Less Than 1/5 of Americans Believe Life’s Purpose Is Knowing, Loving God, Survey Finds

May 11, 2020 by Staff

(Christian Headlines) A new survey found that less than 1/5 of Americans believe life’s purpose is knowing and loving God.

According to the American Worldview Inventory from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University, the survey revealed that Americans largely do not believe in a life spent serving God.

The survey included 2,000 American respondents polled both via phone and online, The Christian Post reports.

The data showed that 86 percent of Americans believe in a “universal, shared purpose” of human life, and 66 percent said they believe they have a “unique, God-given calling or purpose.”

Only 18 percent said the universal purpose is “knowing, loving and serving God.”
