  • Peter is Crouching at Your Door Desiring to Have You

    What is Peter Pan? Is he a boy? A Fairy? A dream? Perhaps an angel of death? I would argue that he is not only a depiction of a demon who comes to steal little boys and girls from their nurseries while the children’s parents are indisposed, but also an allegory for our current state. An allusion to the way that we have let our guard down today, allowing the demons of self-pleasure, selfishness, lust, and ignorance make a move on our well-being, security, and physical and metaphysical bodies.

  • “Mature Brats”: Adults Who Won’t Grow Up

    In this episode we explore what it means to be an adult. Today’s society tells us that we can be anything we want. It goes as far as to redefine the things around us, so that we can go on pretending to be something that we are not. So let’s get rid of all the political idiocy and get down to the root of the word adult. What is it? Does Jesus’ teaching of approaching God with a child-like faith contradict the assertion that we should seek out mature responsibility? Absolutely not! God tells us many times that we must put our whole and unfettered trust in God, but we must still assume the responsibility of an adult for our actions. In this episode we ask the important question:

    WHAT IS AN ADULT?

    And

    We plead with society and Mr. Darling specifically to grow up and take responsibility.

  • Peter Pan Chapter 1 - Narration

    “All children, except one, grow up.” This ONE is Peter Pan, and I ask you to join me as we discover a classical story about a land of magic, fairies, and fantastical adventures. Not only do we discover through this series the joys of being young, using our imagination, and a child-like faith, but we also discover the pitfalls that we can apply to our society today. This episode narrates chapter 1 of the classic Peter Pan by J.M. Barrie in which we are introduced to the Darlings and their faithful nurse Nana. We hear the first mention of the Neverlands that each of the Darling children visit in their dreams, and discover Peter Pan, a boy that is just Wendy’s size in mind and body who Mrs. Darling once knew when she was a girl.
