Theology & Culture

It's been on my mind for quite some time now to do a series of classes on Movies (sorry FILMS). The reason being is that most of what we believe, for better or worse is often shaped by what we read, what we listen to and what we watch. So I was very pleased by two recent posts I've come across on the interweb:

1. Arts and Faith released it's top 100 films of all time. Unfortunately, there website is down right now, but if you get a chance Google it and check out some of their recommendations. These are not films like 'Fireproof', rather these are films like 'The Decalogue' etc.

2. The Resurgence released this series of lectures about various movies in pop culture. Their goal is seeking to discern the broader messages in these films, and how they relate to a Biblical World-View. Check out the first lecture on 'Iron Man' below:
