Preface

Resources from Popular Culture

          Grace and the lack of grace have been themes in many recent films.  Two of the most powerful

          are listed below.  This study guide will almost always provide contemporary examples of music

          for you to use in a class or group discussion, but here we list only one song, an old hymn that can

          amazingly still bring tears to people's eyes.

          Films:

                        Shawshank Redemption

                        Babette's Feast

          Music:

                        Amazing Grace
