Show Notes

On Sunday, Aug. 24, Dr. Daniel Wise spoke on the American spiritual landscape from the turn of the 20th century. Since the first decade of the 2000s, the "nones," referring to Americans who claim no religious affiliation on surveys, have been a topic of considerable interest among cultural commentators and religious scholars. In just the past few years, a wrench has been thrown into the emerging picture of the new American spiritual status quo: the rise of the religiously affiliated seems to have halted (at least for now).

Daniel S. Wise (Ph.D., University of Virginia) writes and speaks on the American spiritual landscape from the turn of the 20th century to the present.
