What the Research Really Says About Biblical Values

What if you could prove, with data, what you’ve always believed?

Dr. David Haskell has spent years researching church growth, family stability, education, mental health and civic engagement. As a sociologist and professor, his work has led him to examine what actually helps individuals, families and societies flourish.

In this week’s episode of The Family Policy Alliance Report, Dr. Haskell explains what years of research have revealed—and why following the evidence challenged some of his own assumptions and ultimately strengthened his confidence in biblical principles.

In this conversation, you’ll hear:

• The one variable Dr. Haskell’s landmark church growth study found mattered more than music, preaching style, or programs combined
• Why the data on families, education, and mental health kept pointing back to the same surprising conclusion
• How Dr. Haskell says the media and academia get Christianity wrong — and the evidence he uses to prove it in his new book Christ or Collapse: The Case Against Godless Government
• His pointed response to Christians who think faith should stay out of public policy

Whether you’re looking for evidence to support your faith or simply want to understand today’s cultural debates through the lens of research, this conversation offers a thoughtful perspective grounded in years of study.

Watch the full conversation today and discover why Dr. Haskell says the choice facing society is ultimately “Christ or Collapse.”
