Britain needs to discover a sense of purpose and direction for the 21st century – especially in the aftermath of Brexit, COVID, economic crises, government corruption, and the passing of much-loved Queen Elizabeth II. The sense of nationhood and core identity diminished after the British Empire ended, and continues to fragment. The Christian tradition once formed the foundation of society, but today minority religions, especially Islam, also receive significant attention and government support. Astrology, New Age, the occult, and old-world paganism (Druid/Wicca) are all slowly becoming more popular, but none as fast as spirituality and religion are declining. Less than half of England and Welsh identify as Christian, a precipitous decline even in the last 20 years. The “freedoms” of the 1960s had disastrous social consequences, and Britain has alarming levels of alcohol and drug abuse, sexually transmitted diseases, abortion, prostitution, gambling addiction, and personal debt. In almost every century of the last 800 years, revival came to Britain at least once. The last was in 1859-1869. Many Christians pray for another great spiritual awakening.
