Looking at Christianity and Culture

I've wanted to blog more about this topic, but I haven't had the time to sit down and come up with a coherent post discussing Christianity and Culture. However, there have been some recent articles and books out on this topic, and I want to at least bring them to your attention.

The Point blog discusses Christian art and movies like Facing the Giants.

Christianity Today has a cover article discussing "The New Culture Makers". There is an excerpt from Andy Crouch's new book Culture Making. There is also a review of the book Christ and Culture Revisited.

I've recently purchased Culture Making and another book on the subject, Dick Staub's The Culturally Savvy Christian. I've started Staub, and it already is quite thought-provoking.

If you're so inclined, check out some of these resources. Hopefully I can get my head around some ideas (head not so stretchy this month, it seems...) and discuss them with a little more depth soon.

  1. I am interested and will be looking forward to your postings on this Jason.

    You might be interested in some of the cultural difference between the US and Australia.
