This book explores how religious families draw on their spiritual
beliefs, religious practices, and faith communities to help them
strengthen their marital relationships and their parenting. Using
in-depth interviews from eight religious groups - Asian American
Christian; Black Christian; Catholic and Orthodox Christian;
Evangelical Christian; Jewish; Latter-day Saint; Mainline
Protestant; and Muslim - the book uses the interviewees' own words
to show how their religion impacts their lives and influences their
relationships. The book also includes an introductory chapter which
describes the study and the sample; a conceptual chapter which
places the empirical chapters in theoretical context in
sociological study of religious families; and a concluding chapter
which describes how the editors and authors developed respect and
admiration for religious cultures other than their own. Drawing on
such a diverse group of religions in America, this book will be of
interest to those studying individual religious groups, as well as
wider ecumenism and inter-religious dialogue. This book was
originally published as a special issue of the Marriage and Family
Review.
