The cult classic, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, ran from 1997-2003 and sparked both controversy and a strange cacophony of fans, from teenagers to professional academics to feminist scholars.
What is it about this show that caught the attention of so many? Why was this pop culture clip able to grab such a diverse audience and fan base?
These questions are not easy to answer. But the universal story of humanity and calling that is evident within the show, is a theme that is found throughout the life of all people. With that in mind this blog seeks to bring the cult classic Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Christian thought (both historical and contemporary), and us (you and I) into conversation with vocation.

I'm just going on record as one who has never seen this show. I think I've been busy with other things...
Kim-
As one of those "professional academics" who has written about Buffy, I just wanted to mention that even a seasoned Buffy scholar can find lots of value on this site. Good work collecting all this.
Since I teach at a Jesuit school, I often talk about Buffy in the context of vocation. I'm sure I'll be recommending your site to many people. Thanks for providing this resource.

it's unfortunate that you don't have more hits, or more posts. even a year and a half later, i'd be willing to interact with some of these thoughts! i'm about to post about Buffy on my current blog - check it out sometime.
