The Message Behind the Movie: How to Engage With a Film Without Disengaging Your Faith

Product Description
Too often, Christian books expose the underlying messages in Hollywood films without equipping believers to discuss those messages and to use them as springboards for sharing the gospel. The Message Behind the Movies gives readers simple tools to interpret films, enabling them to identify the key ideas and plotlines that shape a movie’s meaning. In a fun and approachable style, movie lover and apologetics professor Douglas M. Beaumont enables all who enjoy movies to watch wisely, thus engaging the culture without disengaging their faith.About the Author
