  • The Champions of Light have made it! Now hear some of the amazing highlights our players can recall in our Final Debrief of this Series.

    What were some hilarious memories from the series? What were some challenges both our players and our characters faced?

    And all along we have been connecting our story in engaging ways to real issues we face in life and faith. As we end up this series we hope you discover this hopeful truth: "When lives get derailed it's a little more stressful than when a campaign we are playing with friends gets derailed.... but God is perfectly able to take our story exactly where it needs to go."

    All of this and more as our incredible story concludes!

  • The players share their experiences and what they learned from Session 11. As we debrief, the theme of patience came up repeatedly.

    How can demonstrating patience with people and with potential obstacles help us in life? Why is it helpful to recognize that we often have a limited perspective on situations? And what do we mean when we say "not every battle is ours"?

  • Over the last few months, multiple lawsuits have rocked the entertainment industry.

    The most disturbing involves the State of California vs. Activision Blizzard including allegations of sexual harassment and discrimination within the workplace.

    A second lawsuit involves the Black Widow actress, Scarlett Johansson, suing Disney (parent company of Marvel Entertainment) for loss of personal revenue because of how the movie was released.

    In the Season Finale of ShatterCast, we share our honest opinions about the lawsuits and the impact they could have on the entertainment industry. We also discuss one troubling similarity we found in both cases - the rather strong and defensive initial response from the entertainment companies.

    How could they have handled those responses better? And in our own lives, how do we handle times when we might be accused of something?

    Special Note: We are not legal experts and are just sharing our opinions based on reports that have gone public at the time of this recording.

    And no worries, ShatterCast will return for SEASON FOUR in the near future!

    [Topics: Defense, Accusations; Scripture Verses - James 1:19-20, Psalm 37:5-6, Philippians 2:5-11]

  • Nintendo Switch announced their new model, the Switch OLED. But with just an upgrade to a dock and the screen, has Nintendo done enough to convince consumers it is worth the increased price tag?

    And out of nowhere, Valve decides to enter another handheld into the market, the Steam Deck. Who is the target audience and will it prove to be a direct competitor to the Switch?

    Valve has also been very open with who can use the Steam Deck. What can we learn from this about the nature of teamwork especially when it comes to aspects of life and faith?
