This summer, we explore themes from popular films alongside Scripture, uncovering how God's truth speaks through the stories we love. From adventure and sacrifice to redemption and hope, each week reminds us that God is present in every part of our story—inviting us into something greater.

Everyone remembers the iconic scene from the movie Rocky in which Rocky Balboa bounds up the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and looks over the city and raises his voice in victory - a victory he has yet to experience in reality, but one he is now prepared to encounter. This week, Rev. Jerry Andrews, Pastor Emeritus at First Presbyterian Church of San Diego compares and contrasts the difference between trying versus training, and examines how Paul distinguishes between the two when it comes to our lives of faith.

The Wizard of Oz is a beloved classic that seems to be in the childhood memory in all of us. It utters one of the most famous and enduring lines in cinema history, and that is the line, "There's no place like home." Dorothy repeats this line over and over and comes to apprerciate her place and time in life. For us as Christians, we understand the sentiment of this line in our spiritual lives. We have a deep desire to experience home. We also know that our ultimate home isn't a place, it's a Person.

It is the movie that brought people back to the theaters after the Pandemic: Top Gun Maverick is the movie we discuss this week. Pastor Karla implores us that our battle is not against each other, but against evil itself. Paul calls us to put on the full armor of God, but in Christ, we already have the armor on. It's just a matter of us realizing it, and understanding its usefulness for our lives. True victory involves more than just our skill, it involves obedience to God's call and the right equipment.
