Half of millennial Christians say it\u2019s wrong to evangelize. This was the headline from CT\u2019s report from new Barna Group research examining the perspectives of millennials, Gen-X, boomer, and elder practicing Christians on sharing their faith. (Note: Barna defines \u201cpracticing Christians\u201d as churchgoers who consider religion an important part of their lives.) More than 90 percent of practicing Christians of all generations agreed somewhat or strongly that \u201cpart of my faith means being a witness about Jesus\u201d and \u201cthe best thing that could ever happen to someone is for them to come to know Jesus.\u201d Millennials were more likely than any other age group to say that they were gifted at sharing their faith with other people. In fact, 73 percent said they were compared to 56 percent of elders, who were the least secure about their ability. But controversially\u2014at least to CT\u2019s Twitter followers\u201447 percent of millennials said it was wrong to share one\u2019s personal beliefs with someone of a different faith in hopes that they will one day share the same faith. What should we make of these numbers? Alpha USA executive director Craig Springer joined digital media producer Morgan Lee and editor in chief Mark Galli to discuss what these figures really mean, why the best way to do evangelism may just be asking questions, and why Christian unity is a good form of Christian witness.\nLearn more about your ad choices.
