Growing Majority Sees Revival
Nearly 3 in 10 U.S. adults (~29%) believe a spiritual revival is likely to happen in the next 12 months – rising to ~38% among Gen Z.
Seeking Purpose and Prayer
Americans anticipating a revival cite a surge in prayer and the younger generation's quest for meaning as the primary sings of a coming move.
Contrasting Catalysts
Younger adults view revival as an answer to mental health and personal disruption, while Boomers see it through the lens of youth-led spiritual movements.
Barna's most recent data conservatively shows that 29 percent of all U.S. adults say a revival is at least “probably” coming in the next 12 months. That figure rises to 38 percent among Gen Z, while at least one in four Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers hold the same expectation.
