Abstract

This article is written based on my observation and experience, who "sucked"� into populer culture. People inevitably will always "sucked"� into the black hole of culture. In popular culture, people are considered to be humans if only they satisfy their libido. So, popular culture can blurring self identity in the society, because communal similarity is preferred. Self identity formed from communal understanding of popular culture concept and force� someone to follow it. Therefore, the challenge of popular culture to spirituality is very obvious because it concerns a person identity. Spirituality always departs from the inside to the outside. While the phenomenon of popular culture, the meaning is controlled by the community and adapted into self. This article written to realizing the importance of spiritual growth in the context of popular culture, which can be done firstly through Christian Education.
