When Barna Group started in 1984, the idea of a research firm devoted primarily to the exploration of faith and spirituality was groundbreaking.  In fact, George Barna coined the term theolographics™ to describe the faith variables of belief, activity, affiliation and identity.  This section of the Barna website gives you access to our research and resources that address the faith and spirituality of Americans.
