Active Culture

Erik Guzman May 5th, 2007

Join us this week as we talk with author Dick Staub about his book, The Culturally Savvy Christian: A Manifesto for Deepening Faith and Enriching Popular Culture in an Age of Christianity-Lite. Here's a blurb on the book from dickstaub.com…

"In this incisive critique of contemporary culture and religion, Dick Staub concludes that though it is influential, American popular culture is generally superficial & soulless.

Similarly American Christianity has devolved into its own mindless, diversionary, and celebrity-driven superficiality.

We face the lose-lose alternatives of a soul-numbing culture and a vacuous Christianity-lite.

The renaissance of both faith and culture will originate in a deep spiritual renewal that creates a new breed of culturally savvy, thoughtful creatives who rekindle the spiritual, intellectual, and creative legacy of Christians as enrichers of culture."

Are you drowning in the shallow end of the pool? Don't miss this show.
