Watching Movies with My Pastor

This month on Watching Movies with My Pastor, we take a Thanksgiving road trip with Steve Martin and John Candy in John Hughes’ heartfelt classic Planes, Trains and Automobiles.

From malfunctioning airplanes to burned-out cars and frozen motel rooms, Neal and Del’s misadventures deliver some of the funniest moments of the 80s — but they also carry powerful lessons on patience, friendship, compassion, and gratitude.

Join us as we explore:

✈️ The film’s production and behind-the-scenes stories

🚗 John Candy’s emotional performance and improvisation

🚆 Why this movie became a Thanksgiving tradition

🎬 How John Hughes used comedy to tell a deeply human story

✝️ Biblical themes of humility, empathy, perseverance, and giving thanks

Pull up a seat, grab some pumpkin pie, and let’s break down this holiday classic together!

It's the movie that made the whole world afraid to go back in the water. This week, Jeremy and Pastor Phillip dive into Steven Spielberg’s Jaws—the original summer blockbuster that redefined suspense, storytelling, and sharks!

We explore behind-the-scenes stories, the troubled production, iconic performances, and the groundbreaking score by John Williams. Plus, we take a deeper look at the Biblical themes of courage, sacrifice, and unseen evil lurking beneath the surface.

Whether you’ve seen it a dozen times or you're just dipping your toes in for the first time, Jaws still has bite.

🦈 Spoiler alert: We’re gonna need a bigger Bible study.
