Are more people open to the gospel than we think? A new report suggests

 they are. After a couple of years like no other, it’s time for the Church to

Yesterday, a new report on “the state of faith and perceptions of Jesus in 

the UK” was published. Perhaps the results of Talking Jesus will surprise you.

• 45 percent of the UK population believe in the resurrection
• One in three non-Christians, after a conversation with a Christian, want 
• to know more about Jesus Christ
• 20 per cent of the UK population believe that Jesus is God

I wonder how you’re reacting to that. A cynical “No chance, mate!” or a

I have to say, while samples don’t always give the full picture - as anyone
