Survey: Half of Churchgoers Say Most People Know They’re Christian

A new survey from LifeWay Research posed a straightforward but thought-provoking question to Protestant churchgoers: do the people around you know that you are a Christian?

The results show a divided picture. Only 53% of respondents said that most people in their lives are aware of their faith in Christ, while 30% said that most people in their circle do not know they are believers.

Despite that gap, the survey found that the majority of Christians feel ready and willing to speak up about their beliefs. A full 65% of those surveyed said they would have no hesitation in letting a non-Christian know that they follow the Christian faith.
