Description

An exploration of the busy intersection of spirituality and pop culture, taking the pulse of a generation by looking at the faith of one of its idols - Justin Bieber. Behind the spotlight is a teenage boy grounded by a humble faith in Jesus Christ. Listening to the voice of a generation, this book explores the soul and soulful faith behind the famous hair and screaming fans.

"The success I've achieved comes ... from God," Bieber says "I feel I have an obligation to plant little seeds with my fans. I'm not going to tell them, 'You need Jesus,' but I will say at the end of my show, 'God loves you.'" The bold yet humble faith that grounds Bieber's worldview may just be the key to his extraordinary appeal. Recognizing that music and film are the language of this new generation, author and religion journalist Cathleen Falsani's hope is that this book will encourage faith leaders as well as parents to engage with popular culture in a different way so they can better talk to their kids about what matters most.
