Porterbrook - Campus Bologna - Module: Culture

Tomorrow from 3.30pm to 7.00 pm in Nuova Vita Church
we'll continue the 2016-2017 Academic Year of
Porterbrook - Campus Bologna.




Stefano will teach the module Culture.
In this session, students will interact with these units:

7. Music: Twenty One Pilots / Stressed out
8. TV: MasterChef Italia
9. Book: The Commissario Brunetti series



Understanding culture is a complex task.
Christians have to find points of connection and difference with their cultural context to present the gospel clearly. This course helps with that task but goes further to show us how to do that creatively. This course will stretch you to think biblically and creatively about popular culture. It provides you with a theological tool kit to engage with film, music and computer games.
