How To Become a Pop Culture Mystic: Interview with Author Sr. Nancy Usselmann

Last week, I had a conversation with Sister Nancy Usselmann, FSP, Director of the Pauline Center for Media Studies, about her new book,  A Sacred Look: Becoming Cultural Mystics. Sr. Nancy and I share not just a passion for the Pauline mission of communicating Christ through our lives and all forms of media, but we also share a passion for engaging our pop culture with the Gospel–especially film. I hope you enjoy our conversation!

 

If you enjoyed our conversation, check out Sr. Nancy’s new book, A Sacred Look: Becoming Cultural Mystics, which is available at our online Pauline store, from the Pauline Book & Media Center nearest you, or on amazon.com.

Proclaiming the gospel through the media.

In a world that yearns to receive the Good News, we seek through the various aspects of our mission to be instruments of mercy, hope, and love.

Media Literacy

At the heart of media literacy is a strategy that questions media messages. Because we live in a world shaped by media values, messages, and technologies, media literacy is an educational and faith formation imperative for the 21st century.
