  Sep 15, 20261h 28m

  Our supporters asked us for a favor: review The Godfather in honor of the passing of Robert Duvall. This is an episode you can't refuse! The Godfather is often considered the greatest movie of all time, so we've brought you the greatest podcast of all time. All we ask is that you show your loyalty by not consuming mindlessly. If you do, you'll learn what it takes to be a real godfather. You'll see how the sins of our society often cultivate organized crime and how the Corleone crime family mirrors some of the kingdoms described in the Bible. Join us, and you may discover how Jesus invites you into the eternal family and kingdom that you were ultimately created to belong to.

  12 Angry Men | Christian Movie Review (Ep 437)

  Aug 26, 20261h 8m

  You are invited to deliberate and deliver a verdict on the 1957 classic 12 Angry Men. This week Bridget and Miles are reminded of the importance of dialogue in understanding complex issues like justice and morality. This film not only entertains but also challenges us to engage critically with the question "what kind of man are you?" Are you humble enough to admit your own hypocrisy and the possibility that you may be wrong? If you spend time with this movie you may leave with a greater appreciation for each individual human life and your responsibility before God to support justice for everyone.
