NEW STUDY: Family home is the single most critical factor in whether children keep their faith into adulthood.
Parents who attend church weekly, pray daily, and talk openly about religion raise kids more than twice as likely to remain faithful in their 30s and 40s, according to research from the Institute for Family Studies and Communio.
Children who attended church with both parents had a 41% likelihood of weekly attendance as adults, compared to 29% for those who went with just one parent.
