Sightings publishes two articles per week. Our Monday pieces are authored by Martin Marty, one of the most prominent interpreters of religion and culture today. Our Thursday pieces come primarily from other academics, but also sometimes from religious leaders or informed citizens. Sightings currently goes out to around 5000 subscribers via email; more people read it on the website. Our articles are regularly featured on sites such as RealClearReligion, and select pieces are also republished in The Atlantic. In short, we provide an opportunity to reach a much wider audience than students and scholars of religion usually do.
