From flannelgraphs to VeggieTales to TikTok, the way we share timeless truths has shifted throughout history. But does the message itself ever change—or should it? In this episode, we explore how media evolves while diving into the tension between adapting our methods and holding firm to an unchanging message. Using VeggieTales as a fun reference point, we ask: how do creativity, culture, and technology shape the way faith is communicated today?

Culture and pop culture are inseparable — every major event in history leaves its mark on the stories we tell, the heroes we admire, and the way we see the world. From the devastation of World War I that birthed a new wave of literature and art, to World War II inspiring superheroes like Superman, Batman, and Captain America, history has always reshaped entertainment. DC Comics rose in this era as a reflection of hope, justice, and resilience, giving audiences a way to process global conflict.

Even today, moments like the death of Charlie Kirk show how current events ripple into cultural conversations, shaping narratives, movements, and the media we consume. Pop culture doesn’t exist in a vacuum — it’s a mirror, reflecting our fears, hopes, and the turning points of history.

Beyond politics and controversy, we explore questions of legacy, faith, and how the church should process grief in the public square. What does this moment reveal about our dependence on cultural leaders, and where do we find true hope?

What happens when your mom turns into a cloud? ☁️ In this episode of Geek TheoCast, Stephen and Jason dive into one of Phineas & Ferb’s strangest storylines and uncover surprisingly deep truths about faith, grief, and finding stability.

From Exodus’ pillar of cloud to Hebrews’ “great cloud of witnesses,” we explore how Scripture helps us process loss, resist unhealthy coping, and discover God’s presence in new forms. Along the way, we laugh through pickle metaphors, “your mom” weather jokes, and the strange comfort of cartoon theology.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How clouds in Scripture point to God’s presence and guidance.
• Why loss can prepare us for deeper encounters with God.
• The dangers of unhealthy coping when life’s pillars collapse.
• How humor and grief can coexist without canceling each other out.
• The power of community and the “cloud of witnesses” that surround us.

Join us for a mix of laughter, theology, and cartoon wisdom as we remind you: even if your mom’s a cloud, God’s love is still the forecast.

Welcome to Geek TheoCast—where spiritual truths meet animated breakdowns! 🎉

In this episode, we dive into Phineas & Ferb through the lens of theology, focusing on the ultimate prophet-in-flip-flops: Candice Flynn. From her daily cries of “Moooom!” to the heartbreak of never being believed, Candice embodies the cycle of disappointment and persistence.

We’ll explore:

• Candice as Jeremiah – lamenting, longing, and always let down.
• Theology of the Trapdoor – why everything vanishes before Mom shows up.
• David, Naomi, and Job – biblical voices of disappointment that mirror Candice’s struggle.
• Doofenshmirtz & the Disappointment-nator – the theology of failure and persistence.
• The Redemption Arc No One Notices – God’s silence isn’t absence, and hope is louder than disappointment.

If you’ve ever felt unseen, unheard, or like your efforts vanish before anyone notices—this episode is for you.

🙏 Scripture references:

Lamentations 3:17–18, Proverbs 13:12, Psalm 13:1–2, Ruth 1:20

What does it take to go from zero to hero? Is it raw strength? Unwavering faith? Or just an absurd amount of superhero-level confidence? 🤔

In this episode of Geek TheoCast, Jason and Stephen take on the ultimate transformation challenge, exploring what it really means to change—physically, mentally, and spiritually. Through hilarious (and slightly ridiculous) challenges, Bible verses, and way too much trolling, we dive deep into:

🔥 The real meaning of transformation in faith and life

💪 Superhero training—Stephen’s questionable methods included

📖 Powerful Bible verses on growth, perseverance, and trusting in God

😂 Chaos, blindfolded obstacle courses, and Stephen’s failed pushups

As Philippians 4:13 says, "I can do all things through Him who gives me strength." But let’s be real… some of us (cough Stephen cough) might need a little extra help.

🔔 Like, comment, and subscribe if you’re ready to level up your faith AND your hero skills (or at least enjoy watching Stephen struggle)!
