What better way to celebrate our 200th episode, than to grab some leftover Mother’s Day cake, bring a bunch of school kids into the recording studio, and learn about the future of the social scientific study of religion with our old friend Bradley Wright? Prof. Wright details a new research strategy of studying individual spirituality called SoulPulse. Harnessing the power of cellular phones and other social media technology, Brad and his team of intrepid researchers are gathering data on how individual people experience spiritual beliefs on a day-to-day (if not hour-to-hour). Find out what some of the early results are and how you can participate by listening to the podcast, clicking the “read more” link below, and telling your friends about this awesome study.
