George Barna Has Unveiled Impactful Research Through American Pastors Network Over Five Years

Over his extensive career, well-known social science researcher George Barna has conducted studies that have opened the eyes of many Americans, sometimes providing surprising findings that change their outlook on the culture.

Over the first five years of its existence, the American Pastors Network (APN) has built a mutually beneficial partnership with Barna, who has often unveiled new research for the first time on APN’s “Stand in the Gap Today” radio program. APN is celebrating its five-year anniversary this month.

“Perhaps no one has a finger on the pulse of American views, beliefs and attitudes more than George Barna,” said APN president Sam Rohrer. “Christianity is being challenged, and faith is being redefined by Americans. Based on the incredible information George Barna provided to our network of pastors, there is tremendous opportunity for the church to be salt and light in a growing world of darkness.”

Barna has also been a guest on APN’s new “Stand in the Gap” television program, which considers transcending cultural issues, seemingly difficult to navigate, from a biblical worldview perspective. “Stand in the Gap TV” airs on several networks, including WBPH in Philadelphia, VCY-TV in Milwaukee and Upliftv nationally.
