A new openness to searching for purpose and meaning. Are we post Christian or post secular? - with Mark McCrindle
The new McCrindle report ‘An undercurrent of faith’ says:
Those turning to Christian faith are not who we might expect - it’s especially older people, the recently widowed and recently separated or divorced.
The move is most on away from Christian identity in outer suburbia and regional areas.
Australians are still turning to Christianity in large numbers, despite a decline in Christian affiliation.
While 85,000 15-24 year olds have moved towards Christianity in the last five years, that’s dramatically down on a decade ago
Founder and Principle of McCrindle research, Mark McCrindle, says his report shows a new search for purpose and meaning and asks is “Australia Post Christian or are we now Post Secular?”
Plus we compare the findings of the national McCrindle report with the recent Sydney Anglican report on Church attendance.
