S07 E07 – 40: The Temptation of Christ and the Powerful Necessity of Suffering

On this episode of the Reel World Theology Podcast:

This episode ballooned from a written article into a full-fledged podcast episode. Friend of Reel World Theology, Reed Lackey, wrote the movie 40: The Temptation of Christ and it debuted this past April. Since Fizz isn’t driving this plane, we need two staffers, David Atwell and Josh Crabb, to occupy the co-pilot chairs. We discuss Reed’s movie and its international take on Christ as he is tempted in the desert. This movie takes a fascinating angle to Christ’s encounter with Satan in the wilderness and centers around the morality of suffering. We think you will like the movie and you will like David and Josh’s discussion.
