Contrary to popular opinion, religiosity is not on the decline in the United States but enjoys “persistent and exceptional intensity,” according to groundbreaking new research.

In an analysis of recent scholarship, Glenn T. Stanton notes that while moderate religion is indeed slipping in the United States, intense religious belief and practice, especially among Christians, is holding strong and even increasing.

  1. I proudly attend the Uprising in Hebron and this is an example of a church that has an intense belief system. The Gospel is preached there, Bill Cropper is an example of a sinner saved by the grace of Jesus. Friday night Thrive is a blessing in my life. We all to thank God that our Mayor Jake Day attends there. If Jim Ireton, who spits in God's face with his homosexuality had gone to a church like that maybe Salisbury
    would not be in as bad as shape as it is now.
