Addicted to Mediocrity: 20th Century Christians and the Arts

Rating:
Summary: addicted to mediocrity (20th century christians and the arts
Review: This book is both inspiring and liberating. Inspiring because it would encourage artists to start working and stop discussing about what is "christian" arts. Liberating, because it would free us from the fear of being criticised, free us to do what we do best. The Q & A portion was most helpful. Kurt Mitchell's illustrations are witty! This book is a work of art, I am tempted to frame it and hang it on the wall!

Rating:
Summary: Very honest, though painful evaluation of pop-Christians.
Review: This is a very thought-provoking book dealing with Christians and the arts. All too often, mediocrity is actually encouraged by "Pop-Christian" thought processes - people too seldom ask hard questions, and evaluate things such as art and music by very superficial criteria.
