(Christian Headlines) According to a new survey by the American Bible Society (ABS), evangelical-affiliated churches have more “practicing” Christians than those in other mainline denominations.
The survey, titled “The Bible in the American Church,” was released last Thursday as part of ABS’ seventh chapter of its 11th annual State of the Bible report.
According to The Christian Post, the chapter distinguishes between practicing Christians and self-identified Christians, defining practicing Christians as those who attend religious services “at least once a month” and “strongly” agree that their faith is “very important in their lives.” Practicing Christians, according to the ABS, have also “incorporated the faith into their life and routine in a transformative way.”
