Publisher Description

What if all the bad news you've been hearing about Christians isn't true? Here are some facts that may surprise you: Evangelicals are more respected by society today than they were 20 years ago. Divorce rates of Christian couples are lower than those of nonbelievers. The percentage of young people who attend church has held steady over the past 20 years. All these statements are true, yet we've been told the opposite time and time again. Why is the church being misled? And what is the true state of Christianity in America today?

Sociologist Brad Wright shatters popular myths by sifting through the best available data. He reveals how Christians are doing when it comes to everything from marriage and morality to church growth and public perception. While not all the news is good, it turns out there is a wealth of encouraging information that we're not being told. Get the truth behind the statistics you've been hearing and how the numbers are being manipulated, and discover what is really happening in American Christianity.

"Really good in depth statistical analysis of modern surveys about religion, esp Christianity. Should be must reading for anyone who chooses to quote some of the surveys that spread mis-information around."

    " I borrow my borther's copy of the book and skimmed it quicly. I think it's trying to be the Christian version of Freakonomics. It reinterprets statistics. Lots of statistics and graphs. "

    " Great book, clearly shows you how bad statistics abound in the church and how that hinders the churches mission. "

    " Written by a sociologist, this book is mostly a compendium of statistics on various aspects that define Christian life in America. "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " Interesting refutation of many of the claims of sociologists about Christianity, although a lot of the data gets a little monotonous and some of his conclusions seem a little suspect as well. Worth the read, but nothing earth-shattering here. "

    " In some ways, a good "statistics for dummies" primer about the value and limitations of social statistics and demographic data and about the value of thinking clearly and critically. "
