Engaging with Culture, Part 2

by | Oct 3, 2012 | News

I love movies and entertainment.  To be more precise, I love entertainment that is not like real life.  I live real life everyday.  Why would I want to pay money to live someone else’s in a theater?  So, I enjoy being entertained.  But there’s more…

Very few things in our world reveal what people are thinking than the art and entertainment we create.  So, I enjoy watching with discernment to hear the story behind the story.  What is this story telling me about our culture?

James Harleman shares my passion for this and has spent a decent amount of time watching and writing about movies and the gospel.  If this interests you, check out his website.

My prayer is that God would give us eyes like Paul had in Athens…to observe the culture and to know how to connect it to the gospel.
