• Other Terms & Conditions
    Nov 28 2024

    You ever read all of the terms and condition’s when you update your phone, tablet, or computer? Yeah, we don’t either. But conditions we DO pay attention to are the conditions that we experience in D&D. They can impact gameplay tremendously, and Josh and Tony explore what some of those are. Also, they take a deep dive into what exactly is this Unconditional Love of God. It’s hard to fathom it; it’s hard to understand it; but we certainly are thankful for it every single day that it truly is a love that is unreserved and unlimited! We highly recommend sharing this one with a friend!

  • Carnivals & Caravan Stops
    Nov 15 2024

    There is nothing better than a good celebration! Those times uplift, encourage, and produce joy inside of us. But what happens when you invited to a celebration in the middle of heartache, grief, or hurting? In this episode, Josh and Tony dive into some cool environmental scenarios to produce amazing story telling opportunities in at your gaming tables with carnivals (times of fun, laughter and joy) and caravan stops (times of reflection, processing, and character building). More importantly, the Word of God has much to say about both of those concepts when you feel like you’re on the mountain top and down deep in the valley. Sometimes this is not an easy path to understand or even go down, but we have one question for you: are you ready to journey with us down it?

  • RE-Alignment
    Oct 19 2024

    BE PREPARED FOLKS. Josh and Tony are a bit unhinged in this episode. LOL. They are pretty transparent and vulnerable as they discuss what it means to be properly aligned with God, or even how to re-align ourselves if we've drifted a bit. Remember that according to Psalms, God's word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path.

  • They're Just Kids!
    Oct 7 2024

    D&D isn’t just for adults, but for kids too! Because of looming stigmas that surround the game, many kids are not allowed to play. In this episode, Josh and Tony talk about how this game can be enjoyed in an appropriate and fun way for kids, including how to honor parents, steer clear of graphic content, and leaning into Christ in the midst of playing as a young player. Still not convinced? Josh and Tony are also joined by some special guests that have extensive wisdom and experience on this topic that will blow you away!

  • Weapons of Warfare
    Aug 11 2024

    What is one thing TTRPG players love to do? Use weapons! In this week’s episode, Josh and Tony talk about some of their favorite weapons, spells, and character buffs to make combat fun and effective in D&D. In the Christian walk, one must also understand their weapons of warfare against the enemy if we are to succeed in the middle of spiritual warfare. But here are the real questions: Who is this enemy? What are our weapons? When does the fight start? Lean in, roll for initiative, and let’s get fighting together!!!
