Christian Gaming Is Going Strong
Cordova, TN; October 9, in the year of our Lord 2013--Family
Friendly Gaming, the industry leader in covering the family
friendly video games boldly proclaims that Christian Gaming Is
Going Strong. The CGDC 2013 Conference was held in Portland,
Oregon on July 11th through July 13th in the year of our Lord
2013. Isaiah 43:19 “For I am about to do something new. See I
have already begun! Do you not see it?” headlines the front
cover of the Program Guide. Family Friendly Gaming was not able
to attend this year. We were provided a copy of the Program
Guide and decided to do a write up from that, and other
information we were provided.
The secular gaming world recently figured out that video games
can be used to teach. This is something Christian Game
Developers have known for decades. Video games have become
bigger than movies, and books. Many gamers are not even aware of
the teachings they are inhaling while they play their favorite
games for countless hours every single year. This is the perfect
opportunity to teach them: “Christ's love, God's wisdom, and the
Spirit's power to effect real soul healing change in our lives.
God can use this industry to save souls.”
From everything I have seen and heard the CGDC 2013 was another
wonderful conference. There were some big names at the
conference. People like Seth Crofton, Peter Churness, Benjamin
Chhoa, Matthew Abts, Paul Gratton, Thomas Henshell, Laurene
Wells, Jii, James Marantette, and Kingsley Stephens. The event
was packed with seminars and discussions at Concordia
University. There were also workshops, fellowship, and food. A
variety of resources are also listed for the Christian game
developers. If you are a Christian and a game developer (or
would like to become a Christian game developer) then you should
check out the CGDC next year.
God bless,
