Faith is experiencing an extraordinary resurgence across the globe, defying predictions of religion's decline in modern society. From the shores of California to university campuses in the United Kingdom, we're witnessing what many are calling the early stages of a new Great Awakening.

The evidence is compelling and widespread. At Huntington Beach, 7,750 people participated in what organizers called the largest single-day baptism event in American history. Among them was a 71-year-old woman who finally took the plunge after four decades of contemplation – a powerful reminder that spiritual transformation knows no age limit.

Meanwhile, across the Atlantic, church attendance among British young adults has quadrupled in just six years. When 2,000 young people packed a church in London for an all-night prayer gathering, it became clear that what researchers are calling a "quiet revival" is gaining momentum. This spiritual shift isn't happening in isolation from cultural tensions but alongside them – much like America's historical Great Awakenings which unfolded during periods of significant societal conflict.

Even in unexpected places, change is happening. Washington State reduced abortion funding by 55% – its largest cut ever. The Merchant Marine Academy restored a massive painting of Jesus after it had been relegated to storage following complaints. When the decision was announced, midshipmen "lost their minds" with joy, according to officials.

The political landscape reflects this shift as well. Despite mainstream media narratives, 92% of Trump voters remain satisfied with their choice. This disconnect has led some polling organizations to seek out obscure new pollsters rather than citing the historically accurate ones whose findings contradict preferred storylines.

What makes these developments particularly meaningful is their organic nature – these aren't manufactured movements but authentic expressions of changing hearts and minds. If history is our guide, genuine spiritual awakenings unfold gradually over decades, often recognized fully only in retrospect.
