Fresh data from Barna’s State of the Church project show that young men, particularly from Generation Z and the Millennial cohort, are driving a quiet revival of faith in the United States. Since 2019, the proportion of Gen Z men who say they have made a personal commitment to follow Jesus has risen by 15 per cent, while Millennial men have increased by 19 per cent. However, the figures reveal the widest recorded gender gap in church engagement in twenty-five years. As of 2025, 43 per cent of men report attending church weekly, compared with 36 per cent of women.
