Add a sense of purpose in life to the roster of things Americans lost during the multi-year COVID-19 pandemic, a new survey revealed Thursday.
Findings from the American Worldview Inventory 2023, released by Arizona Christian University’s Cultural Research Center, showed “a staggering” 20-point drop in adults “who believe they have a unique, God given calling or purpose.”
The number of adults overall who identify as Christian fell from 72% in 2020 to 68% this year, the survey indicated. Those who identify as “born-again Christians,” who report a personal experience of coming to faith in Christ, also demonstrated changes in attitudes both good and bad, the survey indicated.
George Barna, a longtime Christian pollster who now directs research activities at the Cultural Research Center, said the findings demonstrate the pandemic’s impact on personal identity.
