Synopsis: It is not enough to condemn culture. Nor is it sufficient merely to critique culture or to copy culture. Most of the time, we just consume culture. But the only way to change culture is to create culture. In his new book Andy Crouch unleashes a stirring manifesto calling Christians to be culture makers. For too long Christians have had an insufficient view of culture and have waged misguided "culture wars." But we must reclaim the cultural mandate to be the creative cultivators that God designed us to be. A model of his premise, this landmark book is sure to be a rallying cry for a new generation of culturally creative Christians. Discover your calling to become a culture maker! Endorsements "Culture Making is a book that's been needed for decades, but it arrives at just the right moment. People of faith now poised to use their influence have much to contribute to the common good as creators and advocates, not just as critics and judges. But that requires careful thought and clear insight, both of which are abundantly found in this profound and practical book." D. Michael Lindsay, author of Faith in the Halls of Power and assistant professor of sociology, Rice University
