I heard recently that there was an article in USA Today that pointed out the stats on giving/helping/volunteerism between church goers vs. non-church goers.
As I have posted in the past, one of the most common complaints from non-Christians against Christians is: Those Christians are such hypocrites.
This recent article stated (I have not found the exact numbers but the article was quoted as saying this) that 70% of regular church goers give back their time to help others and that they have INCREASED (by 8%) their volunteerism since the economic downturn to help the poor and needy. On the other hand, only 30% or less of non-church goers give back with their charitable time, and this group has DECREASED (by 8%) their volunteerism since the economic downturn. (please leave comment or email us if you know the exact reference)
