Love or hate Christopher Nolan's take on The Odyssey? Agree or disagree with changes he made? It's certainly not the most radical revision of this ancient story, as this Coen Brothers' classic does (not to mention Wishbone). However, this is a great example of how (intentional or not) our narratives often have similarities with different window dressing. Revisit this beloved version set in 1930s Mississippi with OG hosts Richard and David.

What if the way a director frames a shot could teach you something about how to read Scripture—or how to parent, or how to trust God in a hard moment? In part two of their conversation on Wake Up Dead Man, the guys go deep on cinematography: how light, movement, and camera angles aren't just aesthetic choices but a filmmaker's way of telling you what to believe about a character — and what that has to do with the way God communicates with us. It's a conversation that starts with film theory and ends somewhere you probably didn't expect.

Christians Built Their Own Netflix? The Future of Christian Media & Content with Logos Cinema

Deplatforming is real. So two Orthodox filmmakers built their own infrastructure: “an Orthodox Netflix” designed to outlast trends and serve truth, goodness, and beauty. You can feel it the moment you walk into an Orthodox church: beauty isn't decoration, it's a doorway. That's the thread we pull with Logos Cinema (https://www.logoscinema.com/) founders Zachary Delaney and Andrew Stokich as they explain why they're building what many are calling “an Orthodox Netflix” and why it has to be more than a content library.• Beauty as a window into the divine through moving images• Why simple stories can carry the deepest Orthodox meaning• The hero's journey as a pattern that resonates with the Gospel and the lives of the saints• How COVID-era cultural pressure and distribution dead-ends sparked Logos Cinema• Orthodox phronema on screen, from saint stories to everyday sacrificial love• A convert filmmaker's struggle with “in the world, not of it” and the parable of the talents• Building independent infrastructure in response to censorship and demonetization• The bigger vision: networking creators, an Orthodox economy, and expanding beyond videoJeremy Jeremiah talks with Logos Cinema about icons as stories that are written, and how filmmaking can become “moving iconography,” a window into the divine without turning into preachy, low-quality Christian media. From Dostoyevsky's line “beauty will save the world” to the hero's journey that shows up across cultures, we explore why the most powerful films often plant a seed and let God do the slow work in the heart. Along the way, we get concrete: how distribution questions kill promising projects, why great films can still go unseen, and what it means to build a platform that can actually support Orthodox Christian filmmakers.Then we go deeper into the realities of the modern internet: demonetization, deplatforming, and the risk of building your creative life on platforms you don't control. Logos Cinema is aiming for independent infrastructure, global reach, and a growing Orthodox economy that supports creators and Orthodox-run businesses, while still refusing to become an echo chamber. We also dig into their curation criteria, including a priest advisory board and the careful, nuanced line between mature storytelling and spiritually harmful content.Can a streaming subscription become a counterculture act? Logos Cinema says yes: support creators, grow an Orthodox economy, and connect artists worldwide.If you care about Orthodox storytelling, faith and culture, and a serious future for Orthodox films, podcasts, and media, hit subscribe, share this conversation with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find it.Questions about Orthodoxy?

Many writers assume that Christian stories are defined by clean content, religious themes, or explicit references to faith. But a Christian worldview is not a genre.In this episode of The Storyteller's Mission, Zena Dell Lowe explains why many faith-based stories feel preachy, emotionally shallow, or dramatically ineffective despite their good intentions. More importantly, she reveals how writers can create stories that communicate biblical truth at a deep structural level without relying on overt religious content.Through examples from Die Hard, Lethal Weapon, Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters, and modern storytelling trends, you'll discover the difference between worldview and genre, truth and signaling, and why some secular stories often resonate more deeply than many faith-based films.Topics Covered:• Christian worldview vs Christian genre • Why faith-based films often struggle • Storytelling and moral truth • Die Hard and biblical morality • Lethal Weapon as moral storytelling • Principles vs rules in story • The problem with preachy writing • Writing stories that resonate • Biblical worldview in screenwriting • Christian storytelling and cultureCHAPTERS00:00 A Secular Story Can Tell More Truth 01:12 What People Mean by "Christian Film" 02:00 Why Die Hard Matters 03:00 Principles vs Rules 05:30 Compassion vs Justice 06:30 What a Worldview Really Is 07:10 Genre vs Worldview 08:20 The Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters Example 10:30 Why Nuance Matters 11:10 Secular Stories and Biblical Truth 11:25 Lethal Weapon vs Modern Storytelling 12:40 The Postmodern Worldview Shift 14:00 What Writing a Christian Worldview Actually Means 15:25 Stop Trying to Write Christian Stories 15:50 Why the Faith-Based Industry Struggles 17:35 What This Means for Writers 19:45 We Need More Truthful StoriesWatch this episode on YouTubeFree Resources for Writers:Seven Deadly Plot Points FREE TRAINING VIDEO Free Video Tutorial for ScreenwritingSign up for The Storyteller's Digest, my exclusive bi-monthly newsletter for writers and storytellers.

This week our Patreon Saints sent us back to the year 2000 to enjoy a classic comedy starry Brendan Fraser. Bedazzled is one of the many movies about the Devil that came out at the turn of the millennia. It may be a bit "one note" but it is very fun and it gave us the opportunity to dispel a few common myths about Satan. We explore the value of having a friend who listens to you (even if it's Elizabeth Hurley playing the devil) and how important it is to be sober minded and watchful because the Devil prowls like a lion seeking someone to devour (1 Peter 5:8).

This week, actor Milo Ventimiglia — known for 'This Is Us,' 'Gilmore Girls' and 'Heroes' — tells us why he chose to star in a new Christian movie, playing real-life worship artist Tim Timmons, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer over 20 years ago and is still defying the odds today. In RELEVANT Buzz, the crew recaps the Super Bowl — including the incredible story of Seahawks coach Mike McDonald, who followed God's calling to leave the corporate world to take an unpaid internship in coaching. And now 12 years later, it's led to a Super Bowl championship. We also dig into a new study revealing that Gen Z is statistically dumber than their parents (and why that's significant). Plus, Jesse forces the crew to watch the Carman movie trailer, and at the end of the show, we have Ask the Cast!
