Ministry to Emerging Generations

Book Response: GloboChrist, by Carl Raschke

June 23, 2016 by Tom Grosh IV No Comments

Although I appreciate the “glocal” vision of an indigenizing and incarnational “GloboChrist,” I see the global incarnated in the local and local informing the global in local communities which richly embody the Body of Christ.

Book Response: The Courage to Be Protestant, by David F. Wells

June 14, 2016 by Tom Grosh IV 2 Comments

Overall I appreciate that instead of attempting to summarize and update fifteen years of intense writing (including five Eerdmans publications); Wells delivered the essence of his work. But I wished from the beginning that he included a limited number of footnotes and/or recommendations for further reading beyond references to his previous titles.

Steve Turner begins “Popcultured: Thinking Christianly About Style, Media and Entertainment” by asserting that we have all become “popcultured.”

Book Response: Hollywood Worldviews, by Brian Godawa

June 2, 2016 by Tom Grosh IV 2 Comments

“I am a screenwriter. . . . If you don’t have a good story, you won’t have a good movie, no matter who is acting in it or lighting it or directing it or producing it. If the story doesn’t work, the movie doesn’t work” (9). Yes, the writer creates and “the story is king” (10).

Book Response: Eyes Wide Open, by William Romanowski

May 24, 2016 by Tom Grosh IV No Comments

Going beyond Christian consumption of and ghettoization of 20th century popular, mass art requires: “An engaged, critical, and productive involvement with the popular arts—grounded in a faith vision that encompasses all of life and culture” (14).
