In this episode of Weatherford Daze, we dive into the fascinating—and sometimes controversial—intersection of Christian faith and tabletop role-playing games like Dungeons & Dragons. Dungeons & Dragons and other tabletop RPGs can be a meaningful, creative outlet for Christians and families.

We share our personal experiences as Christian parents, players, and storytellers—and why we believe role-playing games can actually strengthen community, foster empathy, and even encourage spiritual reflection.

We also talk candidly about concerns Christians might have around magic, role-play, and spiritual themes—and how modern gaming has responded to those concerns with more thoughtful, sensitive design. Whether you're a lifelong gamer, a skeptical onlooker, a curious parent, or exploring how faith and fantasy can go hand in hand, this episode offers a thoughtful, honest look at what role-playing games really are—and what they aren’t.
