Hollywood Heroes: How Your Favorite Movies Reveal God

4.80 out of 5 stars

Description

Why do we find ourselves captivated by stories of heroes battling evil and making the ultimate sacrifice? The answer lies in our deep-seated desire for a world free from pain, suffering, and struggle. In reality, this longing finds its fulfillment in Jesus, the ultimate hero, who will one day set things right. In "Hollywood Heroes," authors Frank and Zach Turek delve into the world of movies, uncovering the parallels between our favorite big-screen heroes and the real-world battle between good and evil. Through the lens of seven iconic franchises - Captain America, Iron Man, Harry Potter, Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Batman, and Wonder Woman - they reveal inspiring biblical life lessons on justice, purpose, courage, strength, sacrifice, faith, and love. The journey begins with the true story of a selfless US Navy SEAL, and then explores Spider-Man's origin story to address the age-old question: "Why would a good God allow evil?" As you read, you'll discover how these modern-day parables echo timeless truths about God and his mission for humanity, drawing you closer to the ultimate hero - Jesus.
