Obsession, Backrooms, and the case for Christians watching horror (feat. Michael Kern)

Michael Kern is back to talk about Christians and horror. Why the genre gets singled out, how conscience and worldview shape what we watch, and what horror can reveal about fear, evil, catharsis, and redemption. Then we discuss the surprise horror hits Backrooms and Obsession, why these indie films are resonating, and what their stories might have to say about desire, trauma, consent, and freedom.

are you saved? depends what you mean... (feat. Trent Norkus)

Trent joins me to explore the meaning of the word “saved” in the Bible, and the Protestant tendency to narrow the focus of that idea. We discuss how Scripture uses salvation language to talk about justification, sanctification, and glorification—and argue that salvation is much broader than our language would often indicate.
