All God's Children and Blue Suede Shoes Christians & Popular Culture

Where did popular culture come from? Why is it the way it is?How does it influence Americans in general and Christians inparticular? Ken Myers provides fascinating answers to thesequestions. He sees pop culture as a culture of diversion,preventing people from asking questions about their origin anddestiny and about the meaning of life. Two aspects standout-a quest for novelty and a desire for instantgratification. In addition, this culture offers something veryappealing--the illusion that you set your own standards, you canchoose, you are the master of your fate, you deserve a break,you're worth it.Myers, Kenneth A. is the author of 'All God's Children and Blue Suede Shoes Christians & Popular Culture' with ISBN 9780891075387 and ISBN 0891075380.
