The connection between American popular culture and religion is the subject of this collection. In fourteen essays whose topics range from the divine feminine in The Da Vinci Code to Madonna's "Like a Prayer," and from the world of sports to the ways in which cyberculture has influenced traditional religions, this book offers insights into what popular culture reveals about the nature of American religion today. Revised throughout, this new edition features three new essays - including a fascinating look at the role of women in apocalyptic fiction such as the Left Behind series - and editor Bruce David Forbes has written a new introduction. In addition, each chapter has a set of suggested discussion questions.
