LOVELAND, Colo., Oct. 3, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- The church in America is in decline. A new book takes a candid inside view of the state of Christianity in America and challenges the church to change.

Why Nobody Wants to Go to Church Anymore (Group Publishing) moved into the #1 position in the Adult Christian Ministry category within hours of its release.

Why Nobody Wants to Go to Church Anymore brings to light some of the societal and generational trends that are negatively impacting church attendance, and offers insights for how churches can reverse the trend.

Co-authors Thom and Joani Schultz have also written top-selling titles such as Why Nobody Learns Much of Anything at Church and The Dirt on Learning, which addressed many of the challenges that affect Christian education.

Group Publishing was founded by Thom Schultz in 1974 and serves as a resource provider for churches of all denominations.
