Trends in Evangelicalism

There has been a noticeable trend of younger generations moving away from evangelicalism, which began with Generation X and continues with millennials and Zoomers. Many individuals express dissatisfaction with evangelicalism's lack of rigorous theology, which often emphasizes personal conversion experiences over substantial intellectual engagement. This shift occurs as cultural challenges become more prevalent, leading individuals to seek answers that evangelicalism appears unable to provide. Such a retreat from intellectual rigor fosters a disconnect for younger people seeking a faith that grapples meaningfully with contemporary issues.
