Are “Intellectual Properties” Ruining Movies?

Last updated on: May 13, 2023 at 1:38 pm   By Bob Robinson

0 Comments

In an excellent article at Paste,  Jacob Oller explains how the management of “intellectual properties” has completely changed the film industry. Pretty consistently, folks go to the movies when they recognize something and stay home when they don’t. Looking at the past 10 years of box office Top 10s, it’s far faster to note which movies aren’t based on a pre-existing property: Frozen, Gravity, Inside Out, Zootopia, The Secret Life of Pets, Sing, Onward and Tenet. That’s it. Eight movies... Read more

Do You Believe in Being Platonic?

Last updated on: April 19, 2023 at 11:15 am   By Bob Robinson

0 Comments

The Greek philosopher Plato can be blamed for a lot of our misperceptions about the Christian life. From very early on, Christians couldn’t take the teachings of Jesus, Paul, the other apostles, or even the Hebrew Torah, poets, and prophets at face value. They had to add the pagan teachings of Plato on top of it all. Brian Walsh and J. Richard Middleton write, “Foundational to all Platonic thought is its dualism, the distinction between unchanging ideals (‘forms’) and the... Read more

I can’t tell you how often I’ve heard people tell me that if they were to be truly obedient to God’s mission, they’d have to pack up and move to some far-away place and serve to spread the gospel there. But even the great missiologist Lesslie Newbigin would differ with that notion. This is what he said: “God’s saving power known and experienced in the life of a redeemed community has to issue in all kinds of witness and service to... Read more

Is Our Gospel Too Small?

Last updated on: March 24, 2023 at 3:08 pm   By Bob Robinson

The truncated gospel versus the holistic gospel, Part 1. Many pastors, including myself, were trained in seminary that we had to “preach the gospel.” What was it we were to preach? That Jesus Christ died on the cross to save you from sin and give you the hope of heaven. We were taught that this is the simple gospel, the “good news” for each individual. No matter whatever else we preached, we had to boil it all back down to... Read more
