Religion BookLine on Creating Culture

Religion BookLine, a division of Publishers Weekly, published this interview with Andy Crouch, author of Creating Culture, today.

Crouch says,

“As I read the work of academic sociologists like Peter Berger I became really convinced that the only way that cultures change is when people make more culture—which called into question a lot of the strategies that Christians think they ought to use to change culture, such as protest. There’s lots that’s worth protesting, in our culture and in every culture, but protest alone doesn’t change culture, and analysis doesn’t change culture, and withdrawal, which has been sometimes a strategy that Christians have adopted, doesn’t change it. It only changes when you create something.”
