“DEAR GEORGE, REMEMBER NO MAN IS A FAILURE WHO HAS FRIENDS.“On this episode, we revisit a Christmas Classic, It's a Wonderful Life, directed by Frank Capra, and starring James Stewart. Released in the winter of 1946, this holiday classic has been adored by critics and audiences for decades, almost becoming an essential viewing during the holidays. Strangely, however, when the film was released, it was a box office bomb, while also receiving middling reviews from critics. And what was thought to be a film that would disappear to the bottom of the bargain bin would eventually become an American classic that many consider to be one of the greatest films of all time. How does a film that have one of the biggest actors of the time, with a big name director helming the project, be a flop at release, and yet come back adored more than any other film released that same year? That's what we go into in this week's episode. We talk about the reception from critics, and why audiences may not have been too keen to see a film about a struggling business owner. We first dive into the story, the general premise about George Bailey at the brink of suicide, and how an angel in sent to save him and show him just how bad the city of Bedford Falls would be without it. We talk about the overall morals of the film, and how whether laced with good intentions, how some of those ideals don't hold up in the modern world. Speaking of things that don't hold up, we cover some of the filmmaking practices from the film that haven't aged well, including the assault of a child actor causing his ear to bleed, and the only person of color being casted as a maid.We also go into one of the most despicable characters ever put to film, Mr. Potter, the power-hungry businessman set on controlling Bedford Falls and stripping George Bailey of his business and ensuring the people of the town always stay poor. Despicable to most viewers, but seen as sympathetic through the FBI at the time, so much so that they considered his character wrongly represented in the film, and who were convinced that the film may have had a communist agenda. It is as dumb as it sounds, but we go over this as well as many more things from this American classic, which is celebrating it's 75th anniversary this year. So sit back, relax, grab your drink of choice, and enjoy this week's episode into It's a Wonderful Life.Music is from Triune Digital and audio clips pulled from movies we will be reviewing in other episodes.Artwork by @jannelle_o

Sofia Kourtesis - "Dear George," a 2020 self-released single. Today's Song of the Day was chosen in honor of It's Still Going on Day, recognizing the one year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd, playing songs of hope, justice, and change, songs that affirm Black humanity, classic songs of protest as well as those that came out in the wake of the murder of George Floyd, amid the protests of last summer.  One of the songs that came out of this grief was this single from Peruvian-born, Berlin-based producer Sofia Kourtesis. As she writes on her Bandcamp page, in a letter to Floyd's family, "From deep in my heart, I can't imagine the grief you are feeling. I tried my best to express my feelings by writing you this song. Today, l keep you in my heart through melody. I will keep protesting, I will keep talking about you. All profits from this release will be donated to 70+ bail funds aiding the Black Lives Matter protests."

A letter to George, a baby baptized today in our worship. Isaiah 43:1-7

Did you know that George Washington was passionately in love with one of the richest women in America in the 1700s. Could this love affair have created the American Revolution? What was george Washington really like? Co-anchor of CBS2 This Morning and CBS2 At Noon, Mary Calvi, in her debut novel“Dear George, Dear Mary" tells all. 

Mary Calvi talks about her new book, "Dear George, Dear Mary," about George Washington.

Did a broken heart motivate George Washington to ditch the Brits and lead the American Revolution? It sure looks that way, journalist Mary Calvi tells Maurice, after she logged several years of ground-breaking research. Dear George, Dear Mary is Calvi’s debut novel, a fictionalized account of Washington’s deep love that he lost, before he ultimately won the War for Independence.

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=2+timothy+4%3A6-22&version=NRSVCE (2 Timothy 4:6-22) One of my all-time favorite movies comes on each year around the Christmas season. It is called, “It's a Wonderful Life,” with Jimmy Stewart. The movie is about a fellow named George Bailey who, when things are getting so bad, wishes he had never been born. An angel comes and shows him what life would have been like in this world without him. At the end of the movie, as George's friends are all rallying to save him from a financial crisis, Clarence, the angel, writes him a note. The note says, “Dear George, no man is a failure who has friends.” Clarence was right – to have a good friend is one of the highest delights of life. We tend to refer to people as friends rather loosely these days. If you ask someone if they have a lot of friends, they might say, O yeah. I have a lot of friends. I have a lot of friends on Facebook. We may talk about acquaintances as friends sometimes. We may have work friends and church friends. Guys refer to their friends as buddies. But do you have a 3 a.m. friend for when you're alone in a dark time? Perhaps a crisis has hit, life is closing in on you, and you feel like your world is falling apart. Do you have someone you could call to be with you during those times? At our church we call those 3 a.m. friends – those with whom we have deep soul friendships. Many people do not have that kind of person in their life, which is not surprising because there is so much loneliness in America today, especially among men. We have many barriers to developing true and lasting friendships. • Pace of life. Distractions like television, the Internet, and video games. • Mobility of life. People frequently move from job to job, from area to area. • Isolation of life. We typically drive to our jobs and then drive home, close the garage door, and sit by ourselves in front of the screen each night. • Cynicism of life. We distrust others and are reluctant to let our guards down. • Busyness of life. We are too busy to nurture relationships. It's hard to love someone when you are in a hurry. The sad thing is, we are missing out on a deep soul friendship and a richer life. Everyone needs a 3 a.m. friend. As a Christian, you might be thinking, I have the Lord God in my life. He's my friend! I am glad you do! Yet, sometimes we need God with skin on. I remember a story about a young girl who woke up in the middle of the night crying because of a bad dream so her mother went to comfort her. When her mother thought she was calmed down, she headed back to her own bedroom. But then the little girl cried out, “You're leaving me? Don't leave me!” Mother responded, “God is with you.” The little girl said, “Yes, but I need God with skin on right now.” It's true – sometimes we need God with skin on. We need a human touch in our lives. We have always needed God with skin on, when you think about it. From Adam in the Garden of Eden to whom God said, “It's not good for man to be alone,” to King David who surrounded himself with friends through the hard times and the good. Jesus himself valued friendship. He called the twelve disciples to travel with Him in His ministry. The Apostle Paul experienced the same sort of need in our passage for today. Paul's time of departure was coming soon. He was on death row in Rome without a get-out-of-jail-free card. He was far from the familiar, far from his homeland. Uncomfortable and chained to soldiers in prison, he was physically cold as well, for winter was coming and he needed his coat. He was also physically and spiritually hungry. Paul mentions he needs his books, which have been left behind in Troas (he wasn't finished learning from the Word of God). Mostly, Paul is feeling abandoned and alone. He had experienced the power of the Lord standing by him. He even mentions in our passage today how Jesus strengthened him as he stood trial...
