Dr. Mel Ming shared some remarkable statistics about the generational breakdown of Christians in the United States. The simple conclusion, the younger you are in our country, the less like you are to be a Christian. Christians according to generations:
- Builders (Age 63 over) 65%
- Boomers (Age – late 40′s – 62) 35%
- Generation X (Age 27-40) 15%
- Millenials (Age 14 – 26) 4%
Another revealing observation, these statistics are virtually reversed in places like South Korean and the parts of South America and Africa where Christianity is thriving.
this is interesting…where did you see/hear these stats?

Dr. Mel Ming shared these at my class at Southeastern two weeks ago. I’ll let you know if I find more info on that.
