Younger “committed Christians” are the most generous of all, it says. The 6004 people surveyed online last July are divided into four groups, of whom 1356 “committed Christians” both attend church and read the Bible at least once a week. The research found that the “committed Christians” in the 18-34 age bracket gave the highest proportion of their income, at 11 per cent. The average monthly giving for all the Christians had decreased slightly since last year, standing at £116. Of that sum, £42 went to churches, £30 to Christian charities, £19 to Christian workers, and £25 to secular charities.
