Description

Is your husband child a gamer? (Just kidding.)   Is it hard for you to relate?    Do you wonder if there’s any redeeming value in it?    Have you wondered what the Bible would say about gaming?    Are you lacking a framework for determining what’s appropriate and what's not?   If you responded “yes” to any of the above, today’s your lucky day!    Drew Dixon is the cofounder of Love Thy Nerd, and has been speaking + writing about video games for over a decade. Today he’s answering the questions we’re all asking on behalf of our kids that love video games… perhaps a little bit too much.    His new book Know Thy Gamer: A Parent’s Guide to Video Games is a great resource on gaming, and I so appreciate him bringing practical advice today on parental controls, free to play games, and loot boxes (I didn’t know either).    If you live with a gamer or know someone who does, this is a great way to expand your knowledge base on the real truth about gaming.    Resources from today's show:  Drew Dixon: Love Thy Nerd Mentioned on the show: ESRB.org Common Sense Media
