Gaming in the Gospel: Who is Magic Dave? - Episode 000

Dive into the very first episode of the Gaming in the Gospel podcast! Host David Calvert interviews author Dave Wright (aka Magic Dave) to introduce the person behind the book and the podcast. Dave shares his personal journey, from almost becoming a history teacher to becoming an expert sound guy—and how he finally merged his passion for video games with his Christian faith. This introductory episode explores Dave’s deep history with gaming, from the IBM PC Junior to modern consoles, and reveals his motivation for writing Gaming in the Gospel. Learn why this book and podcast aren't about condemning games, but about applying the principles of the Gospel to every area of a gamer's life—especially challenging issues like digital idolatry and the pursuit of happiness.
