Below you will find books, blogs, and articles that dive into the topic of Christianity and video games, geek culture, or other topics from a biblical perspective. There is a lot of content out there, and I wanted to create a section that includes as much of it as I can find. I am sure I missed someone or a group out there, so please let me know, and I will check it out to add it to the list below!
