as a saved Christian myself (thank you God my Father <3), the thing i love about chainsaw man is how it doesn't portray lust as a lot of other animes would. it portrays it for what it is - seeming enticing and exciting AT FIRST, but you are filled with such deep regret later, wondering "was that really worth it?". it's exactly how sin disguises itself, and is a good message.
I would rather go to hell because heaven is the real hell. Hate. Subjugation. Judgement. Puritanical nonsense. Hell has freedom. Heaven does not.
All co-hosts and guests were great this season! Goodbye season 4 💜
Eager to see how the show evolves, shoutouts to all the hard work behind s4 and those who sent in little vids!
This is so refreshing, love the video! Love, don't condemn❤
I feel that if Christianity is about to have a 5th civil war against if HAZBIN hotel is demonic and satanism or it’s just a show that’s about trying to get redeemed
That first video in the series really impacted me a lot. ❤ I'm glad you are empathetic and seek to love people and also that you reach out for people in areas that other people normally wouldn't. God bless ✝️
That means so much to hear. Thanks for watching 🙏
I wasn't aware of that origin story for Checkpoint before! I definitely agree with you that a lot of gaming channels aren't family-friendly. I'm also hyped for the video essays in the future! 🥳
0:30 Is that (prototype) Loona? I found out about Hazbin Hotel from Saberspark and I'm glad I did. Angel Dust is my favorite character. I like his quirky personality. Hopefully the show isn't ruined with crunch times. The spinoff, Helluva Boss is pretty good too. A bit more mature than the former, but still fun in its own way.
How to combine it with "what games mean" is an interesting angle, curious to see how it shakes out!
Ooooh!!!! Im so excited to watch some of these, since i dont have twitch! I love these christian gaming chanels like these sm!!!
Well…. I liked it 😂 Side note the theory is her real mom is Eve
Ill be taking that
I didn't realize how much I needed this. I'm so used to people discounting my digital life as just nerd stuff that even I sometimes forget that part of myself while online is part of me and valid. Makes me realize I accomplish a lot more and am a lot more than I normally think
Yipee
I will do that
Thank you for reaching out to people in such a unique way to share the love of God with them. 💕
I love your channel as a Christian anime lover I can really relate to you
When I hear the words "Black Friday", I think of the gothic UA-camr "It's Black Friday". I wish I could write some letters to my favorite, too...
These were amazing 😂
(12:07) "my identity is in whiteness, male-ness, and maybe christian" > CRT. You are a pastor, just not a Christian 1. 'inward ravenous wolves' [Disliked]
A fair and interesting critique from a source I was not expecting...I am pleasantly surprised.
Please pray for my friend Steve 💜💚🩵🧡❤️💖💛💙🩷💜💚💛🧡💙❤️🩵💖
Any sermon that starts with Dumb and Dumber and ends with a heartfelt takeaway about the value of intentional language and digital communications is a good sermon.
❤😊
Clodsire and fuecoco deserved better 🥲 i love your videos so much as a Christian nerd/geek and am planning on getting the Jesus loves nerds hoodie soon!!
" P A C I F I C D R I V E ?? " got a jump out of me listening while walking 😂
Yes! I do remember Homeward Bound!
Oh yes, we will forever remember the launch of the Wii.
It really depends on how well the final act goes
?
From what I've seen it's actually pretty good. A fun metroidvania like
No, Helldivers 2 is notvdeserving of best community support; especially given all the drama surrounding it
Lol
IKR
I actually think Wilds has a shot
Interesting
Both Persona and Final Fantasy live rent free in my brain
OH NY GOODNESS! I ACTUALLY SEE THAT HAPPENING!
I apologize!

Also made the hop to Bsky and have been enjoying the Feeds feature admittedly as someone who never really found personal enjoyment out of trying to look at Twitter, or Insta, or TikTok, or Substack. I think the best advice and pattern I see people chasing followers (not my bag but ymmv) is the difference between just putting your things out into the space and expecting people to come to you vs. taking the time to go to and interact with things you actually like beyond Likes and even Reposts. Former does little except for you, latter is a nice little signal boost, but connections don't form without actually replying as far as I've seen. Again, not super my cup of tea since I have VRChat for it, but just to have said it. >_>
I've definitely seen some creators asking a question that literally no one is even asking or wondering about. It's like saying "Can Christians drink water?" So I can see the response being yeah, of course, what are you even getting at?? ...But, yeah, you're not asking the question! Thank God there are folks who didn't grow up with the demonization of video games 🙏🏽💜
9:09 Of course a large part if the crew is christian. Do you have any idea how many peope work on this: writters, VAs, storyboarders, 5 kinds of animators, editors, composers, producers and I'm sure many more that I'm just not familiar with. Christianity is still the most popular religion in the world, it's completly expected
