Reel Faith
What does it look like to truly love your enemies—not just in theory, but in practice? In this powerful message, Pastor David Gaunt uses the film Remember the Titans to help us confront one of Jesus’ most difficult commands:
👉 “Love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you.” — Luke 6:27
As racial tensions erupt on and off the field in 1971 Virginia, this true story becomes a compelling parable for what it means to overcome evil with good.
Through powerful scenes and Scripture from Romans 12, Pastor David outlines 9 practical steps for living out enemy-love in a world filled with conflict, pride, and pain.
📖 You’ll learn:
- Why humility, not hatred, changes hearts
- How compassion can spark repentance
- What it means to preserve peace at personal cost
- How the Gospel gives us power to respond, not retaliate
This is more than a movie message—it’s a challenge to live like Jesus in the face of real division and real pain. Let’s follow His lead.
