Belief in God Triples Among 18-24 Year Old Britons

[Tall Timbers]

Christianity is experiencing a revival among young people in Britain, with the number of 18-24 year olds believing in God increasing by nearly 200 per cent since 2021.

After decades of Christianity declining in Britain — falling to such an extent that the 2021 census found that Christians had become a minority in England and Wales amid the rise of atheism and Islam — there appears to be an indication of a trend reversal and possible revival of the faith in the United Kingdom.

According to YouGov’s tracker of religious belief, conducted twice per year, the number of 18 to 24-year-olds professing belief in God rose from 16 per cent in August of 2021 to 45 per cent as of January of this year, representing a 181 per cent increase in just three and a half years, GB News reported.

This is good news if young people are actually finding Christ v.s. religion.

From the OP:

While the Catholic church has seen attendance increase from 23 per cent to 31 per cent since 2018, and Pentecostal churches have seen a six per cent rise, the Anglican church has seen a decrease from 41 per cent to 34 per cent attendance during the same time period.

This perhaps belies the folly of the move by church leadership, notably former Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, pushing woke ideology in an apparent attempt to court young people.

May these kids dig into the Word of God and truly know the truth and peace found through simple faith in Jesus.

God is reaching them past all the bad theology in Catholic, Anglican, woke liberal and evangelical churches. Some may be false conversions, others genuinely seeking after God.

Yes, finding belief in God is so wonderful, and is paramount in finding the door that leads to belief in Jesus.
I am praying that this is the case in England............ and, hope it spreads into every nation in the world.

Maybe the influx of Muslims and the extreme wokeness over there is prompting the Holy spirit to counteract tis and draw people to Jesus.

I think sort of like how the church grows under persecution , maybe a similar principle is happening over there
