In this episode, we’re discussing Zach Cregger's 2025 movie, Weapons. The film readily serves as a cathartic allegory about addictions – particularly, substance addiction – and how these addictions are maladaptive attempts to deal with pain.

But addiction doesn’t get the last word; there is hope for those in recovery.

We talk about the importance of a loving, supportive community in the road to recovery; more importantly, we talk about why the Christian gospel is the greater story that breaks addiction’s oppressive spell of shame and guilt – and truly sets us free.

In this episode, we're joined by missionary Mark Parsons of Truth in Love Ministries to discuss the 2024 film, Heretic.

Mark brings a ton of insight from his experiences ministering to current and ex-Mormons - and we really enjoyed chatting with him about the way the film treats conflicts of faith-verses-doubt and rationality-verses-spirituality.

In this episode, we’re talking about the 1997 sci-fi horror film Event Horizon, directed by Paul Anderson and written by Philip Eisner. This movie evokes common human fears of coming face to face with what we most regret in life – with brutality incarnate, and even with hell itself. We’re eager to tell you why the content of the good news of Jesus is the direct answer to these dark fears.
