VeggieTales Creator Partners With Child-Grooming Pro-LGBTQ Counseling Ministry

So how did we go from talking tomatoes with Bible verses and lessons on “doing unto others as you would have them do unto you” to full on queer theory, pronouns, and a gender identity crisis?

Phil Vischer, who is best known for creating the Christian-themed-but-filled-with-bad-doctrine children’s cartoon series, Veggie Tales, has made a new name for himself among the rising Evangelical Beast of Revelation known as the Woke Church. Vischer, who wonders if Latino people who vote Republican are actually just white people in disguise and who argues that churches should embrace transgender people, has been a staunch advocate for Christians trading in their moral compass and embracing leftist, pro-abortion, pro-homosexual politics all in the name of wokeness.

And While Vischer has been openly promoting progressive Democrats, identity politics, and Critical Race Theory–going even so far as to say that white people who put their kids in good schools are wicked and racist–it wasn’t until recently that he began to openly question the historic, biblical doctrine of sexual morality.

Once thought of by stay-at-home moms as a pioneer of children’s discipleship, Vischer has become the theologian-in-residence for the Evangelical Intelligentsia’s back alley, teaching these suburban moms that the real gospel is social justice and that Jesus probably had preferred pronouns.

At Vischer’s The Holy Post podcast, alongside co-host Skye Jethani, moral clarity is routinely replaced by winsome confusion. They’ve publicly criticized conservatives who oppose same-sex marriage, equating them to Confederate slaveholders—as if upholding millennia of biblical orthodoxy is akin to fighting for a plantation. Vischer has also affectionately referred to homosexuals as “LGBT brothers and sisters,” a theological euphemism so soft it could be used to stuff pillows. He’s taken a stand all right—just not a biblical one.

But that’s only the beginning. In recent years, The Holy Post has spiraled into a vortex of cultural compromise, where opposing the Florida parental rights bill—which prevents schools from indoctrinating kindergarteners with sexual confusion—is considered a valid moral position because “both sides have admirable reasons.” Yes, of course, the side trying to protect five-year-olds from gender theory, and the side trying to feed them drag queen story hour, are apparently moral equivalents. It’s the theological version of shrugging while the house burns and saying, “Well, the arsonist had a rough childhood.”

And now, in what can only be described as the logical conclusion of theological cowardice, Vischer and The Holy Post have officially partnered with BetterHelp—an online therapy platform that moonlights as an LGBTQ affirmation ministry with a therapy license.

Using the promo code holypost, listeners can now receive a discount while being ushered into a world of therapeutic confusion, where your gender identity options include “Transmasculine,” “Agender,” “I don’t know,” and “Other.” It’s a counseling buffet for the doctrinally disoriented, complete with rainbow flags and a side of licensed heresy.

This is the same BetterHelp that published an article titled “Where LGBTQ Pride Month Came From and Why It Matters Today”, a saccharine, revisionist history piece that canonizes the Stonewall riots as a sacred text and urges readers to “share their pronouns,” attend Pride parades, sign petitions, and financially support groups like the Human Rights Campaign and the Transgender Law Center.

Yes, The Holy Post, which markets itself as a source of Christian insight and wisdom, is now officially funneling Christians into the arms of a company that treats homosexuality, gender confusion, and sexual deviance as not only valid identities—but sacred, untouchable expressions of the human soul. And they’re making a profit off of it.

And all of this, of course, is cloaked in the language of “care, of compassion, of mental health.” As if partnering with a modern-day Baal worship clinic is the only way, or any way at all, to help someone with anxiety. In their world, the gospel is powerless to transform without the aid of therapists who affirm delusion as identity.

The Holy Post has become what happens when Christian media trades in its convictions for cultural clout, when the line between the church and the world is bulldozed and steamrolled into the ground. And Vischer, once the creative force behind one of the most recognizable “Christian” brands in America, now plays court jester to the LGBTQ priesthood.

So the next time you hear the plunky theme song of VeggieTales, just remember that the tomato grew up, sold out, and now sells therapy sessions to groom children who don’t know whether they’re boys or girls. And the cucumber? He’s probably non-binary now.
