This topic is near and dear to my heart. Our Church meets in a large Sanctuary designed for a couple hundred people, average attendance now is less than 50. This alone increases the reverb time. And the solution (wrong) always seems to be turning up the volume, thereby reducing the S.I.
We see this everyday. If people can not hear the spoken word of their faith, what are we doing? Why wasn't the room designed to support music and voice? Why is the appearance of the room more important than the sound quality. After 20 years of working in churches, we see new designs still with no budget or space for acoustics. However, there is always budget for ornamentation.
We have made numerous videos on managing reverberation in churches. Its all about the necessary four wall and ceiling treatment surface area coverages along with the proper rate and level of absorption technology used.
