The Church As A Social Institution: The Sociology Of American Religion is a comprehensive study of the role of religion in American society. Written by David Oscar Moberg, a leading sociologist of religion, this book explores the ways in which religion shapes and is shaped by social institutions, including the family, education, politics, and the economy.The book begins by examining the historical roots of religion in America, from the early colonial period to the present day. It then looks at the various religious traditions that have emerged in the United States, including Protestantism, Catholicism, Judaism, and Islam.Drawing on a wide range of sociological theories and research, Moberg explores the ways in which religion influences social behavior and attitudes. He examines the role of religion in shaping moral values, social norms, and political beliefs, and he discusses the ways in which religious organizations interact with other social institutions, such as the media, the legal system, and the economy.Throughout the book, Moberg emphasizes the importance of understanding religion as a social institution, and he argues that a sociological approach to religion is essential for understanding its role in American society. He also provides practical insights for religious leaders, policymakers, and others who are interested in promoting social change through religion.Overall, The Church As A Social Institution: The Sociology Of American Religion is a thought-provoking and insightful examination of the complex relationship between religion and society in the United States.
