Intertain

We are a ministry of Christian gamers based in Sydney that gathers for…

  1. Mature engagement with interactive media.
  2. Discussion on how gaming and theology intertwine.
  3. Friendship built upon genuine interconnections.

Our main Chapters focus on thematic exploration, during which we play and discuss several videogames that resonate with the theme, either by their narrative content, gameplay system, world design, or mechanical configuration. The leaders ask a question or two in every segment to guide conversation, and provide relevant biblical perspectives or other resources to spark further thought and understanding. It always ends with a games giveaway.
