A film I had the honor of appearing in as a sociologist of religion — SABBATH — is now out!
Produced by Martin Doblmeier and Journey Films, Sabbath explores the religious, historical, and social dimensions of rest-as-practice. Yonat Shimron writes for the Washington Post that “Doblmeier has recruited an A-list of theologians, scholars and clergy to offer insights historical, theological and sociological.” My own contributions stem from my research on congregations throughout the United States as well as on Americans’ shifting relationship to work, rest, and religious practice.
The 2-hour film began airing on PBS stations nationwide in June. You may also view it here, or inquire about a public screening.
