Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I seek the glimpses of the gospel found in the Disney movie Hercules. In his attempt to find a place of belonging, Hercules chases his worth through accomplishments. Doing things. Being famous. But it’s only through the power of self-sacrificial love that he defeats evil and becomes the hero he’s meant to be. Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I talk with Britt Mooney and Sarah Daniels about the Neverending Story. We all get tempted to either lose ourselves in escapism or busyness. But great stories have the capacity to reveal our worth and our identity. We were never meant to live an ordinary life. Every real story…is a never-ending story. Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I talk with Troy and Stacy Hooker about the Bourne Identity. This movie reveals two of our greatest desires: to discover who we are and to be really good at something. Even though Jason couldn’t remember his past, his actions revealed his true identity. If we stay here, we die. Join me on the journey as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Questions

About Troy and Stacy 

As followers of Jesus and former teachers, Troy and Stacy Hooker founded Descendant Publishing in 2019 with the vision of producing epic fiction and fantasy books and media for youth and adults. With the books they publish, they also aim to provide creative companion workbooks to help readers increase their literacy skills.  

Aside from taking on the role of managing editor for Descendant Publishing, Troy is also the author of the Descendants of Light series, a young adult fantasy epic trilogy about a boy that discovers that he has been given the gift of light to fight against dark beings from another world. Troy also has a new series coming out this year called "The Demon Tide," and hopes that books one and two will be available by fall. 

Stacy is the design editor for Descendant Publishing, and also manages an Etsy shop of handmade items and zero-waste kitchen goods. 

They love the outdoors and often seek God in the quieter places of life. You can find Troy and Stacy traveling in their converted school bus, searching for elusive mushrooms or quiet beaches in the woods of Michigan.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, what better way to celebrate Easter than by talking about a movie with an invisible 6 foot rabbit? Britt and I discuss Harvey because the way Elwood acts is instructive for those of us who believe we walk around with an invisible God beside us. How can we tangibly experience the presence of an unseen God? And what impact would that have on the way we see life and treat other people? For years I was smart. I prefer pleasant. You may quote me. Join me as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I sit down with Dustin Oprea to talk about Only the Brave, a true story about the Granite Mountain Hotshots, wildfire firefighters from Arizona. We dwell on this line, “We don’t see things as they are. We see things as we are.” We only live to the identity we have received and we have embraced. How can this help us in our initiation and discipleship to become more like Jesus? Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I discuss Moana with Corey Stumne.  Brokenness comes in many forms.  Tafiti had something sacred stolen from her.  Maui was rejected by those whose acceptance he needed.  Moana was broken by her failure.  We have also been broken. Thankfully we have a savior who has crossed the horizon to find us, who knows who we are, and can give us our hearts back.  What can I say except you’re welcome, and let’s discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies Podcast, I talk with Britt about one of his favorite movies of all time, Stranger than Fiction.  Stories like this one force us to look at ourselves and ask what are we doing with our lives.  Like Harold, when we face the truth of our mortality, we realize what matters most and what makes life meaningful.  And when our life is worth living, our death is not a tragedy. “little did he know” changes everything, so join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, Rob Porter and I discuss the Horse Whisperer.  We see how trauma can become a holy invitation to walk with God.  But in order to deal with our pain, we must create boundaries in order to create space.  And if we can do that, we can become a man like Tom:  A man who knows who he is, where he belongs, and what he has to offer.  Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, I talk with Dustin Oprea about the rom-com The Proposal.  We live our lives trying to control the narrative that others have for us, but that only makes us slaves to them and the way they think.  Freedom is being able to walk in a way that isn’t dependent on how others see you.  The easy road involves trying to achieve control, but that way only leads to death.  The narrow road is difficult, but we find life at the end.  It takes two to make a thing go right, so join me as we discover God’s truth in this movie.
