Coming up on this 4th anniversary episode of the Men at the Movies podcast, we discuss one of the greatest movies of all time, The Godfather. These movies awaken a desire for belonging, but also the ability to take justice into our own hands. However, it's very easy for injustice to become a great reason to justify further injustice. In our own way, each one of us wants to be the one pulling the strings. Leave the gun, take the cannoli and join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. Questions What is your favorite mafia movie? What does it mean to be dangerous? What is the difference between vengeance and justice? Which one do you typically want? How does redemption and forgiveness change the outcome? How are the Godfather and God the Father similar? How are they different? What can we learn from this?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we study the character of My Cousin Vinny. The man we meet hides inside his leather jacket, wanting to get things done his way and on his terms. Eventually, as we all will discover, he reaches a point where it just doesn't work anymore. Thankfully, being in a no-win situation is a recipe for transformation. Join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. About Juan I'm Juan Velazquez, a social media content creator and travel consultant. My love for movies traces back to the dark bodegas in Newark, NJ, where back rooms were filled with VHS tapes for rent in the 80s – long before I mastered tying proper shoelaces, lol. My passion for film deepened at John Burroughs HS in Burbank, CA, and the Los Angeles County College complex by the Warner Bros. movie lot. There, I delved into filmmaking, fostering an appreciation for the art. Today, I indulge in watching, critiquing, and immersing myself in captivating stories on the silver screen. Occasionally, I'll quietly explore my secret hobby of putting pen to paper and crafting short stories. Find him at his website, follow him on Facebook, and check out The Travel People podcast on Spotify or Facebook. Questions What is your armor when you enter into unfamiliar territory? When have you coasted on your gifts only to realize that wasn't enough? What happened? How did that feel? What are your gifts? What are you good at? What comes easy for you? Where do you resist asking for help? Where do you feel like you don't need help, but life's not working? Would you say that you're the same person in every situation? If not, which one do you like the most? Which one do you like the least? Describe these characters. What goal have you set that you haven't achieved that is keeping you from what you long for?

This conversation with Sam Eldredge was one of the most fun conversations I've had at Men at the Movies, so I am pulling The Empire Strikes Back out of the mothballs for this month.  With so many options and themes we could've gone with, we focused on Luke's pursuit of identity.  He had accomplished everything he had dreamed of on Tattoine, but the more success he had, the more it pulled him from his true calling.  It took a supernatural intervention to get him where he needed to go. Never tell me the odds, and lets discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Where do you feel like Luke: adrift without a mentor, training on Dagobah, fighting a battle that's over your head, dealing with the unthinkable? How have you simplified your story into black and white?  Where should there be more gray? What do you tie your legacy to? What's the pinnacle of your existence?  How many decisions do you make?  How often are you doing what others tell you to do? Where do you feel like you're killing it?  How can success pull you away from your true identity? Where do you feel comfortable? What feels risky? Uncertain? Unready? What kind of man do you want to be? What battle do you engage in feeling unprepared? What past mistakes has God redeemed?  How has He created something beautiful from what you regret?

Coming up on this month's rerun selection, I pulled up Dune (part 1) from January of 2022.  One of the main themes is fear as a motivator.  What do you do when fear attacks, and threatens to take over?  How do you defeat it?  You've got to train, and prepare, even if you don't feel like it. It's in those moments of preparation that victory will be assured.  Questions What can I do now to prepare for the future ahead?  Family traditions? Meals? How can you discipline yourself now to prepare for the dreams God has given you? What obstacles keep you from putting in the preparation for what will come? What dreams do you have?  For your marriage?  For your children?  For work? For friendships?  What must be done today to create the vision you have for the future? What opposition do you face?  What are big ways your faith has been shaken?  How is it shaken in little things as well? Would anyone ask you about the hope you have, or the grouchiness?  What would you tell them? How can you develop the discipline of listening to God? What is your interpretation of the holidays?  Of the upcoming year?  How does God interpret these events? How do you fight for control in the middle of a storm? When was the last time you were angry?  What fear was behind the anger? What verse can be a mantra for you in times of stress and crisis?

Welcome to the Men at the Movies rerun series. This conversation originally aired in June 2022, but it's Field of Dreams. It's timeless. In a vibrant life with God, He is always offering invitations to us.  But we must cultivate the conscious awareness to notice when He is speaking.  And when we embrace the risk and act on what he says, the story will always be better than we thought it would be.  So let's follow the voice and go the distance, and discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Where have you heard or experienced God's voice in your life? Where have you done something crazy that didn't make sense to anyone else? How did that turn out? How do you feel if you don't follow the voice? What bold moves God is inviting you to participate in? What are the small moves, the internal shifts, God is inviting you to engage in? What is God up to in your life? Where do you feel like your life is in a small story? Where do you feel fenced in?  Where do you try to make your life larger than it is right now?  When have you heard a voice that sounds like it might be reckless?

Coming up on the men at the movies podcast, we slay some dragons with Reign of Fire. If the dragons are symbols for sin, we see two flawed approaches. For Van Zandt, his life is obsessed with killing dragons and taking back territory in a legalistic manner. Quinn is always on defense and has a defeatist mentality. The problem with both perspectives is that they focus on the dragons, and not life. In the same way, we focus on sin when we should be focused on the Savior. It's time to kick out the squatters, and take some territory back this week on the Men at the Movies podcast. Questions Which approach to sin have you taken in your life? How have you seen one little decision snowball into “thousands” of regrets? Where do you feel helpless from sin? What territory has it taken? What would it look like to take territory back from the dragons in your life? How have you identified by your sin instead of your salvation?

Encanto: How Spiritual Gifts Can Create Division Instead of Unity

Men at the Movies

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 5, 2024 57:54


Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we explore different archetypes of spiritual gifts in Encanto. Mirabel represents those of us who feel invisible, less gifted, and left out. Louisa and Isabel reveal the constant pressure our gifts can create—the pressure to always show up, always be perfect, and always say yes. In Bruno, we see how our gifts can even screw things up, be seen as unhelpful and unwanted. It's only when we learn to value the person over the performance that we can truly be a unified body of Christ. We don't talk about Bruno…but we will as we discover God's truth in this movie. Questions Which character do you resonate with? What are your gifts? How do you use them? What gift do you wish you had? What's behind that desire? How has your role defined your responsibility? Where do you feel left out of the family picture? Where do you feel invisible? Unappreciated? Where do you feel pressure to be perfect? To always show up? What would it be like to let someone else do it, and fail? What would it be like to take a break? Do you feel like you can't afford a mistake? How do you respond when you feel like your gift isn't helping? Isn't wanted? Not useful? Check out our YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/@menatthemovies) for bonus content.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we talk about Joe vs the Volcano. Joe is a man who was losing his soul. A man that life happens to. A man that, frankly, needs to get his balls back. This movie is about a man's journey to become who he was meant to be. And like us, he can't get to where he wants to be without going through hardship and struggle. May you live to be a thousand years old, sir, and let's discover God's truth in this movie. About Paul Nichols Paul Nichols is a son, husband and dad in Cincinnati, OH. He works in a small custom cabinet shop, loves finding Eternal Truths in movies and will discuss those Truths with anyone who will sit still long enough, preferably around a fire with good whisky and a cigar. Paul also works with a team of like-hearted allies helping men recover their hearts at Man Camp in Cincinnati (find out more at mancamp.us). When he's not watching movies, spends as much time as possible outside with his wife, 3 kids & 2 dogs.  Questions When have you let fear dictate who you became? Where do you feel like you're asleep? Where do you feel like you're awake (or waking up)? What did you want to be when you were a child? What happened? Where do you feel powerless? Where do you feel ruled by men with fake testicles? What are you afraid to do? How did a shipwreck get you to where you needed to be? What parts of you are still asleep?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we close out our Band of Brothers series with episode 10, Points. By now, you know that the only way forward is through walking shoulder to shoulder with other men. You have to consent to this process, volunteer to jump in their foxholes. These men went from Toccoa to England to France and finally to Germany because they went through the process of being called, and chosen, and finally faithful. And they became heroes along the way. Join me as we discover God's truth in their story. About Conrad Conrad is a grateful husband of 10 years to a bright and truth-telling bride, Samantha. He is a father of two beautifully strong and joyful daughters, Sienna and Crimson. And also is father to a rowdy and radical son named Braddock. He serves as the Discipleship Coordinator at Wild at Heart Ministries and is a co-producer of the Become Good Soil Podcast. He loves coffee, sunshine, camping, brotherhood, whiskey, concerts with Samantha, exercise, hunting, writing, coaching, beer, his counselor, Jesus, football, ice baths and burritos....not in that order.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we continue on to Carentan in our Band of Brothers series. At some point in our masculine initiation, fear takes over and we have to respond. We can hide in our foxhole screaming as the world blows up around us. We can numb ourselves to the fear, minimizing it. Fear can make us lose hope as we die to our dreams and purpose. Or we can listen to that still small voice telling us to stand up and start fighting once again. Join us as we discover God's truth in this story. Questions When have you felt most afraid? From a physical standpoint, where do you feel fear? In your head, your chest, your neck, your abdomen? Why do you think your fear exhibits itself in those areas? How do you express fear? Do you freeze, fight, or flee? What is your core fear? Letting someone down? Not being/doing enough? Making a mistake? How has vulnerability and honesty set you free from fears? How has your fear been minimized instead of faced? How do you try to numb your fears? Where do you feel hopeless, like you're dead already? When have you felt like you were cowering in a foxhole? How did you stand up and start fighting back? Check out our YouTube channel (www.youtube.com/@menatthemovies) for bonus content.

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we land behind enemy lines in episode 2 of Band of Brothers, Day of Days. At a time when men are increasingly alone and isolated, the solution is to find and engage in a shared mission. The soldiers find themselves in the wrong drop zone, in the dark, undermanned, ill-equipped and a long way from where they should be. Instead of waiting for what they needed to show up, or checking out of the mission all together, they started walking and along the way, found the brothers they needed to accomplish their assignment. Join us as we discover God's truth in this story. Questions How do you identify fellow soldiers? What are you first? What is your core identity? In what ways have you “lost your radio?” How did you respond to that situation? How do you feel in the dark? A long way from where you need to be? Unprepared? Ill-equipped? Undermanned?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we use the series Band of Brothers to reveal the path of our masculine initiation. Maturation and whole heartedness are not optional to survive the world we live in. The process begins with consent, volunteering to receive the training we need to fight the battles we will face. The process will be painful, costly, and beautiful. But it is a path that leads to greater life, and freedom-for ourselves, and those entrusted to our care. Hi ho silver, and let's discover God's truth in this story. Questions Who is your favorite character in Band of Brothers? Why? Who do you dislike the most? What do you dislike about him? What is your favorite episode of the series? What draws you to that episode? How does the approach of being initiated change your perspective on your life and what you have faced? What does it mean to consent to the process of becoming wholehearted? How do you open the door and let Jesus in each day? Where is that difficult? What crowns are you striving for that don't last?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we ring in the new year with 8-Bit Christmas. We can focus so much on the areas we feel behind, the areas of lack, that we miss the places where we are winning. As we enter the new year, instead of looking at what we want to accomplish, let's focus on who we want to become. When we do that, the what will follow the who. Join us as we discover God's truth in this movie. Questions What was the greatest gift you received as a kid? What was a gift you really wanted that you never got? Looking back over the year, where are you winning? What are you proud of? What have you accomplished? In the past year, what's not working? Where do you feel behind, missing out? What is lacking? What of these things do you have any control over? Where has your joy been choked out by the pressures to perform? What are some ways you can choose an act of defiance against the busyness you feel? Where do you feel the most pressure to perform, to be perfect? How do you invite God into your plans? Your work? Your marriage? Where is God thwarting you so that you can find more life in Him?

Coming up on the Men at the Movies podcast, we wish you a merry Christmas with The Muppet Christmas Carol. Based on the novel by Charles Dickens, this story is a reflection of the gospel—Scrooge is a man in misery until a supernatural intervention leads to transformation and joy. How does it happen? By revealing the truth of the past to explain the present resulting in the changed future. Merry Christmas, and let's explore God's truth in this movie. Questions How generous are you with your time? Money? Affection? Presence? How easy is it to reconcile with your father? Mother? Siblings? What is your approach to work? How does your heart respond to the principle of “Work hard. Work long. Be constructive?” How have you given Jesus your sin but not your story? What moments have impacted the man you are today? How have you turned to a woman (or women) as a way out, as a rescue from your misery and aloneness? What choices in your past have hurt you or the ones you loved?
