SUMMARY:Nancy Ammerman - Religion as Social Practice: Lived Religion in Context | Sober Thought
DESCRIPTION:Religion as Social Practice: Lived Religion in Context\nThis talk will provide a framework for analyzing religious practices in their social contexts. It will begin by explaining that social practices are religious when they reference or include a spiritual dimension. That dimension may be drawn from an established religious tradition or from a wide range of other cultural sources. These practices can take place both inside and beyond religious institutions. The talk will pay special attention to the way religious practices are shaped by cultural\, institutional\, and legal contexts\, as well as by religious traditions themselves – what is encouraged\, taken for granted\, or constrained.  Special attention will be directed to the multi-dimensionality of religious social practices\, including their material and bodily expressions. \nEvent Details:\n📅 Friday\, 10 July 2026\n🕑 16:00 EEST \n✅Register for free → https://forms.gle/tXqkwj7pbTZCkgjG8\n💻 Join us online via Google Meet: https://meet.google.com/xvj-ogxd-woc  \n🎓 Free & open to all \nNancy T.
