Researcher, Esmé Partridge, was quoted in The Spectator about her research on Gen Z Christians. 30/03/2026
Similar patterns have been seen by Esmé Partridge, a researcher at the Christian think tank Theos who is currently studying new churchgoing patterns among young adults for the Church of England.
“In my research,” said Partridge, “I’ve been able to speak to over thirty young people who have recently started attending church. Naturally there are whole variety of positive influences that have personally led them there – social media, discovering Christian authors like C. S. Lewis, even learning about other world religions – but perhaps the reason these explorations are occurring now rather that say, ten years ago, is because of the absence of hostility towards Christianity in mainstream culture and the breaking down of barriers that once closed it off as an area of spiritual exploration. We’ve moved beyond both the Boomer rebellion against religion and the New Atheism of the early 2010s – today’s climate is one of curiosity and openness.”

What if the so–called “AI doomers” are right? Watch Nathan Mladin’s research seminar for The Faraday Institute. 10/03/2026
What if the so–called “AI doomers” are right, just not in the way they imagine?
In this lecture at The Faraday Institute for Science and Religion, Dr Nathan Mladin suggests AI existential risk discourse is best read as a form of secular apocalyptic literature, and argues that the deeper threat it unveils is anthropological: AI is entrenching a diminished, shrunken view of what it means to be human. We expect more and more of machines and think less and less of ourselves – anthropological pessimism and idolatrous faith in technology feeding off each other in a condition he calls “techno–nihilism”. Reclaiming richer visions of what it means to be human, and to flourish, he argues, is now an urgent task.

Nick Spencer was quoted in the Guardian concerning the CofE response to far–right Christianity. 28/12/2025
In January, C of E bishops will discuss the church’s response to Christian nationalism and the far right at one of their regular meetings. Nick Spencer, a senior fellow at the Christian thinktank Theos, who is embarking on a two–year study of Christian nationalism, said the C of E faced a genuine dilemma. If it embraced rightwing activists proclaiming newfound Christianity, it would “get its head kicked in”; if it slammed the door in their face, it would be “missionally–speaking a catastrophe”.
The church is “damned if they do, damned if they don’t”, he said. “I don’t think it can remain silent, but its response risks underlining the narrative that the C of E is only for the comfortable middle–class.”

That means the [online] space is saturated with people not eligible to preach.” More often than not, that space is filled by the Orthobro.

Theos and YouGov survey reveals that many voters are disconnected from media and local communities. 01/10/2025
A survey has revealed that less than a quarter of us (21%) know the name of a local faith leader. The poll by YouGov, commissioned by Theos, the religion and society think tank, suggests that when it comes to the drivers of social cohesion, everyday people are not turning towards the figures and places at the traditional centre of local communities.
Although most people (58%) said that they can name their local MP, less than a quarter (23%) know the name of their regional or local mayor. Three–quarters (75%) of all respondents said that they couldn’t name a local faith leader of any religion, and only 5% could name a local police officer. Less than half of all respondents have visited a local library in the last year (48%), and more than two–thirds (67%) of adults between 25–64 years of age say they had not visited any place of worship in the past twelve months. In fact more people have visited a local park in the last seven days (36%) than have visited a local place of worship in the last year (30%).
All respondents were far more likely to put their trust in friends and family (84%), and in their neighbours (63%) for accurate information. 86% of those polled said they know their next–door neighbour by name, and almost half (47%) have visited their neighbour’s house in the past twelve months.
When asked which features make them feel most connected to their local community, relationship with neighbours (38%), safety (37%) and visiting public spaces (31%) were top of the list, while shared faith mattered to just 4% of respondents.
Respondents were also asked what contribution faith groups make to local communities. More than a third of those who were polled said that faith communities have no real impact at all on the unemployed (35%), or on local (36%) or regional (38%) government. Only 8% believe that the overall contribution faith groups make to the life of the community is negative, but more than half (55%) say that they don’t know what contribution they make, or that it is neither good nor bad.
The research was conducted in preparation for the annual Theos Lecture at 7pm on Thursday, 9 October. In this year’s lecture, the Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham will discuss the importance of faith–based and other community organisations in fostering hope, health and human connection. And he’ll reveal the critical role they are set to play in the next chapter of English devolution, as Greater Manchester works to deliver support for people in true partnership with the local organisations they know and trust.
Chine McDonald, the Director of Theos, said: “Building strong communities depends on trust, and trust is built on communication. Mayor Andy Burnham believes that people of faith can have a significant role to play in building communities and shaping devolved democracy.
“Indeed, faith groups up and down the country are making a significant contribution in many ways: feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, and helping free people from debt. But my reading of this survey data is that a strikingly high number of local residents are not aware of these contributions. This is particularly pertinent when we are seeing an increase in conversations about the role of religion in shaping politics and the nation. At a time of potential societal fracture, this is an encouragement for faith communities to step up, speak up, and increase their visibility beyond the church walls, showing the difference faith can make to social cohesion and building a better world for all.”

Giles Fraser delves into the moral and theological tensions surrounding immigration, asking whether Christian faith leads to exclusion or radical inclusion.
British politician and prominent catholic Ann Widdecombe opens with a candid reflection on the limits of national capacity and the need for fair rules, citing scripture to support her belief in prioritizing care for one’s family and community. The discussion broadens with insights from Journalist & Historian Tim Stanley, human rights advocate Yasmin Halima, and Theos researcher George Lapshynov, who presents data showing non–practicing Christians are more hostile toward immigration than the general public. The panel explores the biblical imperative to welcome the stranger, the concept of “ordered love” from Saint Augustine, and the practical challenges of balancing compassion with security. Author and activist Onjali Raúf adds a deeply personal lens, highlighting the human cost of displacement and the rhetoric that dehumanizes refugees.
George draws from our Religion Counts and From Strangers to Neighbours research.

Blog, ‘We need to talk about race and assisted dying’, by Chine McDonald was referenced in Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill debate in the House of Lords. 19/09/2025
Baroness Berridge (Con) quoted an extract from blog ‘We need to talk about race and assisted dying’ by Chine McDonald saying:
My Lords, sadness and sympathy are palpable in our inboxes and in this Chamber. Your Lordships’ House is a sobering scene. I begin with what is missing from the Bill—the letter “S”, the plural. As the noble Baroness, Lady Berger, has outlined, there is no mention of family or relatives. Its premise is the western Enlightenment view of the self and individual autonomy, which is alien to parts of the UK, let alone to some of our ethnic minority communities. On the latter, I can put it no better than an article by Chine McDonald, director of Theos, in a post on 26 November last year:
“Many people will be familiar with the southern African term ‘Ubuntu’, which means ‘I am because you are’. In my own community—the Igbo ethnic group of south–eastern Nigeria—there is the concept of the Umunna: the fraternity, the clan or the community … there is a strong sense of existing not as an individual, but knitted into a family … The idea that someone who is facing death might not want to be a burden … is anathema to West African tradition. You can’t be a burden because you are not a separate entity. You’re part of a whole”.

As students receive their A–Level results today, Theos have put together this open letter highlighting the importance of religious education in higher education. 14/08/2025
Many of the students across England and Wales who are receiving their A–level results this week will be looking forward to going on to higher education in September.
However, many HE institutions are reducing staffing levels and ceasing to offer some courses, in an attempt to balance their budgets at a time of financial pressure. This results in a narrowing of the opportunities available to these young people as they take their studies forward.
One of the subject areas that is being hit hardest by these reductions is Theology and Religious Studies. There will soon be only 21 HE institutions in England and Wales that offer an undergraduate degree in Theology and Religious Studies. For comparison, 90 run undergraduate degree courses in History, 80 in Music and 101 in Sociology.
This impacts on student choice, but it also has adverse effects for society. Theology plays a crucial role in the intellectual, ethical and cultural development of communities. It equips people with the tools to engage more thoughtfully with global cultures and traditions and to engage deeply with complex sacred texts. It provides space for interfaith dialogue in an environment where people from different backgrounds (including the non–religious, because Theology and Religious Studies is by no means the preserve of believers), and creates room for students to explore issues of belief together. In an increasingly polarised world, it helps us understand other points of view.
Theological education often leads people into service–oriented careers where they contribute to social cohesion and moral leadership, and strengthen civil society. One such career is teaching. But there are already too few qualified entrants to RE teaching. 51% of RE lessons are taught by teachers whose main specialism is in another subject, and in the 2024–25 academic year, only 20% of new entrants to RE Initial Teacher Training had a degree in Theology and Religious Studies.
Beyond service–oriented careers, Theology & Religious Studies also develops skills in the careful analysis of evidence (ideal for careers in law or criminology), or the art of persuasion and storytelling (ideal for careers in politics, journalism or screenwriting).
The future looks increasingly complex, diverse and pluralistic; local, national and global changes require us to wrestle with moral, ethical and spiritual challenges and ideas well. We owe it to the citizens of tomorrow to equip them with the tools to navigate this future and live together better. We can think of few better tools within our education system than Theology & Religious Studies.
