Why Christian influencers are spreading their faith online
And is Gen Z really having a ‘religious revival’?
There’s a growing trend of young people taking to social media to share their Christian faith with the world. These influencers include Bryce Crawford, Redeemed Zoomer and @BreakingInTheHabit. We chat to Adeline in Australia and IBQuake in Nigeria, who both make Christian content online. We hear why they do it and find out why they think faith-based content is becoming more popular. And Chelsea from the What in the World team explains why we’re seeing more of this content right now.
You might have seen some headlines about Gen-Z being the most Christian generation yet - but is it true? We get the facts from Conrad Hackett at Pew Research Center, a US think tank.
