Nones stands for Non-Religiously affiliated. By definition, this means if you put out a survey or a census asking what religion those people would associate with, they wouldn’t choose one at all - they would choose none.

A question I get a lot is “how do we get more young people into our church?”. This question inevitably leads to a brief conversation about advertising through social media, emails, or even the newspaper.

I’m a fan of media, but I still believe that a personal invite is always the best way to go.

Interestingly, only 2% of people in their church say that they’ve invited someone in the last year.
