After a quick recap from episode 1, we had an unexpected phone call from one of our D&D buddies, Jarek Partsch. After listening to this episode, go check out their podcast: The Tales We Tell. Jarek produces the show with his wife, Hannah, and co-host Katy.

We get back into the episode by exploring the journey from character creation to gameplay from a unique perspective. We delve into what it means to play from a meta perspective and how that translates to our spiritual walk with Jesus. More importantly, we dive into the understanding of not walking out our lives from a meta perspective, but using our God-given identity and creativity to look beyond immediate circumstances or the desire to control our situations and align with God's calling and direction. By examining biblical insights and personal testimonies, we hope to inspire listeners to integrate these lessons into their daily lives and live their lives hungry and thirsty for righteousness.

In the debut episode of Dungeons & Disciples, Josh Shaw and Tony Benda discussed their passion for using Dungeons and Dragons as a tool to share Jesus with others. They shared their personal experiences and emphasized the importance of building a spirit-filled role-playing community and fostering fellowship. They also discussed the two primary methods for creating characters in D&D, and how self-awareness is crucial for personal growth and communication. Later, they talked about the intersection of personal growth and safety in tabletop gaming, and how Christians can integrate their faith into the gaming community.
