Where's God When I'm S-Scared?

**Where's God When I'm S-Scared?**is the first episode of *VeggieTales*. It features two stories that deals with the topic of handling fear. The first story has Junior facing his fear of monsters, while the second story is a retelling of the Bible story of Daniel and the Lions' Den.

## Plot

### Opening Countertop

Bob and Larry greet the viewers on the countertop and read a letter they received from a six-year-old girl named Lucy Anderson hailing from Phoenix, Arizona. Her letter reveals that she is afraid of monsters in her closet. Larry chimes in, remembering when he thought monsters were in his closet, but they turned out to be his fluffy bunny slippers. Bob tells Lucy to check and see if it is just her slippers and then segues into the first story: *Tales From the Crisper*.

### Closing Countertop

We return back to the countertop with Bob and Larry to wrap up the show. Bob compliments Larry's performance in the Daniel segment, to which Larry thanks him and replies that it was his "finest hour". They both proceed to hop over to Qwerty the computer to talk about what was learned today, triggering the "What Have We Learned" song to play and interrupt Bob, much to his annoyance. After the song is done, Bob explains how Junior Asparaguslearned that no one has to be afraid because God is bigger than anything and is always looking out for everyone because he loves everyone so much. Larry then adds that in the Bible, Daniel learned he did not have to be afraid because he know God was protecting him from the danger of the lions in the lions' den. They then see if Qwerty has a Bible verse for them. After accidentally providing a meatloaf recipe, Qwerty displays the verse of the day: Isaiah 41:10: "So do not fear for I am with you." Bob encourages the viewers to remember that specific Bible verse whenever they feel scared and before they go to sleep at night, they should pray with their mom or dad to thank God for always looking out for them. Larry agrees and the duo sign off after reminding the kids that God made them special, and he loves them very much.
