What Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender Gets Right About Guilt and Grace

What Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender Gets Right About Guilt and Grace31 jul14 min

<p>Avatar Aang: The Last Airbender just hit Paramount+, and it&#39;s not just a nostalgic reunion with Team Avatar all grown up. It&#39;s a story about two men both wrecked by guilt, one who buried it in bitterness, one who&#39;s been silently punishing himself for it for over a hundred years. Dallas breaks down the difference between conviction and condemnation, and why only one of them actually leads somewhere good.This also kicks off Season 11 of Geek Devotions. Ten years, every single Friday, and it&#39;s only possible because of this community.
