Acclaimed writer and filmmaker Kevin Miller (Hellbound, JESUSA) joins Derrick to wrestle with the relationship of violence to Christian nationalism, scapegoating, and the afterlife. Is there ever a good reason to use violence? Does the Bible teach us to use violence when necessary? Is God violent towards his enemies? Will God eventually save everyone? Buckle up for this one!

Kevin Miller has worked on over a dozen films, including documentaries, feature films, and short film projects (he's Kevin Miller XI on imdb.com) and over a hundred books, both fiction and non-fiction, many of which he worked on as an editor. His best-selling debut novel Up the Creek has sold over 10,000 copies and has topped Amazon.com's Canadian literature chart for over 9 weeks. Kevin's career has taken him all over the planet, from the secret underground world beneath Moscow to the Brazilian rainforest. He's snorkeled with sharks in the Galapagos, interviewed war criminals in a fly-infested market in Sierra Leone, traveled across Europe with Ben Stein, shaken hands with Chuck Norris (he's still smarting from that encounter), and done chin-ups in Kirk Cameron's bedroom. Along the way, he even got to play one of the most iconic comic book villains of all time, Lex Luthor, in an episode of the TV series Smallville. ​In addition to his work in film and publishing, Kevin has taught extensively, conducting writing classes and workshops in schools, colleges, and at conferences across Canada and the US as well as in the UK and Australia.
