A Historian and a Theologian React to "The Passion of the Christ"
Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ is a controversial yet influential portrayal of Jesus’ crucifixion that held the title of highest-grossing R-rated film for 20 years. But how scripturally, historically, and theologically accurate is this depiction? In this session, John Hamer (historian) and Leandro Palacios (theologian) react to the film in real time—offering critical analysis, academic commentary, and the occasional snort and eye-roll when the script goes off the rails. There will be history, theology, and cringe.
