Study Shows More Protestant Churchgoers Using Faith to Serve Community

A recent study conducted by LifeWay Research shows a significant increase in Protestant church members who actively utilize their spiritual abilities to benefit their communities and serve their faith. According to the research findings, 68% of Protestant churchgoers now report making deliberate efforts to use their talents to “serve God and others.”

This represents a notable jump from 2012, when only 58% of survey participants expressed the same commitment to service-oriented faith practices.

Scott McConnell, a representative from LifeWay, explained the significance of these findings. “Jesus prescribed a life that focuses on loving God and others, and this is actively shown in serving others. Most churchgoers embrace this goal,” McConnell stated.
