He also has taught at the Florence Center of FSU.

Work

His books include The Hidden Balance (Cambridge University Press, 1987); The Prism of Piety (Oxford University Press, 1991); Religion in America (coauthor, Prentice Hall, 1992, 1998; 2003; 2010); Jews, Christians, Muslims (coauthor, Prentice Hall, 1998, 2010); Readings in Judaism, Christianity and Islam (coeditor, Prentice Hall, 1998); Emotion and Religion (coauthor, Greenwood, 2000); Business of the Heart: Religion and Emotion in the Nineteenth Century (University of California Press, 2002); Religion and Emotion: Approaches and Interpretations, ed., (Oxford University Press, 2004), French and Spanish Missions in North America[1], an interactive electronic book (co-author, California Digital Library/University of California, 2004), The Oxford Handbook of Religion and Emotion, (ed., Oxford University Press, 2008); Religion in American History (coeditor, Blackwell, 2010); Religious Intolerance in America: A Documentary History (coauthor, University of North Carolina Press, 2010); and The Spatial Humanities: GIS and the Future of the Humanities (co-editor, Indiana University Press, 2010).

His research on American religious history has focused on its emotional components, instances of religious violence, and the interwovenness of political, social, and religious ideologies. His research since 2000 increasingly has focused on integrating spatial technologies (such as GIS) into the humanities, developing an interdisciplinary approach to the study of space and place, and theorizing ways in which the emergent digital humanities can advance the study of religion and culture when framed by spatial considerations.
