Aimee Semple McPherson and the Resurrection of Christian America

by Matthew Avery Sutton ...

Every child knows what it means to play, but the rest of us can merely speculate. Is it a kind of adaptation, teaching us skills, inducting us into certain communities? Is it power, pursued in games of prowess? Fate, deployed in games of chance? Daydreaming, enacted in art? Or is it just frivolity? Brian Sutton-Smith, a leading proponent of play theory, considers each possibility as it has been ... Read more

The Future of Religion and American Politics

Edited by Matthew Avery Sutton, Darren Dochuk ...
