Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we land behind enemy lines in episode 2 of Band of Brothers, Day of Days. At a time when men are increasingly alone and isolated, the solution is to find and engage in a shared mission. The soldiers find themselves in the wrong drop zone, in the dark, undermanned, ill-equipped and a long way from where they should be. Instead of waiting for what they needed to show up, or checking out of the mission all together, they started walking and along the way, found the brothers they needed to accomplish their assignment. Join us as we discover God’s truth in this story.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we use the series Band of Brothers to reveal the path of our masculine initiation. Maturation and whole heartedness are not optional to survive the world we live in. The process begins with consent, volunteering to receive the training we need to fight the battles we will face. The process will be painful, costly, and beautiful. But it is a path that leads to greater life, and freedom-for ourselves, and those entrusted to our care. Hi ho silver, and let’s discover God’s truth in this story.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we ring in the new year with 8-Bit Christmas. We can focus so much on the areas we feel behind, the areas of lack, that we miss the places where we are winning. As we enter the new year, instead of looking at what we want to accomplish, let’s focus on who we want to become. When we do that, the what will follow the who. Join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we kick off our Christmas season with Violent Night. Like Santa, we feel burned out, unnecessary, valued for what we provide more than who we are. The only way to fix it is to get involved in messy, costly situations, pulling a past we’d like to forget into the present to engage where our presence is most needed. It won’t be easy, it will get ugly, but it’s the only way to get our purpose back. Let’s find our ho, ho, ho’s, and discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we celebrate our three year anniversary with The Big Lebowski. This example of great art allows us to look at the story and interpret it in a variety of ways. On the one hand, this movie reflects the meaninglessness of life in a style very similar to the book of Ecclesiastes. Each character is searching for meaning but keeps coming up empty. The Dude, however, from a certain perspective, shows the power of identity. He is calm in the face of struggle, cares about the people he interacts with, and finds contentment without striving. The Dude abides, so join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we go on the run with The Next Three Days. When facing a hopeless and helpless situation, love is inherently irrational. We discuss loving our wives well in the face of the evidence that says we’ve done enough. We offer compassion without expecting a response, die on her behalf many times in a manner that never gets easier. Let’s pursue the irrationality and join us as we discover God’s truth in this movie.
