How much does Hollywood influence you?

Ray Comfort is a talented writer, teacher, and active evangelist with a great passion for reaching people for Christ, so it is not surprising that to some people, this book might ruffle a few feathers or come across as what some might label as "preachy." Whatever your opinion, the far-reaching impact that Hollywood has on how people view the world is undeniable. Celebrity magazines and shows abound and our culture eats it up. No doubt about it. Have you ever stopped to consider much of the history of Hollywood? What about the ideas and beliefs that shape Hollywood? The ideas and philosophies and thinking about faith that trickle down to our common culture via Hollywood are influential indeed, although most people would deny just how much of an impact Hollywood actually has upon their individual views. The impact is so powerful that you may not have even realized just how much Hollywood and its proponents have shaped your own view of the world. And how should Christians interact with Hollywood? What films and ideas should we promote with our time and money? How much blasphemy is acceptable? How much sin will we accept on screen? And how will that depiction and acceptance of sin deaden our consciences to what is abhorrent to an Almighty God? You will ponder these questions and more as you read this entertaining and enlightening book by Ray Comfort.
