In this very special Clark-less episode, the guys try to do a decent show without him. As much as we want to pat ourselves on the back, it's a little lacking in something. But they try their best to do some recaps of the content that came out in 2022, and also talk about what it looks like to do year end youth ministry evaluation, along with discussing some of the challenges coming up ahead.

In this episode, the guys sit down to talk about their first impressions of the Disney+ show She-Hulk, and have a bit of a rant as to what’s going on in the DC Universe which leads to a really important discussion: as youth workers, how can we learn from the DCEU’s mistakes when it comes to leading with vision in our youth ministries? The guys also talk about what it looks like to set a Biblical foundation for youth ministry that allows for contextualization as well as leading with vision.

In this special episode of Thanos to Theos focused on youth ministry applications, the guys get together to talk about leading through change. We've all been through so many different kinds of adjustments in the last few years, and this conversation is focused on what we've seen in our respective ministries, how we've led through various changes, and what we've learned in hindsight. With a particular emphasis on what it looks like to become more gospel-centered, we hope that you will be encouraged as you hear about the challenges and blessings that the hosts experienced in shaping their youth ministries to be more gospel driven.

And we're back! Welcome to the 5th season of Thanos to Theos! Ok we're just kidding. We took an extended break because the MCU took an extended break, but we're back with our thoughts and analysis on the first 5 episodes of Moon Knight. We also take a bit of time to discuss the new "The Batman" movie, and the DC HBO Max show, Peacemaker. Did Clark enjoy any of the DC movies/shows? Was Moon Knight too scary for Mike? Does Kevin use the word "interesting" too much? And is it just us, or does Harrow kind of look like Mark McGrath from the 90’s band Sugar Ray?

Listen in on this spoiler-saturated episode where we discuss The Book of Boba Fett and hear Mike's epic "theosification" of the themes in this show. We talk about what it looks like to keep the main thing the main thing in our youth ministry planning, as we all know how hard it can be to keep things on track as we plan for our ministry calendar. What did you think of the Book of Boba Fett? What are some of the ways that you've been able to keep things on track in your youth ministry? We would love your feedback, input, or questions for future episodes!

Dr. Russell Moore joins this wide ranging podcast episode as we discuss the dual role of comic book stories as a mirror (which shows us who we are) and a map (which normalizes and reinforces certain values). He takes us to school about why Superman is so heroic and shares insight into how youth workers and parents can help their kids develop cultural discernment.
