It isn't so much a question of law but of your understanding with your employer. If you took the job with the understanding you wpould be required to work on Sundays then it is certainly not wrong for your boss to ask you to work then.
If you had no such understanding, and the hours are different then what you agreed to, you have to make a choice...stand your ground and risk losing your job, or try to compromise. Could you work after church? Could you make up the Sunday hours some other time in the week? In any case be courteous and polite, and if there is no compromise, part politely, and ask for a letter of recommendation.
Relying on the law may or may not be in your favor, but resorting to that will do nothing to improve your standing with your boss.

not certain about indiana, but for most companies in most states, its you cant be required to work any days/hours except what you put on your application that you were available to work,,,,,,, so if you dont want to work sundays, dont fill in that you can,,, when you take a job,,, or if the job doesnt have a place like that on the application,,, then give them a letter stating hours available or hours not available,,,,,,, and keep a copy
its more of an issue of what you were contracted to do, expected to do , agreed to do ,,,when hired

I doubt there is any protection there.
