I know..I’m sick. My wife thinks I have an addiction to books. Personally, I could quit anytime…I just don’t want to!!!

I just got Useless Beauty a couple of weeks ago. Anyone have any other recommendations for film related books? I also have Everyday Apocalypse, Eyes Wide Open, Hollywood Worldviews, and some Chris Seay books. The community we’re a part of here (http://www.fusionokc.com) just started Film & Theology a few weeks ago and we’re trying to put it all together.
Gotta love book lists!!
I found Roots of Endurance an encouraging book and have since given copies to a couple of other people since. Simple, scriptural truth told through the stories of the three inspirational men. Good stuff.

How do you like those “…church fathers” books by Hall? I’ve seen them referenced a few places, but haven’t ever picked them up. Seems like a good idea at least.
