Many of the 2.5 billion gamers around the world are casual gamers. The type that plays games on their phone, and don’t really think about why (their designed to be addicting after all). Others just love to escape reality or sees gaming as another hobby to sink hours on end into (not saying that’s healthy, it’s just reality). So, we have some choices, demonize and avoid gaming altogether, give in and play countless hours of games ourselves, or find that sweet middle ground where you can meet gamers and be on mission to tell them or equip them for following after Jesus. This is why we’ll play games with people throughout the week, months and at events!

As we build relationships and trust with gamers, our hope is to be able to speak into their actual lives. Speaking into the issues that gamers (and all humans really) often face such as addictions, loneliness, depression just to name a few. Furthermore, we want to equip gamers that are Christian to live on mission with those that they are playing with and around. As we play games, we are equipping people for real life through prayer, the Spirit and God’s Word, drawing them closer to discipleship and seeing disciples make disciples and with gaming we can do this with all nations!
