GEN Z IS SEARCHING AND THEY ARE FINDING GOD I love this story so much. Today at 12:30 I will talk to Associate Editor John Hirschauer from City Journal about this story he did on Gen Z returning to church. I love this part especially:
Yet these cultural losses may have laid the groundwork for a revival. Public Christianity in the United States receded in part because a rising counterculture successfully challenged its restrictions on individual conduct. Advocates of cultural liberalization gained support by portraying mid-century Christian institutions as rigid and outdated. But today, that once-rebellious counterculture dominates the spaces that Americans inhabit—schools, workplaces, and popular media. And young people, always drawn to rebellion, appear to be pushing back. Many are rejecting a culture that exalts personal autonomy and denigrates self-sacrifice. Perhaps as a result, a surprising number of young adults—who might otherwise have left religion at even higher rates than their parents did—are, for the first time in decades, choosing to stay.
I love that turning to God can be an act of rebellion and an act of salvation.
