Transforming Culture

Arts & Literature

“"Transforming Culture introduces a unique Christian moving-image communication model based on solid theological and communication theories. This is a very timely source of information for the film industry, which aims at relating moving image communication to faith. Implementing the model of Transforming Culture can be influential to the American Christian film industry and can help spearhead cultural transformation in a country such as South Africa, a young democracy diverse in culture and religion. The model is based on, and is an expansion of, the notion of prophetic imagination initially introduced by the renowned American theologian, Walter Brueggemann. It is a necessity on the bookshelf of the film producer, the communication academic and student, and the theologian.”
