Fine Arts, Social Sciences

The Higher the Dome, the Closer to God: This interview with photographer Lisa Auerbach explores how the architecture of megachurch buildings represent the faith and community of that faith community, but also the individualism, capitalism and personal agency represented by small businesses.  The piece includes 15 photos and could be used in classes on liturgical arts, sociology of religion, worship, the sacraments, and the geography of the city.
