The numbers donโt lie, and according to new research by Bible Society and YouGov the numbers are up, from 8% of adults in 2018 to 12% in 2024.
That means for every two people in England and Wales who went to church, back in 2018, there are now three.
That 50% growth figure is the overall average. Young adults in particular are attending church more than they have in a long time. Compared to 2018, four times as many under-25s attend church. And the percentage of young men in church has shot up from 4% to 21% far above the average.
As the old certainties crumble, the search for meaning intensifies. The numbers donโt lie.
