Competing Priorities? Testing Multiple Mechanisms That Connect Adolescent Religiosity to Marriage in Young Adulthood
Religion and family remain tightly linked institutions, but the increasingly varied period of emerging adulthood, which includes delays in marriage transition and reduced religiosity overall, calls for additional research into this relationship. Religious involvement continues to be associated with earlier age at first marriage, for example, but the specific mechanisms responsible for this connection are often only implied or untested. Accordingl…
Are Online Congregations Representative? Exploring Resource and Political Differences
Social scientists are paying a growing amount of attention to the online presence of American congregations and not just because of the COVID-19 shutdowns. In part, text-as-data analytic techniques have made religious communication a viable area of study in addition to existing qualitative methods. Given the existing biases in terms of which congregations post sermons online, an important next step is to investigate potential political biases in …
Too Much to Hope
As Du Bois observed a century ago, the White Church as an institution is largely associated with maintaining the status quo of racial stratification rather than offering a progressive force. To analyze the rhetoric of predominantly White clergy on race, I analyze a sample of sermons from predominantly White congregations in Charlottesville, VA following the 2017 White supremacist rally (N = 87 sermons from 38 congregations). I find that clergy dr…
You Know, the Church Has Never Agreed on Everything
Clergy have regular opportunities to take a prophetic stance on social issues in their weekly sermons, but they are also responsible for maintaining organizational stability. How do they respond to controversial denominational decisions? We collected sermons from the United Methodist Church (UMC) clergy following the 2019 UMC decision to maintain their prohibition against same sex marriage and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ…
Getting Permission to Break the Rules
Organizational scholars expect organizations to conform to the norms and expectations of their institutional environments. In some cases, though, organizations may reject rules if they perceive a greater advantage to defiance than to conformity. This project analyzes a sample of sermons given by United Methodist Church (UMC) clergy surrounding the 2019 UMC General Conference. We focus on a subset of sermons in which clergy explicitly mention they…
Investigating Religion and Inequality through Women's Work-Family Pathways
This project investigates the relationship between religious involvement and women's work and family pathways in the United States. I identify five work-family configurations using National Longitudinal Study of Youth 1979 (NLSY79) data and latent class analysis. These configurations incorporate cohabitation histories, timing of family formation, and maternal employment. Then, I analyze how adolescent religiosity and personal and family character…
