The Cost of Religion Gender Gap in the Church

As recently as last year, the religion gender gap has persisted among older Americans. This type of change has been noticed some theorized because the church has been so focused on growing their male attendance. One theory is that as more women become more educated and more likely to focus on careers, they are less likely to be involved with the church. A rising population of the religiously unaffiliated could also play a role in narrowing this divide.
