In a previous video, I discussed a pile of anecdotal evidence that there is an Orthodox convert surge. But is it real? Does it show up in real data?
And is it true that there is a big spike in young men converting? Does the form of reception (baptism vs. chrismation only) make a difference in long-term engagement?
Matthew Namee, Executive Director of the Orthodox Studies Institute, discusses a new study from OSI which tracked Orthodox converts in the US from 2013-2023.
