Mingle At Church: Why Young Americans Are Rediscovering Religion

from The Smerconish Podcast · host Katie McGrady, Michael Smerconish

Is organized religion making a comeback? Michael explores a surprising trend: growing interest in faith—especially among Gen Z men. Joined by SiriusXM Catholic Channel 129 host Katie McGrady, the conversation dives into why young people are returning to church after decades of decline. Is it a search for community in an increasingly isolated, screen-driven world? A response to anxiety, uncertainty, and global instability? Or something deeper? From rising conversion numbers to the role of technology, this episode examines the cultural forces reshaping faith in America. Original air date 2 April 2026.
