Praying the Movies II: More Daily Meditations from Classic Films

Edward McNulty's love of film and his belief that churches can harness cinema's contribution to contemporary culture come across very strongly in this book. His introduction gives some of the arguments that Christians use against modern films and he explains why he disagrees with these views and considers the medium important for the church. He discusses different types of films and the ways in which the Christian message can be seen in them. He then provides a study guide for a number of films—both popular and more rare. The 3- to 5-page study guides give points for discussion.
