From Star Wars To Superman

Stories of heroism and self-sacrifice dominate popular media and are often based on the Greatest Story Ever Told: that of the savior, Jesus Christ. In this exciting new book, author James Papandrea plunges into the Matrix, Batman, the Terminator, Spider Man, Dr. Who, and scores of other modern movies, discovering in each powerful images of Christ and Salvation. Papandrea argues convincingly that hunger for Christ is encoded into the human spirit, and that when cultures such as ours toss Jesus out one door, He comes in albeit disguised through another. Christians who enjoy popular culture will greet this book with acclaim.
