To “hear and obey” is how you build on the rock…
“In the parable of the houses built on sand and rock in Matthew 7, there's something l've never thought about before...
We're given no indication that the houses were different. As far as we know, the houses look the same.
Externally, these houses are quite possibly, identical.
In the short term, you can't tell the difference between the two houses - until the storm comes.
That's when the foundation is revealed.
And both houses get hit.
And while the world celebrates the beauty of the house
God knows the quality of the foundation.
This parable reminds us that the most important thing about us is often hidden from the view of others.
I sometimes wonder if part of the problem is that we tend to be more focused on building impressive houses rather than strong foundations.
Life in the house is exciting - it's the life of activities and accomplishments...
Life in the foundation is much more subtle. It's the life of prayer, silence, confession, rest, and discipline.
It's where the house is truly guarded.
Knowing the Way of Jesus is not the same as living it.
At first, everything may look good on the sandy foundation.
The house may be architecturally impressive, may have the best location, might have a well-manicured garden, might even live next to the best neighbors.
But, in my experience, storms have a way of revealing what our lives are really built on.
And Jesus is asking us if the house of our lives is really built on the rock.
Something I'm wrestling with today is:
"What is exposed in my heart when storms come?"
Make no mistake, the rain, wind, and floods will come.
Hard times will come our way.
We will encounter great, unexpected difficulties in our lives.
But when rain, wind, and floods hit the house that is built on the rock foundation, that house will stand.
The Way of Jesus doesn't lead you out of hardship but through it.”

13. Film - The Whale
Year - 2022 Director - Darren Aronofsky Cast - Brendan Fraser, Sadie Sink, Hong Chau, Ty Simpkins Cinematographer - Matthew Libatique Rating - 8/10 For fans of - The Wrestler, Requiem For A Dream
What it is.
The film depicts the last days of a reclusive and morbidly obese, gay man named Charlie (Brendan Fraser) as he tries to make amends with his teenage daughter who he left when she was eight. Filmed entirely in his apartment, we see Charlie’s friends, family, pizza guy and door knocking Christian, come and go as they grapple with a life ending that they cannot save.
What rates it.
Brendan Fraser’s performance makes this film. He plays Charlie earnestly in such a way that you forget that it’s Fraser under the suit. The emotion in his eyes throughout the entire film shows a lost soul trying to regain a sense of his life - much like Fraser and his return to the industry that downplayed his sexual assault. If you’ve watched an Aronofsky film or two before, you know what to expect; characters in search of redemption, so much so that they let it destroy them. Libatique’s cinematography has us again play the role of a passive audience. All we can do is watch as Charlie destroys himself in an attempt to become some sort of martyr. In the end we are left wondering if what he did was right, fair, or all a closeted gay man can do in rural America.

THE EXORCISM starring RUSSELL CROWE; sets theatrical release for JUNE 7, 2024.
Vertical has acquired North American rights to the horror film The Exorcism (aka The Georgetown Project) starring Academy Award®-Winner Russell Crowe (Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind).
Tumblr media
From Miramax, producer Kevin Williamson and Outerbanks Entertainment, the film is directed by Joshua John Miller and written by Miller and M.A. Fortin, the creators of the hit series Queen of The South and the writers and producers of The Final Girls. In addition to Crowe, the film stars Ryan Simpkins (Fear Street Trilogy), Sam Worthington (Avatar: The Way of Water), Chloe Bailey (Praise This), Adam Goldberg (The Equalizer) and David Hyde Pierce (Frasier).
The film will have an exclusive theatrical release beginning on June 7, 2024. Shudder, AMC Networks’ premiere streaming service for horror, thriller and the supernatural, has acquired pay 1 rights to the film. The Exorcism follows Anthony Miller (Crowe), a troubled actor who begins to unravel while shooting a supernatural horror film. His estranged daughter (Simpkins) wonders if he's slipping back into his past addictions or if there's something more sinister at play.
The Exorcism marks the sophomore outing as director for Joshua John Miller after an extensive career acting, producing, and writing. He began his career as one of the leads in Kathryn Bigelow’s vampire classic Near Dark. Miller brings decades of knowledge of horror films to the table, as well as familial connections in his father, Jason Miller, who portrayed Father Damien Karras in The Exorcist (1973), and his mother, Susan Bernard, who was a Scream Queen.
Filmmakers Miller and Fortin said, “Vertical has been a great partner in helping us complete and realize our vision for this story. Their level of enthusiasm and support are rare to find.”
Vertical Partner Peter Jarowey said, “Joshua has a profound expertise in this genre, and we applaud his creation of a film that reverently nods to classic horror while adding a fresh twist. We want to thank everyone at Miramax for their partnership and are looking forward to bringing the film to theatres nationwide this summer.”
The Exorcism is produced by Miramax, Kevin Williamson, Ben Fast, and Bill Block. Padraic McKinley, Scott Putman, Andrew Golov, and Thom Zadra serve as executive producers. Below-the-line talent includes director of photography Simon Duggan; production designer Michael T. Perry; editor Matthew Woolley; music by Daniel Bensi and Saunder Jurriaans; costume designer Jodi Leesley; and casting directors Mary Vernieu, C.S.A and Lindsay Graham Ahanonu, C.S.A
Jarowey and Senior Vice President of Acquisitions Tony Piantedosi negotiated the deal on behalf of Vertical, with CAA Media Finance negotiating the deal on behalf of the filmmakers.

Yet another Righteous Gemstones precursor, with squabbling siblings, a gay son, and Matthew.
Tumblr media
Troy Anthony Hogan plays Matthew, a member of Jesse Gemstone's crew, last seen helping Jesse beat up Vance Simpkins, then advising BJ on his fight persona. He has 23 acting credits on IMDB, including Queen Sugar (2016-2022), an OWN (Oprah Winfrey Network) drama about three siblings squabbling over their late father's Louisiana sugar cane farm. He plays Cardale Stewart, one of the sugar cane farmers.
Tumblr media
Micah West (Nicholas Ashe), the teenage son of the second-oldest daughter, had a long, slow coming-out plot arc, culminating with kissing his boyfriend in Season 6. So, you can't get cast on The Righteous Gemstones unless you have experience in a program with a gay son coming out?
Troy doesn't appear to have Instagram, and his Facebook page consists mostly of Biblical quotations (interestingly,with John 3:16 at the top, misidentified as 1 John 3:16, citing the epistle, not the Gospel). Also he's from Houston, married, and represented by Boutique Talent.

Finding  Emo - Film Review: The Whale ★★★1/2
Tumblr media
How many times have you thought to yourself, “Great performance but the movie was just okay”?  Even Oscars handed to Renee Zellweger in Judy, Jim Broadbent in Iris or Jessica Lange in Blue Sky couldn’t make the films themselves stand the test of time. I’m afraid the same historical distinction may befall Brendan Fraser in The Whale, the newest film from Darren Aronofsky, and while perfectly fine, never transcends the magnificent performance at its center.  
Adapted by Samuel D. Hunter from his own play, the story centers around Charlie (Fraser), a morbidly obese gay man who appears to welcome his own imminent death. Unwilling to seek medical care, Charlie remains mostly confined to his couch as he gorges on food and ignores the words of his friend Liz (Hong Chau), a nurse, that he is experiencing congestive heart failure and will soon die if he takes no action. Why and how Charlie came to this state of being unfolds throughout, and despite melodramatic moments and often repetitive scenes, the movie works because Fraser almost rips your guts out with this ferociously passionate yet gentle giant.
When we first meet Charlie, he’s masturbating to gay porn in his small Midwestern apartment. A random visitor named Thomas (Ty Simpkins), a missionary out to save mankind one awkward  door knock at a time, enters at this vulnerable moment. Throughout, several people will come and go, such as the aforementioned Liz, who also happens to be the sister to Charlie’s late partner. We also hear from his ex-wife Mary (Samantha Morton) and most notably his daughter Ellie (Sadie Sink), an aggressively angry teen who resents that her father abandoned her while still a child. Needless to say, this film betrays its stage origins with perhaps more doors opening and being slammed shut than found in Noises Off.
Clearly a film made during COVID with its limited sets and cast, Aronofsky, collaborating with his long-time cinematographer Matthew Libatique, masterfully films what could easily have been a claustrophobic and dull story. At times, however, Charlie gets the horror movie treatment as the music and his actions can feel monstrous. Witnessing Charlie attempt to stand or watching him slather Ranch dressing all over his pizza and inhale it feels shot through with a sense of terror. Think of how Aronofsky handled Ellen Burstyn’s character in Requiem For A Dream and you’ll the point, although he doesn’t resort to fish eye lenses or rapid cutting to make his point.
Charlie knows how the world perceives him and his deep depression has brought him to simply let go of his life. He won’t allow his students to see his face, pretending his camera doesn’t work on Zoom calls, and same goes for his contactless exchanges with a man who frequently delivers him pizzas. Charlie feels worthless and seems to want to spare the world of his presence. Over the course of a week, we watch him spar with Liz over his healthcare, providing the film with some of its richest, layered moments. Chau, who never gives the same performance twice, offers a brittle, intense yet immensely moving portrayal as a friend who enables Charlie yet feels so helpless as she watches him fall apart.
His daughter, however, seemingly wants nothing to do with him, but still manages to burst into the room whenever she has a beef with him. They work out a deal which keeps her coming back, and despite Sink really delivering sparks, the character’s bottomless pit of anger sometimes feels a little one note and just a little too much. Still, it all seemed worth it for a climactic reaction which connected, however briefly. Morton, who arrives late in the film, also ramped up the intensity just when it felt like we had been covering the same ground one too many times. This felt especially true of Simpkins’ scenes. Why this character could gain access to a stranger’s life so easily, especially when he preaches gospel to a man who clearly doesn’t want to hear it, seemed like a cheap way to insert the concept of religion into the film. It doesn’t entirely work, yet Charlie’s grace, even when calling Thomas out, felt beautifully heroic. It felt, however, like one plot strand too many.
I also took issue with how certain characters reacted to Charlie’s size. The film pulls no punches when it comes to showing his body, clearly augmented by a fat suit and some CGI, but I didn’t buy some of the pearl-clutching gasps and sly iPhone photography we see from people who should know how to control themselves just a little bit better.
Still, despite a pile-on of so many soapy elements and missteps, Fraser, who has spent much of his career in fluffier projects, transcends it all as if his life depended on it. Charlie has such soulful, kind qualities and we see them in Fraser’s eyes, in a casual playfulness which peeks through in his scenes with Chau, and in those explosive moments when he struggles to find meaning in his life. Fraser turned me into a totally sobbing mess with his fantastic work. The film may stumble here and there, but you won’t want to miss The Whale for Fraser’s unforgettable performance.
