Way to go Millennials and Elders

A new set of numbers on the evangelistic practices of Christians as a whole, Evangelicals in particular has very encouraging things to say about the Millennial generation.

While they have been known for their focus on “social justice” they are the only generation whose evangelistic practices increased significantly in the past three years.

When asked, “During the past 12 months, I explained my religious beliefs to someone who had different beliefs, in hope that they might accept Jesus Christ as their Savior”–65% of Millennials answered yes!

My generations’ numbers drop drastically. That’s convicting!

Here are the numbers by generation–of those who call themselves “born again”–from 2010 t0 2013.

I love to study the Bible and I love to engage with others in learning. I had been privileged to do this on a regular basis through church ministry and through part-time teaching at a local Bible colleges. Helping individuals learn to feed themselves through their own study of God’s Word is joy-giving to me. Influencing groups to do life and church from a biblically grounded, theologically faithful perspective is my passion.
