|  | Everyday Apocalypse: The Sacred Revealed in Radiohead, The Simpsons, and Other Pop Culture Icons David Dark Retail Price: $18.00 CBD Price: $15.99
( In Stock )
Excerpt Many of us have come to associate the term "apocalypse," with
prophecies of the end times, or even catastrophic wars of a future age.
In his recent book, Everyday Apocalypse,
author David Dark reminds us that the term simply means "revelation" or
"revealing." Using this simple definition, Dark explores many
contemporary works of art, including music, film and literature, which
he considers apocalyptic insofar as they reveal God in unexpected ways.
Dark notes that our ability to recognize expressions of the sacred in
popular culture will help us to understand the un-churched community
that surrounds us, and may, in fact, help us to communicate the gospel
with more clarity.
