DANIEL RADOSH DESIGN

What does it mean when a band is judged by how hard they pray rather than how hard they rock? Would Jesus buy "Jesus junk" or wear "witness wear"? What do Christian skate parks, raves, and romance novels say about evangelicalism - and America? Daniel Radosh went searching for the answers and reached some surprising conclusions... Written with the perfect blend of amusement and respect, Rapture Ready! is an insightful, entertaining, and deeply weird journey through the often hidden world of Christian pop culture. This vast and influential subculture - a $7 billion industry and growing - can no longer be ignored by anyone who wants to understand the social, spiritual and political aspirations of evangelical Christians.
