People leave churches for many reasons. Some leave frustrated and hurt. Some leave simply because they relocate. Some people even leave because they see church involvement as a hindrance to their faith and spiritual growth. Whatever your reasons, we want to hear from you. The creators of this website love the church, but we are also aware of its flaws. In fact, the church has disappointed us too (and truth be told, we’ve failed the church and people like you at times). It is our desire to create an open venue for those that have left the church to tell us their story.
This website was launched in February 2007 by Tim Bower and Jason Loftis as part of a research project for Dr. John Drane’s course, Theology & Culture, at Fuller Theological Seminary. To learn more about Tim and Jason, check out the Moderators page.
