An Interference member has told U2News about a new U2 book due in the Fall of 2003 called Get Up Off Your Knees: Preaching the U2 Catalog.
From the book's website, the following information is available:
Get Up Off Your Knees: Preaching the U2 Catalog, a collection of sermons which draw on the music of U2, will be published late in 2003 by Cowley Publications. While you're waiting, you can follow progress at the U2 Sermons blog.
With a "works cited" list ranging from "Playboy Mansion" to "Sunday Bloody Sunday," from "Pride" to "Peace on Earth," Get Up Off Your Knees highlights how preachers of all ages, from all theological traditions, are reflecting on U2's work. This is not a book trying to prove anything about U2 themselves, but a book of examples of how religious leaders are integrating spiritually informed pop culture into their proclamation of the Gospel.
