What are people saying about Media Mindfulness?

Media Mindfulness is a wonderful gift to people of faith. With easy-to-implement suggestions, it guides readers (and their students) in a sophisticated and reflective examination of the complex intersections between media and modern life. The book's emphasis on good decision-making and thinking critically with an open mind and heart is a welcome addition to the field of media literacy education. It is a must-have for anyone working with youth groups in a faith-based context. Faith Rogow, Ph.D., Founding President, Alliance for a Media Literate America (AMLA)

A blockbuster resource for teaching about the media and media messages within a context of Christianity. Both authors have a wonderful reputation for their work in this area, and once again they have delivered a resource that is invaluable to anyone teaching about media literacy. John J. Pungente, SJ, Jesuit Communication Project, Toronto, Ontario

This is an important book on a timely and critical topic. By approaching media and popular culture from a perspective grounded in faith and Scripture, Hailer and Pacatte have given us a powerful, comprehensive resource for helping teens understand and thoughtfully reflect on the role media and technology play in their young lives. The four-part "media mindfulness" strategy gives educators, ministers, and mentors a framework and effective activities for engaging youth in thoughtful analysis of media and its influence on attitudes, behaviors, faith, and values. This book belongs in every church, youth ministry, and religious education program. Frank Gallagher, Director, Education and Media Literacy, Cable in the Classroom
