    Bonus Ep: The 'Quiet Revival' has been withdrawn... but the Rebirth isn't dead!

    02/04/2026 | 12 mins.
    The UK Bible Society have withdrawn their widely-publicised 'Quiet Revival' report after it emerged that the survey, conducted by YouGov, was contaminated by bogus respondents.

    In this bonus episode Justin responds to the news, asks what lessons can be learned, and looks at a variety of other data that still point to the fact a 'rebirth' is underway.

    Look out for a deep dive on this story in Season 3 of The Surprising Rebirth Of Belief in God podcast, coming later in the year.
