From movies to music, children are inundated with the values of popular culture. How should Christian parents react? A Bengali immigrant and former missionary, Mitali Perkins encourages parents to think of raising children in a pop-culture world as comparable to being ambassadors in a foreign country--devoted first and foremost to their homeland (Christian faith) but wanting to reach out to and understand the host culture (pop culture). Perkins encourages parents to experience popular culture with their children and discuss it openly as Christians. End-of-chapter focus stories and discussion points allow parents and children to reflect upon pop culture in a meaningful, practical way.
