The (Magic) Kingdom of God: Christianity and Global Culture Industries by Michael L. Budde

An amazing look at the formative power of consumerism in culture. Budde proposes that if the church is to have any chance of forming its people, it must turn passive receivers of advertising, marketing and media into active participants that can recognize the anti-liturgy of the message and turn it into a sort of liturgy through active protestation of these messages.
