J.R.R. Tolkien joins the conversation for Pop Culture Redemption's first trilogy, and there were so many great things to talk about! Connor and Jacob have both read (or are reading) the books and go into length about the movie, any opinions on Peter Jackson's interpretation of certain characters, the comparison of Frodo's life to the spiritual journey, and finding the root of our desires.

We hope that our conversation helps you see where you might find yourself in the journey from stepping out of the Shire and walking to Mordor. Let's get started!!

Happy Thanksgiving from Pop Culture Redemption!

We understand how difficult the holiday season can be, especially with family! And what a better example of family chaos gone crazy than in the 1990 Christmas classic, "Home Alone!" In this episode, Connor & Mallory talked a lot about the heart of a lot of family dynamic issues - the fear of having to let things go, as well as what God had to show them in the interactions of each of these wacky characters!

Happy Halloween from Pop Culture Redemption! We are a podcast and ministry seeking to equip every follower of Jesus with the bold, passionate, divine authority that He has already given us!

In today's episode, Connor, Jacob, and Mallory dive into Disney-Pixar's movie, "Coco," learning where love wins when fear tries to take over. Love keeps us from "seizing the moment" when fear causes us to fight for what we think we need. Love breaks down walls when fear builds them up. Love keeps our eyes open to where God is at work in our ordinary lives.

Where do you see love in your life?
