Author Paul Asay is a fellow pop culture crusader. He has a good sense of humor to go along with his faith, a combo that allows him to engage in all sorts of conversations in creative ways. Just my style.
His recent book is God on the Streets of Gotham: What the Big Screen Batman Can Teach Us About God and Ourselves [Tyndale]. He recently took a few minutes to chat with me about the Caped Crusader under Christopher Nolan’s direction and how pop culture can be a great tool in finding meaning. [Spoiler free!]
