Barna: Born-agains, Evangelicals... Up.

Barna Survey Reveals Significant Growth in Born Again Population



"The new research found that 45% of all adults meet the criteria that The Barna Group uses to classify people as “born again.” That number is up from 31% in 1983."

[IndyChristian.com note: That number is up from the 40% reflected in last year's report.]

"Evangelicals, who are born again but also possess each of seven core beliefs that mirror those taught in the Bible, represent 9% of the adult public."

[IndyChristian.com note: That number is up from the 7% reflected in last year's report.]

[Full article at Barna.org]

As exciting as this news is, I am also concerned at the variance in polls and the up & down numbers. Not certain how accurate these numbers (and from the other polls) are and not sure if increased numbers are really good news ... Meaning, is it better to have a higher per centage of the nation be evangelical with the state of our culture?
