About this listen

Join us in conversation with Jonathan Norgate as we listen to Crosslands Seminary students reflect on a Nigerian documentary about polystic ovary syndrome, an Urdu story about a pimp and prostitute, and a Canadian movie about the traumatic impact of the Lebanese civil war. Why are these stories so compelling? How do they help us enter a culture? And what value is this for Christian ministry?


Here are the three titles the students explored:


  • Where the heck is my period? Dir. Michael Akinrogunde (2024)
  • “Khushiya” in Bombay Stories, Sa’adat Hasan Manto (Vintage Classics, 2014)
  • Incendies, Dir. Denis Villeneuve (2010)
