This is the whipped-cream version of a postmodernism
primer for baby boomers, a delectable and highly enjoyable introduction.
With engaging stories, Tabb provides a readable, intelligent, and
succinct explanation of such concepts as hyperreality, the desirability
of experiences, and the malleability of language.
Mission to Oz encourages boomers to see that
Christianity offers what postmoderns are looking for: authentic
relationships, significance, and purpose. Tabb wants readers to reach
out to postmoderns fearlessly, and he provides many examples of what
constitutes effective relationship building with people seeking
spiritual foundations. Instead of providing canned instruction for
presenting the Gospel to postmoderns, Tabb provides tools for real
dialogue. Highly recommended.
