Hollywood Heroes: How Your Favorite Movies Reveal God - https://amzn.to/3yo0OXb

Frank Turek is an award-winning author or coauthor of several books, including "I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist" and his latest, "Hollywood Heroes". He hosts a weekly TV program  broadcast to 32 million homes and an apologetics podcast on over 180 stations. As founder and president of CrossExamined.org, Frank speaks over 100 times  per year, often to youth and college students. He has debated several prominent atheists, including Christopher Hitchens and Michael Shermer.

Seven fictional stories — Captain America, Iron Man, Harry Potter, Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings, Batman, and Wonder Woman — point us to the Ultimate Hero, Jesus Christ.

Think about it. What if Batman knew your name and wanted to be friends with you? What if you were the one Tony Stark died to save? What if it was you Luke Skywalker would stop at nothing to redeem? Hollywood Heroes will awaken you to these questions and help you see the God who stops at nothing to redeem you. And it will strengthen you to invite others into conversations of faith and life in Jesus.

Fictional stories about heroes help us realize that there is evil to fight, there are souls to be won, and there is growth to be achieved. These heroes help us recognize that regardless of religious or cultural beliefs, sacrificing your life for another is a powerful and beautiful display of love.

Fictional heroes help us to reconsider what is tangibly in front of us through the lens of story rather than just living through another day in our ordinary lives. Appealing  straight to the heart, the stories bypass artificial barriers that would normally block them because our worldview has been threatened. 

When we examine out-of-this-world qualities like idealism, genius, a willingness to sacrifice, discipline,  loyalty, humility, courage, wisdom, focus, power, and love, we discover that Jesus practices them perfectly.
