In this Titanosaur-sized episode, David A. Lee talks with paleontologist Dr. Marcus Ross about Jurassic World: Rebirth. Join us as we critique the science in this movie and rank the entire Jurassic franchise. We also discuss biblical stewardship and whether it's a sin to kill a dinosaur. It seems that this franchise, uh, finds a way.

Why do so many movies portray work in a negative light? Does the "work-life balance" exist? What does Scripture indicate about work, life, and purpose? Where do films hit and miss the mark? In this legacy episode of In The Lobby, David A. Lee and Richard Foltz chat with financial expert David Bahnsen about movies, the theology of work, and his book Full-Time: Work & The Meaning of Life. You're going to love this discussion!

Recorded in May 2024, this re-release features the full discussion available to the public. For more great content from our discussion "In The Lobby", become a Premium Seating Patron Saint on Patreon.
