What an amazing sight! Listen to the worship in the centre of London. Who would have thought this could happen, I certainly did not. Thank you Lord that you are moving in the UK. May these people realise that they need to be disciples in their neighbourhoods. Please pray for our brothers and sisters that turned out for this great occasion. Pray for the Muslims in London that saw this worship session and that this video gets wide circulation.

CHARLIE KIRK EFFECT IN AUSTRALIA
Matt Canavan, Nationals Senator for Queensland talks good sense about what Australia needs to do to make a comeback. We have all that we need in terms of resources but we have voted in a socialist government that is committed to Net Zero emissions in an absurd time frame.
I was surprised to hear him talk about Charlie Kirk and the impact for good his assassination is having worldwide, and even here in Australia.
I am now convinced that God is working in the hearts of the young, I have done many posts on young people turning to God particularly on university campuses in the USA, but also UK and Australia: 1. Revival in the USA is a Reality, 10th April, 2025, 2. Is America on the Cusp of a Spiritual Awakening, 17th April, 2025, 3. Over 7,750 Baptised at Huntington Beach, 12th May, 2025, 4.

STANDING FOR CHRIST IN THE UK
Recent data suggests a potential resurgence of Christian faith and engagement in the UK, particularly among young men, with increased church attendance and Bible study reported by organizations like the Bible Society and in various news outlets. This trend is marked by large public gatherings, where thousands of Christians have come together to pray and declare their faith. While scepticism about a full revival exists, these indicators point to a possible shift, with some observers noting a “remarkable spiritual shift” and a renewed desire for discipleship among Britons. Check out my recent post on Gen Z – The Revival Generation. It reports similar findings in the USA. The same goes for Australia so God is definitely reaching out to the youth across the world. He is a wonderful loving God.
One of the really interesting stats in the Bible Society report was when they asked non-churchgoers “would they go to church if they were invited by a friend or family member?” 31%, just under a third, said they would, which is pretty amazing. And that rose a little bit to 34% of 18 to 24 year olds who were non-churchgoers. So they saw this growth, but it’s not a ceiling. And when we think about the importance of friendships and relationships to people exploring faith, that’s a really interesting place to begin. So let’s start with family, friends and neighbours.
They saw that two thirds of the population said they’d be happy for a Christian friend to pray for them. And just over a quarter said they’d be interested in learning more about the Bible. And that’s just so much bigger than the number who are regularly in church, which even in this new data set is only 12%. So that interest is far greater than those who are currently practicing.
One of the big themes that comes through is just how important relationships and friendships are. They asked people to agree or disagree with a statement around whether they would read the Bible if a friend or family recommended it to them versus if a philosopher or thinker, or public figure recommended it to them. And in general the agreement rate is far higher if friends or family recommended it rather than public thinkers. So certainly people like Charlie Kirk and Jordan Peterson are important, I don’t think there’s any question on that, but really what makes people open to trying new things does seem to be at the much more personal and local level. So yes, we would encourage everyone to see openness as something for them to explore and think about.
The video shows an event held by Daniel Chand, an evangelist, pastor, author and the founder of Walking Like Jesus Ministries. He has led hundreds of thousands of people to salvation through his campaigns, Tent Revivals and international open-air crusades. After graduating from Reinhard Bonnke’s school of evangelism in 2013, Daniel went on to launch Walking Like Jesus Ministries – a ministry which conducts some of the largest gospel campaigns in the UK annually, and hosts multiple weekly television programmes on TBN UK including, Let’s Talk Revival and Walking Like Jesus.
UK – A SHIFTING FROM SHRINKING TO A GROWING CHURCH
Based on The Quiet Revival report by the UK Bible Society, Glen Scrivener reports that the church is growing across age and ethnic groups. Nominalism is shrinking, and church engagement is growing, which is encouraging. A shift from a secular myth to religious reality is real in the UK.
Monthly church attendance in England and Wales has increased by over 50 per cent in just six years, according to a newly released report by the Bible Society UK.
The Quiet Revival report, drawing on nationally representative YouGov surveys from 2018 and 2024, reveals that 12 per cent of adults in England and Wales now attend church at least once a month — up from 8 per cent in 2018.
While the percentage shift may seem modest, it represents a striking increase in real terms: from 3.7 million to 5.8 million regular churchgoers over just six years, or a 50 per cent increase.
Significantly, the fastest growth has taken place among 18 to 24-year-olds. In 2018, only 4 per cent in this age group reported monthly church attendance. That figure has now quadrupled to 16 per cent.
Young men have led the surge. One in five men aged 18 to 24 — or 21 per cent of their entire cohort across England and Wales — now report regular church attendance. The researchers suggested that this revival may be linked to a changing public tone around Christianity. While older generations may have associated faith with social pressure or institutionalism, young adults are encountering it as a source of hope, meaning, and belonging.
Christianity is now being seen — at least by some — as a viable response to loneliness, anxiety, and a society searching for purpose. “Having a Christian faith is again being normalised and is arguably even culturally attractive,” the report concludes.
The latest news from Britain correlates closely with similar findings in the United States. After decades of decline, Christianity’s retreat in America has stabilised, with a surprising resurgence among young conservative men, according to major Pew survey showing Christian identity holding steady since 2019.
Arguably, the most compelling insight from the report is that British Christianity is not only expanding in reach, but also deepening in conviction. Christian faith is increasingly being chosen rather than inherited, marking a shift from nominal Christianity to intentional belief and practice.
Among churchgoers, 67 per cent read the Bible weekly outside of church services — up from 54 per cent in 2018. Young Christians are particularly engaged, with high rates of Bible reading, prayer, and curiosity about Scripture.
“These are not passive believers,” the report notes. “They are committed, spiritually active, and often vocal about their faith.”
