In this fanciful, pointed episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we take a historical cinematic journey to a fascinating queer cinema specimen in the 1969 film, The Gay Decievers, directed by Bruce Kessler and starring Michael Greer. This podcast is no slouch when it comes to exploring the occasional historical artifact, and this instance is no different. Will this supposed snapshot of Vietnam-Era commentary stand the test of time, and if so, in a good way or a bad way? We shall see.
This is the first part of a four part study over the book of Ephesians. This lesson analyzes chapter 1:1-14 and discusses who we are supposed be as Christians in Jesus Christ. As such, we may look to Paul's writing in Ephesians and see the wealth we attain when we receive Christ through baptism. We are rich in His glory, His blessings, and His mercy. We pray that this richness will motivate us to remain steadfast in our faith and trust in His will above our own.

So often do we find ourselves stuck in our lives. We might fall into contentment with how things are and forget to grow spiritually. We might decide to give up when pressed with sin, especially a sin we have been dealing with for a long time. This message looks at Philippians 3:12-14 and other passage of the New Testament to remind and encourage us to press on. To increase in love and wisdom and push past our pride or selfishness or weakness and rely on Jesus Christ as our comfort and motivation.

Bruce Kessler had a short but sweet racing career from 1953 to 1959. It started when he borrowed his mother’s XK120 Jag at the age of 17. He raced all over the world and Sports Illustrated called Bruce “Daring young Bruce Kessler.” He was sent to Le Mans in 1957 to drive for Porsche and tested for Centro Sud F1 250F Maserati in Modena. He drove for Scarab, raced Ferraris, and ran at exciting venues including The Cuban Grand Prix, the Nassau Classic, Sebring, Silverstone, Lime Rock, Watkins Glen, and Riverside. A serious accident ended his racing career and he landed in Hollywood where he became a film and television director. His film The Sound of Speed represented the USA at the Cannes Film Festival in 1962 and won the first Golden Eagle awarded by the American Film Institute. Just a few of his many other credits include The Monkees, The Flying Nun, Mission: Impossible, Marcus Welby, MD, and The Rockford Files, to name just a few.
