In Using Film to Teach New Testament, Mark Boyer presents to literate educators, a method of using movies to teach the basic New Testament themes to students. Boyer helps bridge the hermeneutical gap between a reading method of learning and a video method of learning. Not only does Boyer explain the method, but offers examples for using it to teach the major books of the New Testament, while providing exercises and discussion questions to be used by teachers, students, and the casual reader, in order to bridge the gap between the first and twenty-first centuries.
While preaching is a different exercise from teaching, there is much in this book that preachers could adapt and use, including watching closely and interpreting contemporary films with gospel lenses. For those parishes with movie nights or film clubs, here's a few years' worth of good line-ups. * Rite *
