The survey, conducted in December of 2022, found that about one-third of respondents believe in God, which is up from the one-quarter who reported believing in God in 2021.<\/p>\n<p>This marks a significant shift in the beliefs of young adults, who are often characterized as being less religious and more secular than previous generations. The Springtide Research Institute, a nonpartisan nonprofit, conducts an annual report on the state of religion and youth in America. This year&#8217;s report shows that the trend toward belief in God is gaining momentum among young people.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Our research was recently featured in an article published by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WSJ?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@WSJ<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Find out more on how the pandemic may have impacted young people&#39;s belief in the existence of a higher power, here:<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/LH9XI0f8Yq\">https:\/\/t.co\/LH9XI0f8Yq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Springtide Research Institute (@WeAreSpringtide) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/WeAreSpringtide\/status\/1650536329439064066?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 24, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p> <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script> <\/p>\n<p>The report also reveals that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-12007577\/Gen-Z-NOT-turning-away-God-young-adults-say-believe-higher-power.html\">young adults who identify as religious<\/a> are more likely to report higher levels of happiness and well-being than those who do not.
