The Compass Chronicles Podcast: Where Fandom Meets Faith
Compass Chronicles is a podcast where fandom meets faith. Each episode explores the stories we grew up loving from comics, movies, anime, and games and asks the deeper question.
What do these stories reveal about hope, sacrifice, redemption, and the human search for truth?
Hosted by Javier and Mickey, the show brings real conversations with creators, fans, and thinkers who believe the stories that shaped us still have something important to say.
