As someone part of gen z, I get discouraged at times seeing the things my generation does, and that it is considered the generation who believes in God the least. This video gave me much needed encouragement. Y’all don’t give up on gen z. Let’s keep praying and reaching out to them!
Amen! We often see God’s biggest moves in what we as humans write off or call impossible 🙏🏼 We will keep asking!
I am not seeing that Gen z is least religious. I’ve seen a number of surveys that it’s the most conservative and religious.
I often get embarrassed at Walmart! I'm so embarrassed of this generation!!!
@@juliemesser2053 I often feel that way too, but we can lead by example. And if the person who commented above you is right, then it’s not as bad as it seems! I’ve been reminding myself of the story in the Bible where Elijah hears Gods whisper on the mountain, and He tells him there are more people on His side than Elijah realizes. Thats been helping me have a better perspective on things!
Don’t be discouraged! While a lot of people are leaving the faith, I believe that God is raising up a new generation. We are hungry for something that the world can’t give
Proverbs 22:6 KJV
Train up a child in the way he should go: And when he is old, he will not depart from it.
I’m 21 in college. The Lord is working in my generation. PLEASE keep praying 🫡
I think 2020 was a pivotal year for gen z as far as revival in my opinion
Jesus came into my life in 2020 😉, he snatch me outta the world quickly , he caught me lacking 💀
2020 did a lot. It was where I began to notice biases in the media and that led me back to Jesus
I was saved in 2020 it was my darkest moments and Jesus save my life ❤
I was already Christian, but in 2020 I had a personal revival and started to see miracles all glory to God!
@@batsquad2046praise God 😭😭 I was so tempted to back slide at times but god was so faithful
This generation (gen z) is about to turn into a bunch of evangelists. I’m excited to see these stats change!!!
Gen z here. Started reading my Bible my grandmother gave me in 2020-ish, was saved in December 2021 🙌. Idk what prompted it, but I always wondered if it was unconscious uncertainty regarding 2020
very based. Praise God!
Glad you joined the heavenly family back in 2021! I pray you continue to be strengthened in your faith. God bless you!
🎉 Thank you for sharing this!
As a gen z.... finally guys! Ive been waiting for so long..I am not alone anymoreee xD
Jesus is cool. He will always be cool.
He’s the only person who understands the strange things I say
here in northern England my local church has 400 people every sunday, all ages, all walks of life, all nationalities. Almost divided evenly throughout all demographics
We now have double services because we run out of chairs.
Chinese and african churches in the area come in close at a typical 150-250 (specific language churches)
Cant confirm the numbers of the rest but there's maybe 30 other churches in the city open for services
My local church grew when we moved 13 years back, from a dominantly elderly church to now mostly young families and about 50 children 0-7. I'm leading a girl youth group, age 11-12, and in two years, we are going from an average of 6-10 girls to >20.
We always have had two services in our tradition, the afternoon one was mostly elderly but is now more often well attended by the youth.
It's the same for Raleigh, NC. Lot's of people move from all over the US wanting to have better environments for their family.
*For anyone who wants to know this is what the rest of the article said on Daily Wire:*
A quick look at the comments casts doubt on the idea that the post might just be a joke.
The video has a whopping 385,000 likes and more than 8,000 comments, most of which are from other Zoomers saying they too have wandered into churches recently.
“For real. I went to a church last week for the first time in my life. I get it now,” someone wrote.
“No bc low-key this,” wrote another. (That means “I kind of identify with this,” in Gen Z speak for those of you who are not chronically online.)
“The way I went from basically atheist to praying every day and going to church w my family now,” posted another.
“Nah bc I randomly started praying consistently,” another wrote.
“So relatable I left the church at 15 and now I’m back as an adult because I’m so scared of life,” one girl wrote.
Two commenters said they were just recently crying and looking up nearby churches. Others expressed relief that they were not alone in their desire to become religious.
“This wasn’t only me oh my gosh?? I became religious this year and go to church every week. Loving it,” someone wrote.
“Ok so it’s not just me? I literally started the process of becoming catholic,” someone wrote.
“So is this a collective thing? Cus it’s so bad that I even went to church yesterday, I need a reason to keep going on life,” someone wrote.
At least four people commented that they recently got baptized. Several said they recently returned to the Catholic Church, and one said they “literally went to confession the other day.”
Other commenters wrote that they were thinking of going to church for “some sort of direction in my life,” and one girl said a “breakup pushed me to church.”
At one point, the girl who posted the video commented, “Imma keep showing up.”
Comments like this, written in telltale Zoomer lingo, go on and on. Just when you think the hate comments are around the corner, more Zoomers are posting that they went to church.
A few other TikToks show young people saying the same thing - that they started going to church last year, although those videos got fewer views.
On paper, Gen Z is the least religious generation. Nearly half, 49% of Zoomers say they do not have a religious affiliation, according to a 2022 YouGov survey.
However, about a year ago another survey noted a surprising increase in young people saying they believe in God. About a third of people age 18 to 25 say they believe, more than doubt, the existence of a higher power, according to a survey from the Springtide Research Institute. That’s up from only about a quarter of young people in 2021.
While belief in God does not necessarily translate to joining organized religion, some Zoomers commented on TikTok that they were drawn to church for the “peace and quiet.”
Back in April, a Los Angeles rabbi told the Wall Street Journal that more young adults were showing up to Friday night services at the synagogue.
In many more traditional Catholic parishes, the churches are filled with young people, including older Gen Z-ers who are already young parents with small children themselves.
Another driving force in these young people’s turn to religion could be Gen Z’s rampant anxiety.
More than 40% of 18 to 26-year-olds are diagnosed with a mental health condition, and 90% of the time it’s anxiety, according to a survey by Harmony Healthcare IT.
The pandemic sent the most anxious generation’s mental health further into a tailspin, isolating them and intensifying worries about finances and their loved ones.
In response to life’s stressors, some Zoomers say they are searching for relief in something beyond themselves and that faith provides an answer.
Belief in God “gives you a reason for living and some hope,” an Iowa college student told the Journal last year. Some of the TikTok commenters said they ended up in church for this reason as well.
Whatever the reason Gen Z-ers are ending up in church, clearly the next generation has the same age-old longing for peace, meaning, and truth.
Pray for repentance and faith of the nation and the world.
PLEASE Lord Jesus, let this be a true revival to your church! Let this country on whole come back to you! break our hearts of stone and bring us sanity!
I don't listen to stats re church attendance because just like homeschooling, home churches are growing fast. I think homechurch is the future for many reasons
Absolutely not. How many more denominations is it going to take before Protestants realize personal interpretation does not work?
Orthodoxy or catholicism are the only ways to go and have the only historical claims.
I can see that. Please Elaborate
Is home church just parents and children? Also why do you think home church is the future?
@@newbee2262Well if we are talk parents and children, then yes...
In order to children to retain the religion you need to live it and teach them how to live the religion. Not just show up once a week.
@@KillerofGods understood. family revival
Churches need to instruct their families to disciple their children and fathers to be deacons of their homes.
I’m a millennial that came back to church in August 2023
Such good news! We need good news. There's a lot of darkness out there.
Gathering his people, time is running out.
I'm 25 and I came to Christ when I was 19, at first it was more for pragmatic political reasons seeing as monogamy and the nuclear family are the bedrock of society. But as I've gotten older and done tons of research into theology and philosophy I've come to the conclusion that atheism is just an incoherent ideology and leads to absurdity and nihilism if followed to its logical conclusion. Buddhism, Hinduism, paganism, new age and Islam all fall apart after a certain point. Christianity is the only coherent religion that exists. Also, it's pretty hard to be an atheist after you've seen and been attacked by demons, following Christ was the only real choice left on the table.
im 24 and I just came to christ this past year, I wish I had gotten into god when I was 19 like you, that would have saved so much wasted time haha. But god bless none the less
Y’all crack me up - like making an article review off the study’s abstract. Love you gents!
I am a gen z Christian ✝️
Also, just a slight correction, the Silent Generation was born between the late 20s and mid 40s. They didn't go to war during WW2, but they experienced their fathers going off to war, and they probably fought in Korea and maybe even Vietnam.
I was at Passion 2024! There is hope for gen Z!
Gen Z is sick of the lies of the world, so the only option is to turn to God. We've become tired of living "our truth" and instead we want to live "The Truth"
We make so many mistakes and suffer in order to realize what we needed was already in us to begin with.
Silent generation is before baby boomers but they have the same parents as baby boomers, born during the war years or just before, so they were not old enough to serve. So early 1940's or late 1930's. The WWII generation is called the greatest generation.
Preach it brother
GenZ Christians are very Progressive Christian and Lgbtq accepting and more liberal. Let’s hope the conservative church are ready to coexist with them.
more people are leaving then joining.
A few things to think about:
-the reason why older generations are more religious isn't because people get spiritually awakened as they get older, most of the people were born in a time where Christianity was more pervasive and widely accepted as the default religion, also the religious market wasn't as diverse as it is way back then.
-Gen Z is the most stressed generation not only because of a lack of God, but because were the most emotionally intelligent generation which has its pros and cons (were extremely empathic sometimes to a fault), also were the first generation to really experience a fraction of God's omnipotence with access to all the world problems and we can't really do much about it , for now at least which makes us feel powerless.
- The North American church's revival will mostly happen through immigration because most of the world's Christians live outside of North America and Europe. So dont be worried , the Christian numbers across generations will surge back up as more Christian immigrants from majority Christian nations like Nigeria, Brazil , DR Congo , Phillipines etc reach American shores
It’s the greatest generation who fought in WW2 the silent generation was from 1930-1944 then boomers after 1945 to 1963 then gen x till 1978 then millennials and so on
My take is with all the indoctrination and " goofy" teachings these kids are hearing, add in youthful exuberance and you get somebody who is willing to take on the world with the spiritual equivalence of a takeout food wooden knife. Once they start to do battle with the world, they quickly realize they need a sword and turn back to God and his scriptures.
😮
How is this premiering now but I watched this yesterday
Yesterday it was live streamed and they edit and post for people who weren’t watching it live.
I think the generation is. I don't know what generation I am maybe x may be after that
I grew up thinking I had no future. Especially living in california there was nothing poverty
In fact I was so concerned about it. I wound up moving to taiwan for twenty years
I just didn't think that there would be a future for me here.
True, I want to be a missionary, but like most generations. After me they've always been told that there's no future.
Cost of living is too high. Can you be rented in apartment
I went to church because I literally thought I had no f It didn't help but I have four learning disabilities cptsd and mild cerbral palsy
I moved back to California 6 months ago. And I can see why people here stressed
I can honestly see why young people feel hopeless.
The realizing they don't have To accomplish the american dream.
I don't know if the american dream ever existed even in my time.
Yeah I believe they are flooding to the church because they don't know what to do
They’re going going back back to churchy churchy
I haven't been to church in 20 years and ain't planning to go back
You'll be back soon.
@@boison.a hell no🤣
@@johnthomas4427He’s right. You’ll either be back or wished you’d be back. It’s not the church you need, yet. It’s Jesus you haven’t met. Satan and his minions aka demons are busy. You’re going to need Someone greater than you AND greater than them to fight your battles. No soldier wins a war solo.
I no see nuthin men😅
A revival is coming soon! People are now waking up and are tired of the lies of other religions like Islam, Mormonism, jehovah witnesses, and atheism. People seek the truth and when they seek it and search with an open heart and understanding then they will find Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life.
No, they're not 😂
I am a Gen Z Christian
