How do you know who the true main character is in a story and what does it look like to have main character energy?

Show notes

It's just the boys in this episode, and they dive into the nerdy, quirky, and sometimes downright unpopular things we can’t help but love! From movies and games that get a bad rap to underdog characters and even candy we root for, we explore why we’re drawn to things that aren’t always mainstream. But it’s not just about fandoms—being a Christian can feel the same way in today’s culture. Join us as we talk about staying true to our passions and faith, even when they’re not the popular choice. Plus, we’ll look at what the Bible has to say about walking the “narrow path” and why sometimes the best things in life are the ones few appreciate.

Pick and Choose: The Dangers of Selective Faith and Fandom Sep 17, 2024

Show notes

In this episode, we dive into the habit of ignoring certain parts of fandom—whether it's pretending Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull never happened or dismissing the Star Wars sequels. But what happens when we apply that same pick-and-choose mentality to our faith? Join us as we explore the dangers of selective belief, where Christians accept the easy and trendy parts of the Gospel while ignoring the challenging truths. We'll pull examples from pop culture and look at what the Bible says about living out the whole truth of our faith, not just the parts we like. Plus, we'll discuss how ignoring the full story—whether in fandom or in faith—affects us in the long run. Don’t miss this thought-provoking conversation!

When Good Guys Break Bad (and vice versa) Aug 20, 2024

Show notes

We're back for season nein (nine) and we're talking about heel turns (and face turns.)

If Robert Downey Jr can go from being the MCU's greatest hero to its most feared villain, what is stopping any of us from doing the same? And if God's grace really is for everyone, no matter how far gone, then what's stopping hurting, broken, darkside us from becoming the good guy?
