PBS: God in America

Beginning Tomorrow (Monday evening) tune in to God in America ... 
Excerpts of PBS ANNOUNCES THREE NEW PROGRAMS EXPLORING MANY PATHS TO FAITH, SPIRITUALITY
--
PBS will present three documentaries that explore faith and the varieties of religious expression in the United States — one of the most religiously observant and spiritually diverse countries in the world.

GOD IN AMERICA, a six-hour documentary series from AMERICAN EXPERIENCE and FRONTLINE, will tell the sweeping and dramatic story of religious life in America, examining more than 500 years of American religious history from the voyage of Christopher Columbus to the 2008 presidential election. GOD IN AMERICA will examine this history as it has played out in public life, exploring the complex interaction between religion and democracy in the United States; the origins of the American concept of religious liberty; the dynamics of the ever-evolving American religious marketplace; and the vital role played by religious ideas and institutions in many social reform movements in the country's history.
