Description
The Stories We Tell: How TV and Movies Long for and Echo the Truth by Mike Cosper. We spend a significant amount of time consuming stories through television and film. In fact, we watch an average of 5 hours of TV every day, with annual spending on movies reaching $30 billion. While it's easy to get caught up in the entertainment value of these stories, Mike Cosper suggests that there may be more to them than meets the eye. Cosper argues that the tales we tell through media inevitably reflect a deeper narrative - one that explores humanity's struggle with sin and redemption. By examining the stories we consume, he aims to help us better understand our own longings and values. This thought-provoking book invites readers to consider how the movies and TV shows they enjoy might be connected to something greater. Through his exploration of popular culture, Cosper offers a fresh perspective on the power of storytelling and its relevance to our lives today.
