Finding God in Video Games

“Game-splaining” and a Jedi’s Journey


Listen Later

When it comes to linear game experiences that feature binary decisions, there are certainly titles in which there is only ONE way to succeed and a plethora of ways to fail. But as a gamer who frequently plays open-world adventures, the sheer volume of choices tends to mean that nobody will play the same game in the exact same way. While that is part of the “charm” of such games, it also opens up the entirely unwanted and undesired realm of what I call “game-splaining”… the art of someone telling me (typically in an unsolicited and unwanted manner) how I should have chosen to play MY version of the game with MY personally developed character based on THEIR personal experience with the same game from an entirely different perspective.

Join us as we explore the topic of the unwanted and unhelpful “game-splaining” we experience as well as other forms of “splaining” that show up both in our video games and our real world ALL the time. There is one and only one way to the Father, but His path for each of us to serve Him on this planet is as diverse as the battlefields we are being sent to occupy until He calls us home. He gives each of us special and unique gifts to accomplish the missions He has placed us on, and because of this we will all “play this game” differently... each of us following the path specifically designed by the Lord for both the recipient as well as their intended impact on this planet.
