What's inside

Head over to Billboard’s Hot 100 chart and choose one of the top 10 most popular songs. If possible, choose one that you’ve heard or that you know your child listens to or by an artist your child likes. Then listen to it and watch its music video if one exists [but do so at your own risk! Many music videos these days are inappropriate in one or many ways]. Now analyze it. Write down your thoughts and reactions to it. It’s important to write them down because we’ll come back to them later.

From the guide

In a postmodern, skeptical world, we generally defend Christianity in terms of truth or apologetics, but beauty also belongs to the Christian faith. Beauty has a way of sneaking past defenses and speaking in unique ways about truth, goodness, and God. To a generation suspicious of truth claims and unconvinced by moral or ethical assertions, beauty has a surprising and disarming allure. A Christianity that is deeply enchanted by beauty has the opportunity to offer a skeptical world an
aspect of truth that has been long forgotten. Where truth and goodness might fail to win the audience, beauty may once again captivate the soul.
