Unchurched Friend #2

Interview of Andy (High School senior @ CAT)

Are you actively attending any church?
o Currently, No. We moved into the area here several years ago and just haven't really found a church we'd like to call home.

What are a few issues or topics that impact/interest you?
o I like how the church plays large role in helping the needs of people; helping to straighten out their lives; giving the younger people something to do with offering youth groups.

Why do you think most people don’t attend church?
o They don’t believe, or maybe too busy, at least they might think they're are too busy.

If you were to look for a church to attend, what kind of things would you look for?
o A Pastor who brings life into their sermons, helping to unify members of the same age group as well as other generations and introducing different kinds of activities other than just traditional services.

What advice can you give to pastors who really want to be helpful to people?
o Be down to earth, and get to know people before you try and “fix” them. I think a lot of people are afraid to get close to their pastors because they don't feel they are genuine enough as a real person to them.
