Rise of Christianity Among Young People in Western Countries
A recent trend shows that more young people, especially Gen Z, are embracing Christianity in the United States and other western countries. Young men are joining the church while young women are leaving, potentially resulting in a gender gap flip. There has been a slowdown in Christianity's decline in America, with an increase in Bible sales and attendance at Christian events. An animated Biblical film and a popular television series have also seen success in recent times.
