Wow, what can one say about a review like Marcia Ford’s except “thank you.” Here’s an excerpt from her review for FaithfulReader.com:

With all the books on the market about the intersection of faith and culture, you have to wonder why we need another one. The answer is simple: it’s unlikely that any other book out there accomplishes what CULTURE MAKING does, and certainly not in the way that Andy Crouch does. . . .

CULTURE MAKING will easily resonate with three groups of readers in particular: those who have a passion for impacting the culture, those who feel so insignificant that they don’t see how they could possibly “make” culture, and those who appreciate both meaty content and wonderful writing. Consider this: “There is a grace-filled power loose in the world that far outstrips our greatest human ambitions and can quiet our deepest human fears. We enter into the work of cultural creativity…as participants in the story of new creation that comes just when our power seems to have been extinguished. Culture making becomes…the astonished and grateful response of people who have been rescued from the worst that culture and nature can do.” Substantial content, beautifully expressed.

Highly recommended.
