Religion in Southern Society: Sanford, NC

If by some curse you end up in the modest little town of Sanford, North Carolina, you’ll end up driving by a different church about every five miles. On Sundays, and even Wednesdays, the parking lots will be crowded with the towns’ citizens. Living in the South, religion has always had a large part in my life. It has always been the topic of conversations and has always controlled my Sunday mornings, but most importantly it has seeped into the social fabrics of my small hometown.
