Lord, Forgive Us Our Cinema
"The wages of cinema is death."
A movie podcast where theology meets banter.
In each episode, we discuss a film that we love (or love to hate). We explore it through a series of prompts, like "Who would you pray for in this movie?" or "Would this movie be better with Kirk Cameron?"
It's part movie review, part spiritual reflection. All good times.

“Wow, what a phenomenal movie. My heart is full of optimism about what the superhero genre is yet to become.”
— Jarrad McDaniel, 2008, probably.
The Dark Knight was a fun time because it wasn’t a movie for movie fans. It was a movie for people who like living.
“Do you enjoy joy, good sir? Allow me to introduce you to Christopher Nolan’s finest work.”
It’s honestly hard to say something new about a film like this. But darn it if we aren’t gonna try anyways.
Is the Joker really a symbol of the Antichrist? What are Batman’s spiritual gifts? What’s the deal with that scene in Hong Kong?
We’ll discuss these and so much more.
