And the study is saying, this may be true especially for African-American couples.
The survey of religion, race and relationships found that African-Americans attend church more as couples compared to members of other racial and ethnic groups. This is according to the August issue of The Journal of Marriage and Family.
“Without prayer, black couples would be doing significantly worse than white couples,” said W. Bradford Wilcox, co-author of the study and the director of the National Marriage Project at the University of Virginia.
In addition to worshipping together, African-Americans were found to be more likely than non-Hispanic whites, to participate in prayer and Scripture studies at home.
In general, researchers found that, people in same-faith relationships and partners, who attended services regularly were more satisfied with their relationship.
