Sacred Films : Pastoral Meditations on the Movies We Love (Paperback)

Will this book change your life? No. Will this book give you answers to any of the ills of planet Earth? No. Will this book bring you to a place of enlightenment and inner tranquility? No, sorry, it's not going to do that-if it does, please let me know, but I'm pretty sure it won't. Will this book provide you with entertainment and insight while you sit on the toilet? Absolutely. Pastor Adam J. Coffman brings you 50 personal, funny, and at times, gut wrenchingly honest reflections on everything you can possibly imagine -- told through the lens of some of the most beloved films of all time. From Star Wars, to The Matrix, to Jurassic Park, Citizen Kane, Dumb and Dumber, Pulp Fiction, Waterworld, Napoleon Dynamite, and dozens more - these aren't mere movie reviews - they're adventures through digital time and space, and GOD ONLY KNOWS where the next chapter will take you!Your friendly guide is Adam J. Coffman. By day, he's the Senior Pastor of Dailey Chapel Christian Church in Parke County, Indiana. By night, he's a chef, theologian, slayer of time, excavator of geekdom, and Star Wars historian. He spends a great deal of time standing around in his yard whilst contemplating the meaning of life and waiting for his dog to poop. Adam loves to write about all kinds of things. Sometimes, he even writes self-aggrandizing paragraphs about himself in the third person. Adam also likes to watch movies. This is a book he wrote... about watching movies.
