Eyes Wide Open
Looking for God in Popular Culture
by William D. Romanowski
- 3 Want to read
Evaluates popular culture from a Christian perspective. The author points out that all elements of pop culture reflect the beliefs and assumptions of current society and argues that it is important to consider the products of contemporary culture objectively and rationally. The book includes an examination of the Hollywood mythology that still permeates our culture and the cumulative effect of unrealistic approaches to complex problems of life. Nonetheless, pop culture can often provide a useful starting point for dialog. Romanowski feels that good popular art, effectively examined, is often more useful for Christian discussion than much self-consciously religious material. In support of his argument, he provides a list of questions to apply to such analysis.
