Recently I had a chance to speak with a friend from the ward. It seems that quite a few people have quit going because they are losing the desire to be there. Apparently, they are being taught less and less, and the activities are becoming more and more like mini sacrament meetings. And it seems that going to church lately has become more like an obligation rather than an opportunity.
And to make matters worse (better?), the leadership is making it look like those who are not there are choosing evil over good, and that does not sit well with the folks who are their friends.
It's starting to look like tightening the screws is a bad idea.
