Non-denominational Christianity - History
Non-denominational Christian churches are almost exclusively derived from the Protestant movement, as a fundamental part of Catholicism is unity.
In the United States, the number of evangelical non-denominational churches (often included in the category of American Protestantism) has increased exponentially since the late 1950s. Many historians of American religion cite after-effects of the Scopes Trial and baby boomers, as well as the higher standard of living available in the United States, and the movement away from authority in American culture due to Watergate and other scandals.
According to research by Barna Research and others there is an increase in the number of Christians who do not align themselves with any denomination. Many of these attend city or regional "super" or "mega" churches of congregations of 1500+ attendees.
Other reasons of growth may include an increase want to focus on Jesus. Some people feel that belonging to a Christian denomination can pull focus off Christ and onto certain principles of the particlular denomination which are not Christ. So growth may be caused by Christians (which literally means "belonging to Christ") who want to focus on Christ Jesus who they believe they belong to instead of denomination principles.
