Description
"Narratives about Latter-day Saint youth and young adults losing faith in droves are examined in the context of data from the longitudinal National Study of Youth and Religion and other studies. These narratives are largely unsupported by the data and overemphasize the role that doubt plays in the loss of faith by ignoring other factors. Weekly church attendance, daily prayer, frequent scripture study, and avoiding sexual activity outside of marriage make a difference in maintaining and preserving faith"--
