"If you went back 100 years in North America, there would have been a consensus that God is the God in the Bible. We can't assume this any longer. We no longer have a home-field advantage as Christians in this culture. We think religion is a topic that is off-limits in polite conversation, but unchurched people say they would enjoy conversations about spiritual matters."

The Christian Post reports that in a recent LifeWay Research study of 1,402 "unchurched" adults, 78 percent said they would be willing to listen to someone discuss their Christianity, even if they hold negative views of the church.

The report noted other more predictable outcomes stemming from an ignorance of Christianity brought on, in part, by faulty information and opinions gleaned from various media sources which tend to homogenize all religions.

LifeWay Research director Ed Stetzer said, "If you went back 100 years in North America, there would have been a consensus that God is the God in the Bible. We can't assume this any longer. We no longer have a home-field advantage as Christians in this culture."

Also revealed in the survey: A majority (89 percent) of the unchurched have at least one close friend who is Christian, and 78 percent of adults 30 years and older said they would enjoy an honest conversation with a friend about religious and spiritual beliefs, even if they disagreed with the friend.

"We think religion is a topic that is off-limits in polite conversation, but unchurched people say they would enjoy conversations about spiritual matters," Stetzer noted.
