The Spiritual Practice of Watching MoviesWhat's your favorite Christmas movie? Easter movie? Pentecost movie? Casual viewers and movie buffs alike have favorite movies to watch at certain times of the year. But for film critic Abby Olcese, movies with spiritual themes aren't just limited to the holiday season. They're part of a deep human need to connect our favorite stories to the natural rhythms of our lives, and to let them shape and give meaning to our experience of the seasons all year long.The life of the church is also defined by stories, which we revisit through the pattern of the Christian year. In Films for All Seasons, Olcese invites us to reflect on the great themes of the church calendar through the lens of film. From superhero movies and Star Wars to classics and arthouse films, she chooses movies for each liturgical season and leads us through them with skill and infectious enthusiasm, exploring how each one can inform and deepen our appreciation of its corresponding season.Films for All Seasons is more than just a book about movies—it's a model for how we engage with art as Christians.Includes:- Explorations of popular, classic, and arthouse films and how they relate to liturgical seasons- Reflections on the great themes of the church calendar- Discussion questions after each movie designed to facilitate discussion with small groups and friends
