Counter The twenty-five contributors to this volume - who include such influential thinkers as Jacques Derrida, Jean-Luc Nancy, Talal Asad, and James Siegel - confront the conceptual, analytical, and empirical difficulties involved in addressing the complex relationship between religion and media. The book's introductory section offers a prolegomenon to the multiple problems raised by an interdisciplinary approach to these multifaceted phenomena. The essays in the following part provide exemplary approaches to the historical and systematic background to the study of religion and media. The third part presents case studies by anthropologists and scholars of comparative religion. The book concludes with two remarkable documents: a chapter from Theodor W. Adorno's study of the relationship between religion and media in the context of political agitation (The Psychological Technique of Martin Luther Thomas's Radio Addresses) and a section from Niklas Luhmann's monumental Die Gesellschaft der Gesellschaft (Society as a Social System).

Growing up, we didn't have the Internet, our friends didn't cut themselves and text messaging wasn't even on the radar. Today's young people are bombarded by media of all kinds, and have instant access to any subject and any topic of their choosing. Their media-saturated lives are inescapably inundated by chat rooms, movies, instant messaging and their ipods. How do we help guide our children to live Godly lives amidst this kind of cultural climate? Brett Ullman discusses, from a parent's perspective, sensitive topics affecting today's young people including cutting, suicide, substance abuse, sex and violence. Bringing hope and an awareness to today's parents, Brett sheds light on how with increased knowledge of youth trends, adults can be more discerning in their parenting strategies and better able to anticipate the needs of their children as they navigate the often challenging waters of adolescence.

In the past, ideologies and religions had a real impact on the media. In the current era of mass media and communication strategies, perception takes priority over identity and new questions arise: how to introduce faith and religion in a pluralising and detraditionalising world? What possibilities are offered by the new media? How can technical innovations be incorporated in church communication? Following the conference Belief in the Media (April 2007), this publication focuses on the gap between the language of faith and the language of the general media. The different contributors analyse, from within - but also from outside - a church context, the historical changes and challenges the Catholic Church and other faiths and denominations face with regard to their social communication and media strategies. However it is not only the relationship of religious institutions with the media that is at stake, but also the way in which the media cover topics such as the Middle East, Muslim immigrant populations in Europe, and the World Youth Day. Journalists have to find new ways to get a grip on these issues too.

In the digital age, it is practically impossible to avoid lurid headlines or hot-off-the-press scandals. When these scandals involve the Church, it raises questions for many about what it means for people of faith. Christopher R Altieri, a veteran journalist and Vatican expert, offers insight into how the news is made, how to spot clickbait and "fake news", and how to discover the real stories behind the shocking headlines. Through a series of recollections from a career in covering the Vatican beat, he offers insight into how he can write about scandal and abuse - and how we can read about it - without losing faith in the promises of Christ.

In a world teeming with uncertainty, where the foundations of societal norms and beliefs are continuously challenged, the journey of maintaining a steadfast faith is more pertinent than ever. "Unshaken: Standing Firm in Faith in a World of Doubt" is a profound exploration of the enduring strength and necessity of faith in modern times. This book offers an in-depth look at the trials and triumphs of living out one’s faith in a society that often seems to operate in contradiction to religious principles and values. The Need for a Steadfast Faith Every day, believers are confronted with a society that frequently appears indifferent or even antagonistic to spiritual truths. Secularism, relativism, and a culture of instant gratification challenge the very core of Christian doctrines and ethical living. In such a landscape, how does one maintain a vibrant, unwavering faith? How does one stand firm and not lose heart or direction when the currents of societal norms and values seem to flow in the opposite direction? "Unshaken" addresses these critical questions by delving into the scripture, providing practical advice, and sharing inspirational stories of those who have navigated these waters successfully. This book is designed not only to reaffirm the foundations of Christian faith but also to empower believers to live out their faith boldly and effectively. Key Themes and Structure The book is structured to guide readers through various aspects of living a faith-filled life in a world filled with doubt. Each chapter tackles a specific theme, providing biblical insights, practical guidance, and real-life examples that illustrate both challenges and victories in the faith journey. 1. Understanding the Times Starting with a broad overview, the first chapter discusses the current spiritual and cultural landscape, identifying the major challenges to faith in our time. This sets the stage for understanding the need for a resilient, informed Christian stance. 2. Biblical Foundation and Spiritual Practices Subsequent chapters explore the foundational elements of Christian faith, such as prayer, scripture reading, and community engagement. These practices are essential for building and maintaining a strong, active faith that can withstand the pressures of a secular world. 3. Engaging the World The book also addresses how to engage positively with the world while remaining true to Christian convictions. Topics include handling ethical dilemmas in the workplace, navigating media and technology, and interacting with those of differing or no faith. 4. Mentorship and Legacy Looking toward the future, "Unshaken" emphasizes the importance of mentoring the next generation and ensuring the continuation of a robust Christian legacy. This involves practical advice for fostering spiritual growth in others and living in such a way that one’s faith journey inspires and instructs long after one’s time. 5. Hope and Encouragement The concluding sections of the book focus on hope and encouragement, essential components of a faith that not only endures but also thrives. Readers are reminded of the eternal perspective and the joy that comes from a deep, personal relationship with God. For Whom is This Book? "Unshaken" is written for anyone who desires to deepen their understanding of how to live faithfully as a Christian in a modern, often secular world. It is for new believers who are just beginning their faith journey and seasoned Christians who are looking for renewal or reassurance. Pastors, leaders, and lay Christians will find this book a valuable resource for personal growth and ministry.
