Convention Confessions 101 - Fanboy Expo Knoxville July 2023

Welcome to a BRAND NEW FOJ podcast series called "Convention Confessions", where we take a behind-the-scenes look at our FOJ convention experiences! For this first episode, I take you through the good, the bad, and the ugly of Fanboy Expo Knoxville (FYI, you need a WAGON not a HAND TRUCK for convention set-up), and also talk a little about the WGA & SAG-AFTRA strike (I'm an actor, so it's personal to me!). Hope you enjoy!

The Faithful Fan, Ep. 408: "How Ariel's Grotto Can Bring Us Closer to God"

"A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what a ship is built for." This was an exciting opportunity to speak with the community group Uncommon, hosted by my good friend Chris Williams! I have been absolutely loving the newest Little Mermaid movie, and wanted to talk more in depth about Ariel's grotto, what and where our own personal grotto is, and how that can also bring us closer to God. Listen in, and I hope this will be encouraging for you and maybe also prompt some good questions for your own faith journey!

The Faithful Fan, Ep. 407: "Across the Spider-verse with Guest Chris Williams"

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse was an incredible experience, so much so that my roommate and I actually went to see it twice! Today’s devotional is all about the link between the Spider-verse, Miles Morales, and our walk as believers. But, I thought I’d have my amazing friend, Chris Williams, bring it to you today! So give him a shout, and head to wherever you get your podcasts to give the full devotional a listen🎧

The Faithful Fan, Ep. 406: "The Little Mermaid & a Father Who Listens"

🧜🏼‍♂️"You shouldn't have had to give up your voice to be heard."🧜🏼‍♀️ Do you ever desperately wish that someone, anyone, was hearing you? Truly listening, truly seeing you and understanding your point of voice? Unfortunately we all know what it's like to feel angry, defeated, and backed into a corner. And we see Ariel feel this way too in The Little Mermaid, which leads her down a path of regret with Ursula. But we also see, through King Triton's own character development, his love for her, sacrifice for her, and his path to truly listening to her. His relationship to her is a beautiful shadow of the immense love that God the Father has for each of us, and the sacrifice He willingly gave to have a relationship with us. God hears us, knows us intimately, and is with us every step of the way. Listen in to hear more about The Little Mermaid remake and our gospel connections with it!
