he phrase “in the world, not of the world” has been used for a long time to summarize Jesus’ message to the eleven in John 17. It’s fitting. We have been born anew in the waters of Holy Baptism, but we weren’t taken from the earth when that occurred. We still live in a violent and sinful world. In response, many “Christian” products have popped up as alternatives to secular ones, like Christian romance novels, Christian television channels, and even Christian candies.The world of video games is no different. So-called Christian video games (CVGs) have been around about as long as video games themselves have been around, starting with the Bible Adventures series for the old Nintendo, which came out in the early 90s.
