Daniel Radosh sets out to explore Christian pop culture. I was cautious about picking this book up, because I didn’t want to read some screed against religion or something that denigrated believers in a general sense. But it did neither of these things. It is a respectful, thoughtful examination of Christian pop culture by an outsider. I feel like it helped me understand American evangelicals better, as well as understand more of their world view and the differences within the community. Plus, it was an incredibly engaging work. Radosh is a fun tour guide, well-versed in secular culture, and now, apparently, in Christian culture as well.Rapture Ready! Adventures in the Parallel Universe of Christian Pop Culture
