When power slips away, what happens next reveals who we truly are. In Netflix’s Adolescence, both Jamie and Eddie face the collapse of control—one through domination, the other through despair. Jamie’s need to feel powerful drives him deeper into destruction, while Eddie breaks under the guilt of realizing he couldn’t rescue his son.

In this episode of Men at the Movies, we talk about what it means to live in that moment of powerlessness—when you can’t fix it, when the weight is too heavy, and when all that’s left is surrender. God doesn’t waste that weight; it’s where grace does its best work.
