Emma Woodhouse may be charming and clever, but her need to orchestrate other people's lives reveals a problem many of us share: we trust our plans more than God's.Why do we struggle to see our own faults clearly?

And when—if ever—is it okay to play matchmaker?Pride, Repentance & Self-Awareness – Why growth begins with seeing ourselves clearlyMentoring Without Controlling – The difference between guiding someone and playing GodPlaying Matchmaker – The illusion of control and the freedom of trusting God's planWe close with a fun question: Have you ever set someone up on a date—and how did it go?Tune in for practical theology, relatable laughs, and an honest look at what Austen's classic has to teach us about spiritual growth and letting go.

In this episode of Practically Christian, we dive into Scott Pilgrim vs. the World to explore how identity, self-respect, and spiritual growth shape our relationships and faith. Scott's journey isn't just about winning Ramona—it's about transformation. We unpack his false self-perception, the difference between self-respect and works-based validation, and why his ultimate victory comes not from the "Power of Love" but from the "Sword of Self-Respect."Along the way, we reflect on the gospel's contrast between striving for love and receiving grace (Ephesians 2:8-10), discuss the dangers of unhealthy relationship patterns, and ask what Christians can learn from Scott's battle with himself—his own worst enemy.Join us as we break down how true transformation happens through grace, self-awareness, and learning to love others as redeemed, not perfect, people.

Join us for our deep dive into the theological topics that are raised by the movie Tenet. In this episode we'll dive into topics such as: Does God know the future before it happens?

Join us as we discuss one of Luke's favorite films: Tenet.

For many years, people have been fascinated by the crossroads of the movie industry and faith.At first blush, it might seem hard to get your head around the juxtaposition of these two worlds.  For a person of faith, the mere mention of Hollywood can conjure up thoughts of politicized themes, immoral situations, and sinful behavior.  To a point, this may be true, but it can also be seen as one of the most fertile mission fields out there.Faith-based movies can certainly make a positive difference to the masses but more importantly Christian actors, directors, and production people can have a life-changing influence on those whom they work with.My guest today, Kris Polaha, is a Christian actor regularly working in Hollywood and has an upcoming role in the summer blockbuster, “Jurassic World: Dominion”. He sees the movie industry as a place for him to live out his faith in such a way that is welcoming to his peers. In other words, rather than beating people up with the Bible, he instead conducts business in such a manner that those around him will often say, “There's something different about that guy. I want that in my life. I need whatever it is that he has.”Well, that something is faith in Jesus Christ.Kris joins us on the Crossmap Podcast to share the role that faith plays in how he approaches the craft of acting. Listen as he talks about what he looks for in a movie project and whether there is any particular process he goes through when considering an acting role. He might even throw in a quip or two about a velociraptor or a T-Rex!Where Hope Grows on Pure FlixClick here to learn more about the movie.Links to Kris Polaha Kris Polaha on IMDb Kris Polaha's Website Kris Polaha on Facebook Kris Polaha on Instagram Kris Polaha on Twitter Links to Crossmap Crossmap Website Crossmap Facebook
