“Chris Seay is one of my favorite people. He's a shepherd at heart.*His insights on culture always take me into a better understanding of*the world we live in. I'm grateful for him in so many ways.”
-Don Miller, author of*Blue Like Jazz
An epic journey into the deepest mysteries of faith
Lost*is not just a television show. It has become much larger than that, growing into a complex, mystery-filled*epic that has garnered over twenty-three million participants. Some might call these people viewers, but you*don't just watch*Lost-you participate in it. It demands that you dialogue with the story, seeking theories, discussing*with friends, and comparing yourself to the characters.
Lost*has broken all the formulas for television, and in doing so has drawn together millions of people on a shared*journey that explores life, faith, history, science, philosophy, hope, and the basic questions of what it means to*be human. It's the seemingly infinite ideas, philosophies, and biblical metaphors that draw us in and leave us*wanting more.
The Gospel According to Lost*explores each of these elements in an analysis of faith and metaphor-a perfect*resource for those who want to go even deeper into the journey.
Inside, you'll discover what Lost has to say about
*
- The clash between faith and reas0n, on the island and in real life;
- The struggle with guilt that consumes each character-and sometimes us too;
- The dichotomy between fatalism and fate, and what the Bible advises;
- How being lost-on an island or in society-presents an opportunity for reinvention that*liberates some and paralyzes others.
