"He's more human I am. He lived in this world, fell in love, had a job. In spite of all that power." - Bruce Wayne describing Clark Kent. The PCCD Pod is back with an attempted rehabilitation of a much-maligned movie, 2017's Justice League.  More importantly, we're also attempting to help you think through this movie in light of  God's glory. And, while he's no friend of the film, this episode features a special appearance from none other than the Calvinist Batman! What more motivation do you need?  Hit that download button, press play, and let's see if we can convince you to take another look at Justice League!

Ever find yourself thinking about the deeper questions a movie poses long after the credits roll, or caught in a conversation about the moral universe of your favorite TV series? That’s the space where The Pop Culture Coram Deo Podcast! lives. We don’t just review the latest releases; we sit with them, peeling back the layers of story, character, and visual language to see what they might reveal about truth, beauty, and the human condition. The phrase "coram Deo" means "before the face of God," and that’s the lens through which we examine everything from blockbuster franchises to hidden indie gems. Each episode is a thoughtful dialogue, a deep dive into the art we consume, asking how these narratives reflect, distort, or yearn for a greater story. You’ll hear us grapple with the themes and craftsmanship of television and film, not with easy answers, but with curiosity and a desire to understand. This podcast is for anyone who loves pop culture but also feels that itch to look beyond the surface, to find meaning in the midst of entertainment. Join us for conversations that are as engaging and substantive as the art they discuss.
