Abstract
This paper examines the opportunities and dangers that can emerge when attempting to make the Gospel relevant to the “new culture” as articulated by French scholar Pierre Babin. It argues that inherent dangers exist when attempting to adapt the Gospel to the characteristics of members of the new culture. These inherent dangers–and the need to try to reach out despite them–are clearly illustrated in the Sister Act movies. Of particular note is the shift of focus from God toward music and personality as agents of change. The paper concludes by suggesting the term “interface” as a potentially useful addition to Babin’s lexicon in discussing transmediation and the Gospel.
