Telling Tales distills twenty years' worth of reflections on popular culture through the lens of faith and reason, literature and philosophy. Recurring and integrating motifs of the volume center on the character of God and the nature and value of people, winsomely explored with a light touch. Canvassing pop culture artifacts as diverse as Harry Potter and Firefly, these reflections challenge readers to look closer and attend to inchoate echoes of the sacred in the otherwise familiar and mundane."Telling Tales is a rich collection that brings together many years of thoughtful cultural analysis. Marybeth and David Baggett offer much timeless wisdom about our changing world in these pages." - Philip Tallon, author of The Absolute Basics of the Christian Faith
