Scott Pilgrim vs Himself (Faith & Film 4)

In this episode of Practically Christian, we dive into Scott Pilgrim vs. the World to explore how identity, self-respect, and spiritual growth shape our relationships and faith.

Scott’s journey isn’t just about winning Ramona—it’s about transformation. We unpack his false self-perception, the difference between self-respect and works-based validation, and why his ultimate victory comes not from the "Power of Love" but from the "Sword of Self-Respect."

Along the way, we reflect on the gospel’s contrast between striving for love and receiving grace (Ephesians 2:8-10), discuss the dangers of unhealthy relationship patterns, and ask what Christians can learn from Scott’s battle with himself—his own worst enemy.

Join us as we break down how true transformation happens through grace, self-awareness, and learning to love others as redeemed, not perfect, people.
