Get ready for a LOT of movie quotes because today, Connor and Jacob talk through Connor's all-time favorite movie: Space Jam! The PopCR boys ended up surprised by how this light-hearted, family-friendly comedy opened up a conversation about what justice looks like to those who are also victims of injustice done on them. But that's just how the Holy Spirit works sometimes! Interested to see how we get there? Let's dive in!

In today's special episode, we look back on two years of episodes; two years of community; two years of learning how to see God at work in the world! And we invited others into the process! Over Zoom, we shared stories of the impact of the show with some of our dedicated listeners and then each of the PopCR team shared how they would redeem their favorite Disney Villain - how we can see the Gospel in the character most people would doom because of who they are (being the bad guys). If Jesus wouldn't let the least of us go unseen by His love, then neither should we! Let's dive in!

In today's episode, Connor, Jacob, and Mallory take a trip back to their younger years with 2003's "Freaky Friday" and watched a family, each stuck in their own grief of a husband and father who passed away, and dealing with the change of bringing in a new member of the family: Tess's fiancé (and new step-father) Ryan. In our conversation, the Lord showed us the power of love and empathy being the key out of many of the struggles in our lives that leave us stuck and numbing out to avoid the pain.
Are you wanting to reach the other side of numb and into the healing the Lord may have for you today? Let's dive in!

In today's episode, Connor, Jacob, and Priscilla had an amazing conversation about what God had to show us in Christopher Nolan's award-winning film, "Interstellar" - how do we balance the immediate details in our lives and the greater mission God has for us? Where do we find our greatest source of inspiration? Is it really from survival? That seems heartless! So what is it?

In today's episode, Connor and Jacob discuss the attractive freedom of Ferris Bueller. Even though his actions and motivations aren't the best, Ferris portrays a confidence and boldness that is just so attractive. Why is that? When you compare the way he approaches life to that of Cameron Fry, Principal Rooney, or even Ferris' sister, you have to admit that Ferris seems like he's on a whole other level! Let's talk about it!

In today's episode, the PopCR team decided to take a break from the summer heat and talk about the Gospel story seen in Disney's "Frozen." One person sacrificing their life to save someone they love? Love drives out all fear? I wonder what God might have to say in this movie! Let's get started!

In today's episode, Connor & Jacob dive into the historical fiction, 20-year-later-sequel, "Gladiator 2." There's so much to unpack in the themes from this movie: from living in our God-given freedom & purpose, to using our Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God (but which word?) to taking a hard look in the mirror and see if we, as the Church, are being part of the problem or the solution. Plus, how do we respond to a world determined to destroy and injure? Let's dive in!

Disney's "Encanto" tells a beautiful story of a family, originally afraid of showing their flaws and afraid of the gifts they've been given, come back out into the light and into freedom by someone who didn't fit the mold. Sound familiar? In this episode, Connor, Jacob, and Priscilla tackle topics like:
- Finding confidence in our God-given gifts
- Learning the real focus of Christianity is what God has done for us
- Being set apart as a community rather than in isolation
Ready to learn how to be Christ's Ambassadors to the world in a movie like "Encanto?"

Hello and welcome to Pop Culture Redemption, a show dedicated to helping you see God in Pop Culture! In order to be Christ's Ambassadors to the world, we must be able to speak their language; to know their desires. What better way to understand the desires of people in the world than to evaluate the very advertisements tailor-made to reaching them? In today's episode, we're interacting with Super Bowl Commercials from a faith perspective, rejoicing what is good, rejecting what is bad, and redeeming those moments that point us and the world to Jesus.
