The Flash, Flashpoint, and Faith: Understanding Sacrifice in Discipleship | Nerdy Sermon
Welcome back to Checkpoint Church, your hub for faith, gaming, and everything nerdy. Today we're diving into the multiverse of DC, specifically exploring the Flashpoint Paradox storyline as featured in 'The Flash' movie. Alongside our discussion, we'll be weaving in parallels from the Gospel of Luke 14:25-33, touching on the themes of sacrifice, discipleship, and making choices.
In this video, our Nerd Pastor, Nate, dissects the significance of Flashpoint in comic history and how it echoes the deep human question: If you could change the past, would you? But more than that, we explore what Jesus would have to say about it. From DC fanboy discussions to biblical interpretations, we're combining our favorite worlds.

Checkpoint Church is the place where all people from all walks of life are always welcomed with loving arms. We strive to steer clear from the modern temptations of being too ‘churchy’ or judgmental. We are the safe space for those who haven’t felt welcomed by the church before.
