VeggieTales is something that, on paper, makes no sense at all. It is a series of children's videos where limbless, talking vegetables act out Bible stories. Try raising money with that pitch.

I looked back at the previous 10 years and realized I had spent 10 years trying to convince kids to behave Christianly without actually teaching them Christianity.

But that isn't Christianity, it's morality.

The world doesn't learn about God by watching Christian movies. The world learns about God by watching Christians.
