New Data Suggests Younger Americans Are Returning to Church in Unexpected Numbers

[Conservative Angle]

​

A Christian revival is taking place in America, especially among younger generations.

In a clip that’s going viral on social media, conservative commentator Benny Johnson drew attention to the massive surge in Christianity, which he calls a miracle.

Johnson says that, first the first time ever, young people are attending church at higher rates than their parent’s generation.

Movements like the one started by Charlie Kirk are having an even bigger impact on youth than previously assumed.

Watch what he had to say here:

“Young men are more right-wing than they have ever been measured! Young men who voted for Trump, their number one priority, is starting a family and having children. That’s what Charlie was always preaching about, because that’s God’s command to us!”

The numbers back up Benny Johnson’s claim.

According to a recent study, members of Generation Z are leading in terms of church attendance.

Christianity Today shared more details on that enlightening study:

hurchgoers between the ages of 18 and 28 attend church more frequently than their older siblings, parents, or grandparents. A new study, part of the State of the Church research initiative from Barna Group and Gloo, found a post-pandemic surge among Gen Z churchgoers over the age of 18.

Today, when people born between 1997 and 2007 go to church, they attend, on average, about 23 services per year. Churchgoing Gen Xers, in contrast, make it to about 19 out of 52 Sundays, while Boomer and Elder churchgoers average just under 17, Barna found.

Millennial churchgoers, born between 1981 and 1996, attend 22 services annually, up from a previous high of 19 in 2012.

The Barna study, released today, calls this a “historic” and “generational reversal.”

“The fact that young people are showing up more frequently than before is not a typical trend,” Daniel Copeland, Barna’s vice president of research, said in a statement. “This data represents good news for church leaders and adds to the picture that spiritual renewal is shaping Gen Z and Millennials today.”

Absolutely incredible.

Praise the Lord!
