The Moviegoer: Memorable 2012 Moviegoing

Last updated on: February 21, 2013 at 6:16 pm By Nick Olson

Each week in The Moviegoer, Nick Olson examines new and upcoming films. Confession: I love lists. I love making to-do lists, favorites lists, even grocery lists. All kinds of lists. I’m that person with a computer home screen filled with those little electronic notepad stickies–and my computer sits on a desk with various material notepad stickies populating the work space.

God and Country Music: The Wise Blood of American Music

Last updated on: February 20, 2013 at 8:16 am By Nick Rynerson

Each week in God and Country Music, Nick Rynerson gives country music a chance and examines the world of Americana, folk, alt-country, and popular country music. To know the music of a society is to know that society. While much musical analysis is focused on the music itself, music tells a story much bigger than can be contained in the meter of a song. I once had a professor who said, “Music was the language of the soul.” Even the mass... Read more

My decision to watch a show is intentional: I have to get on the computer, pull up Netflix, and let the show load. The one show I’ve watched most recently and enjoy wholeheartedly is Downton Abbey. But many Christians, including some close to me, believe that I’ve made a poor viewing choice due to the... Read more
