March 2010, Barna Group Research indicates… • 25% of those describing themselves as Christians say they have been “filled with the Holy Spirit” and have received at least one gift such as tongues, prophecy or healing… • Baby Boomers (now 45 to 63) – are currently least likely to identify as charismatic or Pentecostal (20%).

  5. March 2010, Barna Group Research indicates… • Younger Christians are more open to charismatic gifts, but more skeptical about the nature of the Holy Spirit when compared to older Christians.
