Why Gen Z is flocking to strong religion

For decades, religious affiliation across the West had been in free-fall. However, recent developments suggest that post-pandemic, Gen Z is leading the charge to amend things. According to a recent report from the Bible Society, 16% of 18–24 year olds in the United Kingdom now attend church monthly — a notable rise from just 4% in 2019. These churchgoers feel less depressed, closer to their local community, and have deeper hope for the future.

The kids may just be alright yet.
