The Wondering Years

Being an evangelical and a hard-core pop culture consumer may seem at odds, but here Knox McCoy unpacks how pop culture--books, movies, TV, and music--has enhanced his spiritual beliefs. His experience feels all the more palpable in his narration; no doubt his experience as a podcaster has helped him create a lively narrative voice. He knows how to vary tone to draw out humor--puns, self-deprecating jokes, and more--and switch to a serious tone about more important moments when pop culture has helped him overcome obstacles. The audiobook proves to be an enjoyable jaunt through popular culture with a guide who does less preaching about his religion and more sharing of how pop culture should be more widely appreciated.
