Belief dictates behavior, but according to Barna Research, less than 1 in 5 Christians have even a basic biblical worldview. The stats get worse in younger generations as less than 1 in 100 college-age Christians hold a basic biblical worldview while more than 6 in 10 of them will leave the faith permanently.
But the accelerating decline of religion has produced a dramatic increase of those who identity as "spiritual, but not religious" as distrust in institutions does not equate to disinterest in spirituality. With so many seeking truth, meaning, and wisdom, mPerspective's mission is to reexamine the claims of conflicting worldviews and compare and contrast them with a fresh, evidence-based approach.
