What hope is there to resist Islamisation (even of our churches)?

Went to a joint Anglican/Methodist service in our village today. The two leaders get on very well. The congregations are happy to be with each other. There are lots of joint social and cultural ventures together that improve the life of the village. Chats about involvement in city-based social initiatives. Much to be grateful for ....and yet....
The pastors and the congregation are overwhelmingly female. (and the congregation old). So what? Well the theology is all about love and inclusivity. OVERWHELMINGLY. Lots of buzz words from wokism. It's all about the (general) female character of agreeableness (ref Jordan Peterson) No-one in either church has ever told the congregation WHY Christ had to die for us, because we are BORN with this fatal, inherited flaw that separates us from God. We can all just slide into the Faith and find our comfortable level.
When I consider the rows of young bearded men falling out of mosques into the streets to pray and make their presence public, how are we not going to be overwhelmed and subsumed (if not destroyed). When we talk about God but not about Jesus and His uniqueness, soon will come the day when our services will effectively be about a merciful Allah alone.

Never been over in Europe, but what i have gathered from postings on this site. Looks like Christianity is in a bad state over there and has been for awhile. Looks like it (Christianity) has become a feel good religion where all roads lead to Eternal Life.

Looks like that's the plan for the forums , churches, businesses, politicians, bankers, basically all religious groups and all society to go along with on the road to destruction. It has been all too apparent for years now.

Terrible situation indeed! Sometimes I think because of a lot of churches are experiencing a big decline in members the last few decades that they're willing to do anything to stop it. Even abanden biblical teaching. So many churches are more woke then biblical nowadays. It's a big problem!

I refuse to become members in our local methodist church even though we are more committed than anyone else apart from one older lady. And I know this stance is justified as I have walked this old lady through the DEI online course she has to do. I notice her continually sighing, almost despairing. Law and compulsion in church has replaced grace and love. The course does not have a single mention of Christ's unique ministry, person, salvation and atonement.
