Abstract: Particularly interested in the intersection among religion, psychology, and wellness, his academic work over more than two decades has analyzed the transformational breakdowns and creative buildups in the form of apocalypses, mysticism, new religious movements, psychedelics, the Bible, Bob Dylan, and, of course, film.He regularly teaches "Religion and Film" at Truman and has overseen a number of student research theses that have contributed to the conversation about just why it is that movies capture our meaning-making imaginations in the way they do.This sundance film festival review is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/ vol27/iss1/12For all its potentially raunchy subject matter, MAMACRUZ is a gentle and life-affirming ode to owning one's own sexuality, pleasure, and desires at any age, regardless of what the church, family, or society at large may tell you is "appropriate."
