The Big Picture is back

The wait is over. The Big Picture team has returned for 2016, primed to bring us more entertaining and thought-provoking insights into pop culture (as they did in 2015!).

Every week via The Big Picture videos and podcast, respected film reviewer Ben McEachen and scriptwriter/documentarian Mark Hadley help us to consider what we watch — from a Christian perspective. Because no matter what we’re doing in life, God is with us and wants us to live for him. Even in our leisure time.

For their first show of the year, Ben and Mark dive into another teen apocalypse blockbuster (The Fifth Wave), child sex-abuse investigation (Spotlight) and Quentin Tarantino’s latest cinematic challenge (The Hateful Eight). Press play below or click here for the full podcast, which also features the “Top 5 Movies That Make Ben Smile”.
