VeggieTakes

Kendall and Kate are in a pickle. VeggieTales was an innovative and creative tool for sharing Bible stories and biblical values with children in the early 2000s. But was the anthropomorphic transfiguration of prophets into produce a bit too irreverent — was it actually a bit(e) of a problem? Re-watch the Evangelical classic through the eyes of food scholars, theologians, and modern day parents as Kendall Vanderslice, founder of the Edible Theology Project, joins writer Kate Watson to reflect on their ten favorite episodes of VeggieTales: the original form of "edible theology."

    Rack, Shack, and Benny with Phil Vischer

    This week, Kendall and Kate sit down with the one and only Phil Vischer—creator of the Veggie Tales universe. They open with the question on everyone's mind: why...vegetables? The answer might surprise you, and explains why we chose this particular interview to accompany the breakdown of Rack, Shack, and Benny. Phil shares insights into the technological nightmare that was the first few episodes, the shifts that paved the way towards success, and the things Phil would do over again if he could. Dr. Adam Perez breaks down the Dance of the Cucumber. Want to watch along? Visit your local library or google the show title for multiple replay options.

    King George and the Ducky with Ellen Davis

    This week, Kendall and Kate talk with Dr. Ellen Davis, a professor of Old Testament/Hebrew Bible and Practical Theology at Duke Divinity School. Dr. Davis uses this opportunity to share with us the profound importance of allowing children to wrestle with the hard stories of Scripture in slow, thoughtful, contemplative ways. When we try to protect children from stories of brokenness, she shares, a reality they *know* exists in the world, we cut them off from the story of redemption too. We actually obscure the very gift that our faith offers them. Adam breaks down the song Endangered Love, more commonly known as Barbara Manattee. Want to watch along?

    Esther, the Girl Who Became Queen with Laura Lieber

    This week, Kendall and Kate talk with Dr. Laura Lieber, a rabbi and professor of Jewish studies at Duke University. They discuss the story of Esther, what Dr. Lieber calls one of the most ironic, funny books in the Bible...and strangely the least funny VeggieTales episode. It's a story of turning things upside down to see what it reveals. Want to watch along? Visit your local library or google the show title for multiple replay options.
