We were interested to know how the faith journeys of older people compared to those of the younger generation. It is relatively unusual for people to come to faith in later life, but of the 280 who completed the Finding Jesus survey, 25 were ages 65 or above (including five who were 75+). Although the sample is small, it still gives a useful glimpse into the priorities and experiences of people who come to faith later in life.
This document is a supplement to the main Finding Jesus report. It won’t repeat everything in that. Instead, it contains some of the variations that emerged from responses given by these older participants. It highlights some interesting patterns that those ministering to that age group might like to consider.
