Soul (movie review)

February 5, 2021 by Garrett O’Hara

Though originally intended for theatrical release, Disney/Pixar’s Soul was released on Disney+ on Christmas last year given the present pandemic. Christians may rightly already be skeptical just by virtue of the film’s title and its dealing with souls. Weird metaphysics are to be expected, but there’s also a skewed sense of justice that’s worth examining […]

I Still Believe: Official Movie Review (No Spoilers)

May 9, 2020 by Michael Coughlin

I Still Believe Jeremy Camp is a singer and songwriter who is popular in the Contemporary Christian Music scene. I believe his music is more Christ-centered and explicitly Christian than most of what is produced in the 21st century under the heading of “Christian.” To my knowledge, he hasn’t disqualified himself or brought public reproach […]

Rapid Response (movie review)

September 4, 2019 by Garrett O’Hara

With the deaths of Jessi Combs and Anthoine Hubert coming not long before its theatrical release in September 2019, Rapid Response is a grim reminder of a certain sentiment of every race fan: it stinks to watch drivers die. The other side of that is this: we in 2019 have it “pretty good” compared to decades […]

Giveaway and Review: The Pilgrim’s Progress

April 3, 2019 by Michael Coughlin

Movie Review I count it a great privilege that bloggers are asked to review movies and books. It gives me an opportunity to preview things before the general public, and in many cases, I probably wouldn’t spend the money, so it allows me to enjoy something I otherwise wouldn’t enjoy. Stay with me for my […]

Little Women — Movie Review

September 24, 2018 by Michael Coughlin

Little Women, a modern adaptation of the classic Louisa May Alcott story opens in theaters, Friday, September 28. I believe I was quite privileged to receive a pre-view of this film and recommend that you see it also, with a few caveats. A Story Brilliant storytelling is not easy. In the history of the world, […]

I Can Only Imagine – Official Movie Review

March 26, 2018 by Michael Coughlin

I Can Only Imagine still with Sean Astin and Dennis Quaid

If you told me that somewhere in a secret lab a group of scientists spliced the DNA of Sean Astin (Rudy, Amazing Love) and combined it with DNA from Kevin James (King of Queens, Kevin Can Wait) in order to create J. Michael Finley, the main character of I Can Only Imagine, I would not […]

Paul, Apostle of Christ – Official Movie Review

March 23, 2018 by Allen Nelson IV

Paul, Apostle of Christ still image

Well, there are a couple of firsts surrounding this post. I had never ‘prescreened’ a movie before. I have never written an official movie review before. That’s all changed now, thanks to the new movie set to release on March 23, 2018 Paul, Apostle of Christ. I have tried my absolute best to not give away any […]

Paul, Apostle of Christ – Movie Review

February 9, 2018 by Allen Nelson IV

Paul, Apostle of Christ still image

Update (26 March 2018): The review is now out! —GPO Due to a something called a “film embargo,” I have been asked to temporarily remove this review until the film releases March 28. I have never been involved in movie pre-screenings so I wasn’t even aware of this practice! I will say this: A lot of […]

Put Me Through The Concussion Protocol: I’m Optimistic About The Bears

Do I have a concussion? I don’t remember a line-backer from the Jacksonville Jaguars committing a pointless penalty against me in the AFC Championship Game by spearing me right in the head. That was Gronk, not me, right? If I don’t have some sort of brain injury, then what, pray-tell, is going on with all of […]

Judge the Left Rightly

Michael Avenatti made headlines a few months back when he represented some women who accused a Supreme Court nominee of various crimes. Regardless of one’s political affiliations or feelings toward President Trump, there was reasonable doubt as to the guilt of the accused. Throughout the charade, there was, unfortunately, a real lack of the presumption […]

Banned! A Curious Story from G3 2020

However, one other thing emerged from those talks as well: the G3 audience may disagree with the methods the Hardings employ, but they don’t necessarily disagree with the message they bring. In perhaps the most surprising finding of this entire investigation, some G3 attendees told me repeatedly that their issue was HOW the Hardings communicated, not what they communicated. There is a sizable subset that both sympathized with Buice and agreed with the Hardings. I was shocked to find that as annoyed as many were with the Hardings, some G3 attendees I spoke with were almost as annoyed with MacArthur.

Psalm 96:10 Jesus Reigns!

Jesus Reigns! Psalm 96 is like a lot of passages of the Bible—this chapter isn’t simply written about a single topic. Psalm 96 references our need to sing to the Lord Jesus Christ (Psalm 96:1-2), evangelize the nations (Psalm 96:2-3), fear the Lord (Psalm 96:4), recognize Him as Creator and everything else as an idol […]
