Meet God at the Movies

Meet God at the Movies will discuss the movie Something the Lord Made for its exploration at 6:30pm Monday, February 21.

Something the Lord Made is a 2004 American made-for-television biographical drama film about the black cardiac pioneer Vivien Thomas (1910–1985) and his complex and volatile partnership with white surgeon Alfred Blalock (1899–1964)—the "Blue Baby doctor" who pioneered modern heart surgery.

The Saint Philip’s movie discussion group gathers for a general exploration of the film itself, then to plumb it for theological content in the area of creation (what is the world of the story like); what is broken/where is sin; is there a moment of turnaround, repentance; and where is redemption or the reign of God visible.

All are welcome to join the discussions, but registration is required. You may register here.

Where to stream the movie? Something the Lord Made is available for a nominal rental fee at several sites: Amazon Prime, HBO Max, Hulu, and iTunes.
