Kingdom Come

Humans desire an ideal kingdom, a longing that Scripture promises to fulfill both spiritually and physically. · Yvonne Anderson

Not So Sleepy After All

“Sleepy Hollow” left John W. Otte a little sleepy. And a little angry. Find out why in today’s post. · John Otte

Fantastic Television

“Legend of Korra” is back and “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” debuts tonight; will you watch? · E. Stephen Burnett

Attack Of The ‘Cast A Woman Doctor’ Critics

Why are media elites (but not most fans) upset that “Doctor Who” did not cast a woman as the Twelfth Doctor? · E. Stephen Burnett

More Thoughts About Science and Speculation

Depending on the version you read, the word “science” occurs twice in the Scriptures. In Daniel 1:4, the Babylonians sorted through the Jewish boys they’d taken captive, hoping to find some they could train in their own ways. They looked […] · Yvonne Anderson

Daniels Ex Machina

I should have known better. The last time I was on here (a month ago?!?!? It seems a lot shorter than that!), I did some complaining about the long-cancelled TV show Enterprise (because, hey, I’m up on the latest entertainment […] · John Otte

To Boldly Go…

Instead of boldly going where no man has gone before, Enterprise tepidly rehashed Star Trek cliches. Now I’m worried this could also happen with the upcoming feature film “Star Trek Into Darkness.” · John Otte

Doctor Who: From ‘The Bells …’ To ‘Hide’

“Who” viewers, what have you thought of series 7.5 so far? · E. Stephen Burnett

In The News: Mid-March 2013

“The Hobbit” on DVD, reviewing the “Left Behind” dramatic audio pilot, “Doctor Who” promos, St. Patrick, a low view of what Jesus can handle, and one theologian’s “Jack the Giant Slayer” criticisms. · E. Stephen Burnett

Fiction Christians From Another Planet! I: Invasion Of The Child-People

Why do some Christian novels keep presenting only equivalents of kid-Anakin or Wesley Crusher, instead of Han Solo or Captain Picard, and expect readers to like them? · E. Stephen Burnett

Incarnation, Part 1: Eternal Entity

Science fiction and false religions often insist that humans must change from physical to spiritual beings. But God the Son did the exact opposite. · E. Stephen Burnett

Christmas: The Gritty Reboot

First it was a simple, cozy, possibly golden-glowing A-frame stable, then a slightly dirtier cave-stable, and then worse overnight lodging for poor Mary and Joseph. Why do people keep gritty-rebooting the first Christmas? · E. Stephen Burnett

The De-volution Of Revolution

There’s a monster lurking inside all of us. · John Otte

So You Say You Want A Revolution?

We’re about a month into the new fall schedule on TV. My socks have not been blown off by “Revolution.” Then the characters meet Hollywood Christian Cliche #126, the fire-and-brimstone street preacher. · John Otte

‘Changing The Future; It’s Called Marriage,’ Part 2

In Doctor Who, some people hated Rory’s and Amy’s relationship. Maybe people dislike seeing a stable relationship. Maybe, similar to the Doctor himself, they can’t stand committed, heroic, happy endings to a love story. · E. Stephen Burnett

‘Changing The Future; It’s Called Marriage,’ Part 1

After Doctor Who’s midseason finale, you may owe the British sci-fi series’ writers an apology if you believe the program pushed other agendas besides love, sacrifice, and God-given marriage. · E. Stephen Burnett

‘Doctor Who’: When Justice Seasons ‘Mercy’

The “Doctor Who” episode “A Town Called Mercy” asked viewers to wrestle with the question: who decides who lives or dies? The answer is hidden in plain sight. · E. Stephen Burnett

Entering The ‘Asylum’

“Doctor Who” series 7 began with an explosive opener last Saturday, raising questions about great battles versus personal ones, and particularly what true kind of love the greatest stories celebrate. · E. Stephen Burnett
