Faith and the Horror genre may seem to be opposites, but every week Reed and Nathan put them in dialogue together. Join us for conversations about the things that haunt us and the things that heal us, explorations at the intersection between faith and fear, where we examine what scares us, in order to find what saves us.
In this episode, Reed and Nathan kick off a series about the films of John Carpenter with a discussion about THE FOG and the complicated question of penance for the wrongs we did not directly commit.
