Iron and Myth 19: Christian Horror as a Storytelling Genre by God

With the buzz around the recent horror film Nefarious, which presents a more theologically accurate picture of demonic possession than pretty much anything else from Hollywood, we address the question: Can Christians use horror as an apologetic?

Joining us for our monthly Iron and Myth round table are award-winning screenwriter and best-selling author Brian Godawa (Godawa.com), Pastor Doug Van Dorn (DouglasVanDorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Director of the Institute of Biblical Anthropology Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview With the Giant: Ethnohistorical Notes on the Nephilim.

Podcast: The Best Summary I’ve Ever Done on the Nephilim and Watchers Paradigm in Scripture

 


I was on the Flyover Conservatives podcast with David Whited.

I am telling you, this is THE best summary, complete with Scriptures, that I have ever done on the Nephilim and the Watchers.

I traced the War of the Seed from Genesis 3 to Jesus, and talked about Giants in the Bible. They’re not just an anomaly. They are a theological message.

I talked about the Divine Council, the Deuteronomy 32 worldview, The Watcher paradigm as it is also traced through all of Scripture.

And how these two theological threads weave a tapestry through the Bible.

Very thorough. Very lively.

You’re gonna love it.

Political Satire Movie My Son Hunter Now FREE Online – Hunter’s Laptop from Hell

I wrote the script for the political satire, My Son Hunter all about his infamous “Laptop from Hell.”

Last year, it had a big splash release online.

Hollywood refused to distribute it.

The dominant Leftist Media hated it.

The Deep State censored it.

But everything we dealt with in the movie has now come to light because of further congressional investigations.

We were right.

And we are funny.

The storytelling is brilliant. 🙂 🙂

Laurence Fox as Hunter Biden is hilarious.

John James as Joe Biden is genius.

If you haven’t had the chance to watch it, you can do so now FOR FREE!

Just go to this online site hosted by the producers.

Iron and Myth Podcast: The Origin of Demons

DEMONS ARE the spirits of the giants destroyed in the Flood of Noah.

At least, that’s what Jews of the Second Temple period and the early Christian church believed.

Author and pastor Doug Van Dorn, bestselling author and award-winning screenwriter Brian Godawa, and Director of the Institute of Biblical Anthropology Dr. Judd Burton join Derek Gilbert’s podcast for our monthly Iron and Myth round table to discuss the origin of evil spirits. We dig into what the Bible says about these spirits, extrabiblical texts, and startling evidence that the demigod heroes of Greece like Herakles and Perseus were the Rephaim of the Amorites, Canaanites, and Hebrews.

Podcast: The Gospel Creates Order Out of Chaos. A Positive Vision of Christian Faith in Culture

I was on this podcast, Shekinah Publishing.

It was a great time. In Part One I gave my personal testimony of my faith in Hollywood and writing novels with an eye toward subverting the culture with positive Christian faith.

Here is Part One

In part two, I talk about having a positive Christian vision for culture rather than the defeatist approach.

So many Christians are overcome by the vast evil in this world, and it is really there.

But how do you live the Bible truth that “Greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world”?

Here is Part Two

Check them out. These are real heartfelt discussions.

Podcast: God the Son and the Sons of God – Jesus and the Divine Council

I was on The Mad Ones Podcast with Cam Harliss.

And it works into the incarnation of Jesus the Christ and the sonship of Christians.

You gotta listen to this one. it will become a classic.
