How Does a Church Grow?

Churches grow one adherent at a time, but who are these people, when did they join and where do they live? In this visualization, you can explore data about the total number of adherents in the Assemblies of God between 2008-2018 from multiple viewpoints. The entire dataset includes the same population broken up into three different demographic categories, with each circle representing a specific demographic feature in a region in a certain year. You can choose to explore these in aggregate or individually, over time or by region, by using the buttons below.
