Unashamed with the Robertson Family

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke dig into The Odyssey, comparing Christopher Nolan’s interpretation with Homer’s original, from the diminished role of the Greek gods to Penelope’s complicated fight to preserve her family and kingdom. They explore Telemachus’ struggle to grow up without his father and the stark contrast between men who build and protect and those who simply live off what others have built. The guys ultimately contrast Odysseus’ long journey home with Christianity’s radically different picture of God bringing his people home.

In this episode: Judges; 1 Samuel; Job; Daniel 2; Daniel 7; John 9; Hebrews 13:2; Hebrews 13:4; Ecclesiastes; Revelation 21-22

Today’s conversation is about Lesson 1 & 2 of The Odyssey taught by Hillsdale Professor Dr. Benedict Whalen. Take the course with us at no cost to you!

More about The Odyssey:

The Odyssey tells the tale of the cunning and crafty hero of the Trojan War on his journey home. After ten years of war, Odysseus faces another ten years of fantastic temptations, deadly monsters, treacherous seas, and impious men. Meanwhile, Ithaca is threatened by suitors who plague his wife and plunder his wealth. When Odysseus reaches home, he must slay the suitors, test the loyalty of his friends and family, and restore order to his marriage and his kingdom.

Join Dr. Benedict Whalen as he explores themes of love, marriage, kingship, duty, and piety. Encounter Homer's epic, which displays the full human experience. In a world of uncertainty, Odysseus charts a path towards peace through perseverance, prudence, and justice.

Join Odysseus on his fantastic journey home from Troy in Homer’s unrivaled story.

Jase, Al, and Zach challenge the way we think about success, judgment, and having life all figured out. The guys push back on the “don’t judge me” culture, drawing a line between hypocritical judgment, healthy accountability, and calling out what’s wrong without playing God. Jase points to James’ sobering reminder that life moves fast and that money, plans, and worldly success can create a dangerous illusion of control. Plus, Zach learns that Unashamed Nation has definitely chosen sides in his ongoing rivalry with Jase.
