These are two publications for Christian audiences, that have invited me to shed light on what a range of video games might mean for those communities. Firstly, from 2013-2015 for ThirdWay magazine, and more recently for Youth and Children's Work (YCW) magazine. The games in this list have been the subject of a series of articles I have written about video games and faith. They offer a chance for response and emotion to grow. They invite us to reconsider how we see the outsider and the marginalised.
They include themes of hope, loss and love. Games offer a unique way to encounter what is beyond us: other people, the world and possibly even the divine. However, many games offer experiences that invite you to explore buildings, worlds, cities and the countryside full of potential for spiritual reflection. Video games aren't high on the list of most people's spiritual spaces.
