches again if they learn to "grow young."
