Host Michael Foust welcomes back actor Neal McDonough, known for his powerful roles in Band of Brothers, Minority Report, and countless faith-forward films. This time, he’s here to talk about his latest project: Guns and Moses, a unique action-drama inspired by real-life anti-Semitic violence.

McDonough plays Mayor Donovan Kirk, a character shaken by an attack on his town's Jewish community, and whose powerful line in the trailer — “His people are my people” — echoes the film’s deep message of unity, conviction, and standing up for what’s right.

🎧 Key Takeaways


Why Neal joined Guns and Moses and what makes it different from other films


A breakdown of his character, the mayor, and how the role challenged him


His thoughts on storytelling that inspires reflection, compassion, and faith


The deeper message behind “His people are my people”


Why he's drawn to films that challenge us to become better people


His views on the current "golden age" of faith-driven cinema


A sneak peek at what’s next — including his upcoming western The Wicked and the Righteous

🎬 About the Film

Guns and Moses tells the story of a quiet rabbi turned unlikely gunfighter after his community is rocked by violence. Inspired by true events, this action-packed drama is rooted in themes of identity, faith, courage, and the cost of inaction in the face of evil.

📍 A bold film that poses the question: What do you do when peace is shattered — and you're called to act?

🎥 Directed by: Sal Velez Jr.
🎭 Starring: Mark Feuerstein, Neal McDonough
