A 2025 study from the Family Research Council and Dr. George Barna on churchgoing adults reveals an abiding interest in understanding more about religious freedom and issues on sexuality, abortion, euthanasia, and social and political responsibility. Some results from the study are encouraging; others, such as views on abortion, are discouraging. All of the research is a must-read for pastors and leaders!
