Many people today genuinely struggle to find a church that is grounded in Scripture and faithful to what the Bible actually teaches. Research and long-form studies from Christian scholars and church historians have noted a steady shift in modern preaching toward topical, motivational, and self-improvement messages. While these sermons can feel encouraging in the moment, they often leave believers without deep biblical answers or a clear understanding of who God is. When life brings hardship, suffering, or tragedy, this lack of theological depth can leave people confused, disappointed, or even walking away from their faith.
Another widely discussed concern in pastoral and theological literature is the tendency for some churches to take Scripture out of context or avoid difficult passages altogether. This often happens out of fear of conflict, cultural pressure, or declining attendance. Over time, this approach produces sermons that avoid the full counsel of God. Many believers are left with unanswered questions, unmet expectations of how God works, and a growing sense of spiritual emptiness.
