“If spiritual revival has occurred among any group of people in the United States in the past decade, it is undeniably among Asians,” says a report on U.S. religious trends by the nondenominational Barna Research Group.
In a February poll, 27 percent of Asian-Americans told Barna they had made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ that remained important and they expect to reach heaven because they confessed their sins and accepted Christ as their savior. That’s how Barna defines “born-again” commitment. The poll of 1,002 adults had a 3 percent sampling error
In a 1991 poll, only 5 percent of Asian-Americans said this.
In another shift, 25 percent of born-again adults came from households earning $60,000 or more, compared with 13 percent in 1991.
