The Public Religion Project
Supported by the Pew Charitable Trusts through the University of Chicago, the Public Religion Project was charged with bringing to light the forces of faith within a pluralistic society. It sought to accomplish that mission in a variety of ways, including conferences, a database service, and publications. The assets, energies, and resources of the Project have now been infused into the larger and continuing agenda of the Martin Marty Center, which incorporates the mission of the Project. The email column Sightings was an invention of the Public Religion Project and continues as a free, bi-weekly publication from the Marty Center. Currently available online is the project booklet, "Public Religion in America Today," written by Martin E. Marty and Edith L. Blumhofer.
