Summary

The average American watches five hours of TV every day. Collectively, we spend roughly $30 billion on movies each year. Simply put, we're entertainment junkies. But can we learn something from our insatiable addiction to stories? Mike Cosper thinks so. From horror flicks to rom-coms, the tales we tell and the myths we weave inevitably echo the narrative underlying all of history: the story of humanity's tragic sin and God's triumphant salvation.

This entertaining audiobook connects the dots between the stories we tell and the one great Story - helping us better understand the longings of the human heart and thoughtfully engage with the movies and TV shows that capture our imaginations.

Good, fun listen

A casual, Christian tour of various screen stories. Christian Audio's titles aren't very meaty, but this is interesting and easy to listen to.
