In this week’s episode, we start a mini series on Humor and Horror. Listen in as we examine and discuss humor as not only a form of entertainment, but also a powerful avenue for communicating world views and truth claims.
In this episode, we discuss the opportunities that Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbs, takes advantage of to interject his own presuppositions and beliefs and how we, as Christians, should respond.
After that we talk about the hit TV show The Office. So many people love this hilarious show, but do they take the time to stop and think about what is being communicated through the narrative story of the lives of these office workers?
In this episode, we take time to look into some of the ideas conveyed and how well they hold up to the truth of reality.
Join us next week as we dive into the response on whether Christians should and can redeem humor as a weapon for the glory of God.

In this show hosts Cody Anderson, Daniel Uptain, and Roy Uptain examine the Arts from a biblical perspective. We take on many different philosophical and theological views and line them up with the Scripture. We pull out the error and fallacy of the secular worldview that lies within all forms of the Arts. In doing this we examine how we are to view these arts as followers of Christ and how we need to engage our culture around us. These areas of the Arts include but are not limited to: movies, music, literature, paintings, drawings, digital, and graphic design.
