This week on the Men at the Movies podcast, we deep dive into The Fifth Element. Like Zorg, we frequently try to make deals with the Shadow, trying to maximize what we can get out of life. It’s when our plans backfire that we realize our need for a savior, and that’s when Jesus shows up. But it’s not to judge, criticize, or condemn us—rather it’s an invitation to love, adventure, and purpose. Grab your multipass, and let’s discover God’s truth in this movie.
