The article presents the results of an empirical study of Orthodox and Protestant believers. Connection of religious behavior with such indicators of the social dimension of religiosity as acquaintances in the church community, dynamics of social contacts of believers, social attitudes toward representatives of other religions and denominations is considered. An interconfessional analysis of the features of church life was conducted.
