Creating Games Through The Lens of Love

Written By Brock Henderson

I had the pleasure of giving a virtual talk for Biola University's game design class taught by Professor Michael Steffen. The lecture I delivered was entitled Creating Games Through The Lens of Love, and if you have spent time on the blog, the content of this talk may be familiar to you. This talk represents the first effort I've given to speaking on the subject, and I'm still working on tying all my thoughts on the subject into a cohesive whole. However, this idea is the foundation of my thinking concerning what it means to approach game development as a Christian, and I look forward to developing further.

I want to extend a special thanks to Professor Steffen. He graciously accepted my request to record the talk so I could share it on Faith Forms. Thanks again, Michael, for your time and effort spent recording and editing the session.
