Region of the Country
Differences (modified):
Some slight modifications for the overall percentages are
reported here in that:
-
13% were from the
northeast
-
5% from
mid-Atlantic
-
9% from the south
-
32% from the
mid-west
-
3% from central
plains
-
7%
from mountains
-
25% from the west coast
-
Each of the differences cited above were modified slightly in the
following ways, and an additional effect was found for inviting
activities:
-
Those from the south attend church more frequently than those from
the northeast, midwest, mid-atlantic, and central plains regions of the
country (slightly less than a few times/week); also, those from the west
coast attend more frequently than those from both northeast and midwest
regions of the country (less than a few times/week)
-
Those from the west coast, as well as those from the south, hang
out with church friends more frequently than those from the northeast
region of the country (slightly more than a few times/week)
-
Those from the northeast hang out with non-Christian friends more
frequently than only those from the south (few times/week)
-
Those from the south invite non-Christians to activities to learn
about Jesus more frequently than those from the midwest (slightly more
than once/month)
-
Those from the south pray when friends ask Jesus into their lives
more frequently than those from the both the midwest and west coast
regions of the country (more than seldom happens)
