Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I have a conversation with filmmaker and content creator Chris Bowden from Refocus Creative. His desire is to create high quality, authentic stories. His goal is not to push people away, but to draw them to Jesus through what they see. Polished caricatures don’t move us to transform, but seeing the truth demonstrated in characters we relate to.
