Religion in America has changed over those years, says Ostling, as has the job of covering it. Familiar denominations no longer provide most news stories. Many churches have splintered, as worshippers differ over doctrine or follow charismatic seers. Parishioners struggle over how their churches should relate to society.

...little prairie poetry into his views and whetted his appetite to study history, which he did for eleven years.

So far, the efforts aimed at making "Tsongas" a familiar name seem to have been fairly successful: a television and radio campaign in western Massachusetts has doubled the candidate's visibility, Goldman says. Now, in hopes of doing the same in the east, and because he can afford the $2000-and-up price-tag of a 30-second slot of air time on Boston television stations, Tsongas...
