What Would Jesus Watch – 9: The Passion Live

/ Alex Doriot / Leave a comment

Welcome to “What Would Jesus Watch?”, our podcast series overanalyzing the overlooked genre of Christian Cinema.

passion liveThis week Kate and Alex return for an emergency podcast covering the glorious ridiculousness of Tyler Perry, Trisha Yearwood and Chris Daughtry performing “The Passion Live!”

Yes Fox just broadcast a “live” modern musical retelling of the last days of Jesus’ life using the music of Train, Jason Mraz and Hoobastank so we had to cover it in painstaking detail. We name our favorite and least favorite performers and musical moments, talk about the uncomfortable acting and argue over whether or not Jesus would be a modern day “bro”. We also cover whether or not the true message of Easter was proclaimed and share some Prayer Requests for who we’d like to see in next year’s version of “The Passion Live”.

If you didn’t catch “The Passion Live” you’ll still be able to enjoy the podcast. But if you’d like to prepare you can watch the full musical on Fox.com or search On Demand and other streaming providers.

Follow along on Twitter and on Facebook to see what movie we’ll be watching next or to offer us your suggestions or comments!

/ Alex Doriot / Leave a comment

slide.001Welcome to Episode 8 of the POP GOD POPcast – an exploration into the lives of people seeking God in the present tense.

This week’s guest is Adam Allen. Adam is the youth pastor at True North Church in North Augusta. Adam’s walk of faith across the past 13 years has led him to taking charge of an incredible youth ministry. We talk about his path to today, why he never went to seminary, his love for YoungLife, and the importance of a strong supporting cast. Plus Adam takes the Pop Quiz, we get to the bottom of his unique Twitter handle, and spend a few minutes geeking out on Friends and Train. Enjoy this look inside the life of a youth pastor seeking God in the present tense.
