New research on key belief blockers and Australian's views on faith, Christianity and God has been launched in Sydney as a 'gift to Australian churches'.
Olive Tree Media, run by Gymea Baptist Pastor Karl Faase, commissioned McCrindle Research to conduct an online survey and focus groups on a national sample, across Generations Y and X, as well as baby boomers.
The findings showed that 4 in 10 Australians consider themselves as Christian, identifying as Catholic, Orthodox, Protestant or Evangelical. 1 in 5 indicated that whilst they were spiritual, they were not religious. Furthermore, 3 in 10 did not identify with any religion or spiritual belief. Overall, 1 in 2 Australians do not identify with a religion. Of the religious, many were not active with over half indicating that they were not at all active in practising religion, never worshipping as part of a group. To read more, click here.
