MAITLAND, FL— Within the pages of Teresa L. Major’s new book, God at the Movies: Why We Love Titanic ($10.99, paperback, 978-1-61996-223-1; $17.99, hardcover, 978-1-61996-224-8; $5.49, eBook, 978-1-61996-225-5), readers will discover what had audiences of all ages captivated with the story of Jack, Rose and the ill-fated Titanic. Major opens the eyes of her readers to the idea that the love of Rose and Jack reflects the greatest of all loves, the love of Christ for His church.
“God and religion are not things which are boring and unpopular—far from it! Titanic succeeded so wildly precisely because it reflected, more clearly than most other movies, the eternal truths of God,” states the author. “This book can help explain the current popularity of the movie [and] I hope [readers] will see [themselves] in the story and gain a strong sense of God.”
Teresa L. Major is a lifelong Catholic and has been a teacher in her church for the past eleven years. She is the mother of twelve children, which helps keep her exposed to the secular culture and allows her the opportunity to be mindful of the ways those worlds intersect.
