					<description><![CDATA[Nathan Clarke is one of the most impressive documentarians working on religious subjects today. I first discovered his work a couple years ago when I was researching African expressions of the prosperity gospel, a strain of Christianity that teaches believers to expect material riches and physical health as fruits of faith. In collaboration with Christianity [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I attended SXSW last week mostly for things on the Interactive side of the festival–digital media panels and keynotes and whatnot. But in the evenings, I played hooky from my primary professional purposes and took in as many movies as I could. And the best one I saw was Beauty Is Embarrassing. By “best,” part of what [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Last night at South by Southwest, I attended the premiere of The Cabin in the Woods, the much-anticipated and long-delayed directorial debut of Drew Goddard (writer for Lost, Alias, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer), co-written and produced by Joss Whedon. I’d like to write about the movie at length today, but Whedon implored us not [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Bryan Storkel’s documentary Holy Rollers: The True Story of Card-Counting Christians captures a basic feature of evangelicalism: in many ways, evangelical Christians are indistinguishable from their neighbors. As scholars like Robert Wuthnow and Alan Wolfe have documented, evangelicals are everywhere and they’re doing everything. They may sound like social outliers when you read about them [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Your family is criminally dysfunctional. You’re a manic depressive. Human life is irreparably evil.  Mankind is alone in the universe. Oh yes–and a rogue planet hurtling toward earth will destroy our world and everything on it in a violent conflagration. Such is the sunny message of Melancholia, Lars von Trier’s latest unwatchable foray into filmic [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I wrote a few weeks ago that not only do we find faith in the movies, but that we have faith in the movies — in their power to affect us, to bring us to belief, to help us understand ourselves.  The Muppets (though not necessarily the new movie, which I haven’t yet seen) remind [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I had really hoped that I might write this week about Emilio Estevez’ spiritual-journey film The Way; instead, I find myself responding to a movie about pot. As I am in the position of recommending films to my students, I often receive suggestions from my students, too.  Now, I try to be cautious about watching [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I’ve paid only the scantest attention to the Harold Camping news this year, because mostly, I’ve been intrigued that anyone is intrigued at all by some outlier radio host making predictions about the end of days. Seem like the kind of thing we should have learned to downplay by now. Since the 1970s, American culture [&#8230;]]]></description>

Thus, it was with envy and relief that I recently [&#8230;]]]></description>

Tuesday night, I walked in to the kitchen to find my two young sons dancing in front of the refrigerator in only their pajama shorts which were inside-out and backwards, one with a pair of [&#8230;]]]></description>
