Did you forget about us? Because we certainly almost did! It's time for an EXTENDED INTRO too. Where's Mike? On this week's/month's episode of The Weekday podcast, Mike, Just, and Andy dive deep into why people have been leaving the church...and why some are now coming back.
We haven't done the weekday in longer than a month. Justin is back from a mission trip to the DR, Mike is fired up, and Andy can't remember how to run a podcast.So hang on. We're digging in to an article that is a HEAVY HITTER when it comes to the reasons people are leaving church. Through our discussion, we take various trips in and out of the church, the reasons behind "workism," leadership struggles, and how we may be able to speak into this world a little bit more.FIND THE ARTICLE HERE: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/the-misunderstood-reason-millions-of-americans-stopped-going-to-church/ar-AA1ew9dQWhat about you?

The buzzword AI has really been part of the news for the 8 months now, so we figured it was time to talk about it. Quick and topical But AI does NOT equal what we've been seeing in generative AI and ML (machine learning). Should the church/pastors/church staff/congregation be scared of generative AI and machine learning? What do things like ChatGPT, Midjourney, and DALL-E mean for the future of the Gospel?And, the big question, how can we TRULY look at art in the same way again?IN THIS EPISODE:-Easter Skittles-Kroger Gift Cards and MLMs-Top 3 Tech Items That Are Off The Beaten Path-Why modern sanitation is under appreciated**********Connect with us at bayhope.tv!E-mail us: theweekday@bayhope.comLike, share, and subscribe to THE WEEKEDAY at: Youtube playlist - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQZbAK_N-16TuY_KabhX0SLD35MYj8GlZApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-weekday/id1525390546Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/4I16hDlYkY6wVLAqrni645----------Like, comment, & subscribe to stay updated with our latest Bay Hope content!Plan a visit to one of our physical OR online campuses at https://www.bayhope.church/campusesLike, comment, & subscribe to stay updated with our latest Bay Hope content!Plan a visit to one of our physical OR online campuses at https://www.bayhope.church/campusesFOLLOW Bay Hope Church:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/bayhopechurch/Twitter - https://twitter.com/bayhopechurchFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/bayhopechurch/Website - https://www.bayhope.comLIVE services - https://live.bayhope.com*****Ready to grow in your faith, connect with new friends, and get in a group?

The world doesn't need another podcast or show about the awakening/revival that's happening in Wilmore, Kentucky, at Asbury University. But we are going to bring one anyway.

Should we jump on board? Should we continue to pray?And what does this mean for the future of the church as a whole?Thanks to our buddy Austin Slade behind the switcher, we persevere through Justin's sickness (get well soon, my dude).IN THIS EPISODE:-Spy balloons, UFOs, and the submarine from the "Ready Or Not" video (thanks to The Fugees)-We try to explain gravity in Star Wars-Ascots----------Like, comment, & subscribe to stay updated with our latest Bay Hope content!Plan a visit to one of our physical OR online campuses at https://www.bayhope.church/campusesFOLLOW Bay Hope Church:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/bayhopechurch/Twitter - https://twitter.com/bayhopechurchFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/bayhopechurch/Website - https://www.bayhope.comLIVE services - https://live.bayhope.com*****Ready to grow in your faith, connect with new friends, and get in a group?

How SHOULD the church respond to it?What is a Christian influencer? What makes it just FEEL a little off about our world?And how should the church ACTUALLY respond to all of social media in the wild?Justin, Mike, and Andy tackle this, plus a whole host of wonderful pre-show banter, including movies that Justin has never seen (most of them) and our Top 3 Guilty Pleasure movies (which one of us didn't understand).What are some things that you're seeing the landscape around this topic?

Is church dead? Why do pastors and church leaders seem to be so bad at self care that they let it ruin their lives, their ministries, and their families?And is their lack of self care promoting the "decline" of the church?Join us for a candid conversation about self care, counseling, leadership, vulnerability, and how to combat the the pull of the enemy away from being a healthy leader.SPOILER: no matter what you are doing in life, no matter your vocation, calling, or status, YOU ARE A LEADER. And you are able to be healthy and whole with the Lord's guidance in your lives.In this podcast:-Justin is NOT a psychiatrist, and he has bad takes on ice cream flavors (sorry, not sorry)-Pastors that have fallen-Immorality and healing from that-And, of course, the best chat about brain-eating amoebas on the Internet to date.----------Year over year, average church attendance is decreasing.
