Little Guys Can Do Big Things Too

Thanks for stopping by VeggieTales Review! Whether you're a fruit, a vegetable or something else, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

The main lesson of VeggieTales - Dave and the Giant Pickle is that it doesn’t take people of great stature or strength to make a difference– all it takes is someone that’s willing to do what’s right.  This is a powerful lesson if we could grab hold of it.

I think that all too many times we say we want to do great things for God, but when the opportunity comes, we’re not up to the challenge that would prepare us for it.  If you look through the Bible you see a lot of instances where those that were used to do great things by God were not only faithful in the small things, they were also challenged before they could do the great things.

I Love My Lips

What do you think about your lips?  Do  you love them?  Larry does, and he doesn’t mind telling Archibald all about it.

Look for a drawing of Mike Nawrocki in Archibald’s cards, and a picture of Flibber-o-loo hanging in the background.

VeggieTales: Are You My Neighbor?

**½

From the Box

Are You My Neighbor? contains two hilarious, fully computer-animated stories that teach kids a biblical perspective on loving others.

The Story of Flibber-o-loo

Big Idea’s award-winning writing and animation bring the parable of the Good Samaritan to life in this delightful, storybook adaptation of the biblical tale. Through rhyme and song, kids learn that loving your neighbor means helping those in need– even if they don’t live next door!

The Gourds Must Be Crazy!

Join five year-old Junior Asparagus and the crew of the U.S.S. Applepies as they boldly go where no vegetable has gone before! Can Junior’s and ship’s engineer Scooter repair the Applepies before a giant meteor smashes it to bits?!? And what about “oddball” crew members, Jimmy and Jerry Gourd? Could they possibly help? This hilarious sci-fi spoof shows kids that “loving your neighbor” means appreciating those who are different instead of making fun.
