Lawrence Lilliston created a Religion and Modern Life blog that explores how religion can deepen insight into modern life (culture, behavior, happiness, unhappiness, e.g.)
She has posted on interesting topics such as Baseball As A Road To God, Poetry and God and Gratitude and Happiness.
She wrote, "One of the major benefits of religion can be in coping with life stressors. When we are suffering with pain - physical or psychological - our reliance on God as an emotional support can help us weather the storm."
