In the 2024 denomination survey, fewer than 30% of respondents (28.1%) selected “justice-seeking” as one of the top phrases to complete the sentence, “To me, the term ‘Christian Reformed’ means....” In 2023, 32.2% of respondents selected this term, and 32.9% did in 2022. The rest of the top 12 were similar but with a few fewer respondents selecting “‘every square inch’ belongs to Christ” and a few more selecting “conservative.”
