Episode #175--"Using Data To Help Build The Kingdom"--1:1 Conversation with Terry Poplava, ACS Technologies

In this Say Yes to Holiness podcast 1:1 Conversation, Christina sits down with Terry Poplava of ACS Technologies to speak about the results from the latest survey done concerning American religious beliefs.

The survey was a national research initiative conducted by ACS Technologies, and the results grant us insight into the religious preferences and practices of Amercians that are especially valuable for helping us share the Good News with those around us.

Our conversation also touched upon Terry's own faith journey and how what he has learned through his work has impacted how he lives as a disciple of Christ.

The American Beliefs Study: Religious Preferences and Practicesis groundbreaking research initially conducted in 2013 and then repeated in 2017 and 2021 with over 45,000 participants. This decade-long timespan and significant polling size sample have established The American Beliefs Study as a recognized leader in understanding American religious preferences and practices.

Valuable insights that reveal changing behaviors and social and moral attitudes and trends within communities of faith have been distilled into a series of unique discoveries and conclusions. Long-form articles are the American Belief Reports. And the short-form quotes and highlights for quick use. The full study is also integrated in MissionInsite, providing foundational propriety value to this demographic community intelligence software tool.

A leader in church management software, market expertise, and data analysis for the last 45 years, ACS Technologies conducted this research by examining the theological beliefs of Americans. The goal was to provide church leaders with the wisdom they need to prepare, guide and quicken them to be as effective as they can be in living out the Gospel.
