Check out my latest article in the Chicago Tribune, available on stands and online today.

For this article, I interviewed Catherine Corona, a filmmaker in Boulder, CO, who has released a new film (The Great Mystery) about religious differences and similarities. Corona went on a road trip around Western America visiting mosques, temples, synagogues, and churches to discover what religious adherents say they believe. She didn’t set out to show their similarities, but Catherine told me that the themes just kept popping up — all of them mentioned a focus on compassion, all of them said all religions are worshipping the same God, and so on.

I’ve watched the film and I have to say, it’s pretty moving. And as far as documentaries go, it will have your attention the whole way through.

Learn more about the film on Corona’s website.
