Today on the show, I share my review of "Angel and the Badman," which was released by Angel Studios on October 9, 2026.

This powerful redemption story features an impressive cast, including Zachary Levi, Neal McDonough, Tommy Lee Jones, and Meg Fraser.

It is a remake of the 1947 film of the same name starring John Wayne. The film combines a sense of adventure with a clear message about the redemptive power of Jesus Christ.

After Listening Here, I encourage you to take your friends and family to see it in theaters. If it's no longer playing, consider streaming it. Supporting quality films like this is important, as it shows filmmakers that their efforts are appreciated.

Speaking4Him Podcast #730: The Chosen: Season 4: Episode 6: Dedication

“It’s not wrong to question, but it does become wrong when we don’t accept the answer.” 

-Simon Peter, The Chosen

Today on the show, I share my personal review of The Chosen Season 4, Episode 6—an episode that blends celebration, confrontation, and foreshadowing in powerful ways. I talk about Jesus and the disciples observing Hanukkah, the Feast of Dedication, and I discuss Jesus’ bold declaration to the Pharisees in the temple: “I and the Father are one.” I also reflect on Judas’s growing frustration as he pushes for an earthly kingdom while Jesus continues pointing to a heavenly one, a tension that clearly hints at the betrayal still to come.

I also look at the emotional turn the episode takes when Jesus and the disciples receive the heartbreaking news that Lazarus has died. 

We also discuss an important subplot that contains one of my favorite moments in this episode- a conversation between Thomas and Peter about loss and how God’s perspective is so much higher than ours. Their exchange adds depth to an already weighty episode and reminds us that even in grief, God is working out His perfect plan.

Speaking4Him Podcast #729: Daniel & The Fiery Furnace (2026)

  "I think [the movie] will really resonate with [young people], and we’ve got to do our job to get the young people out there, because at the end of the day, this film is about young people staying steadfast in their faith, I think it’s important for the younger generations to see this, especially nowadays, when temptation and distractions are all around us.”

The actor added, “For a movie like this to exist, that really follows the journey of young people staying true to who they are, staying true to where they come from, I think that’s incredibly important.”

Mena Massoud

• Daniel.Movie

In this episode, I review the brand‑new film Daniel and the Fiery Furnace starring Mena Massoud, and Elijah Alexander!

It releases in theaters on September 18th. This powerful movie brings to life the biblical account of Daniel and his friends—men who stood firm in faith when the world demanded compromise. Their courage, conviction, and trust in God are portrayed with vivid storytelling that honors the book of Daniel while inviting viewers to reflect on their own walk with the Lord.

Listen Here to my full review, then make plans to see this inspiring film on the big screen. It’s a story meant to be experienced in community, so bring your friends and share the message of bold faith and unwavering hope. This is one movie you won’t want to miss.

Speaking4Him Podcast #728: Women in The Church

“And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” 

Genesis 1:26-27

Today on the show, I discuss the Southern Baptist Convention's recent reaffirmation of the biblical principle that God calls women to be silent in the church. I will examine what the Bible truly says, emphasizing that our opinions don't matter.  God's Instruction to us does.

Additionally, I want to explore a question that I believe many overlook regarding this topic: Why did God instruct that women should be silent in the church? Join me as I delve into the significant answer to this important question.
