It\u2019s a simple demographic concept: older people die and are replaced by younger ones who age into adulthood. The younger cohort has a different composition than the grandparents they replace. This is how the United States is rapidly moving toward a future in which a majority of its residents will not be white. The same process is likely happening in your church, too. One funeral every few weeks or months doesn\u2019t seem like much, but look back over the last couple of years and you\u2019ll see those numbers add up. The empty seats on Sunday morning start to multiply unless a comparable number of baptisms offsets those funerals. That\u2019s why understanding the religious composition of young adults is so important. Fortunately, we have a great way to assess that. The \u201cgold standard\u201d dataset\u2014the General Social Survey\u2014just released its newest wave of data from 2024. This gives us the best opportunity yet to glimpse what the future of American Christianity might look like."}
