How much do people in Britain today know about God, the Bible, or Jesus Christ?

And what about within the church – do evangelicals think clearly about theological issues, or does confusion abound? The State of Theology survey, commissioned by Ligonier Ministries, has uncovered what people in the UK are actually thinking.

Earlier this year, ComRes interviewed over 2,000 adults online across the United Kingdom. ComRes also surveyed 500 practising Christians, from which they obtained a sample of UK evangelicals. Ligonier Ministries President, Chris Larson, said: ‘We did The State of Theology survey to support local churches in the United Kingdom. To our knowledge, it is the most detailed study of its kind to date. It clearly demonstrates the need for more gospel ministry and crystallises the challenges Christians are facing.’
