My family really enjoys playing games. Game night is a fun tradition that we all look forward to. Some of our favorite games are those that involve world geography.
So, it was in the course of playing these games that I started to get the idea for a game (or games) that would help give me a sense for Biblical geography.
When I read the Bible, I come across names of places like Bethlehem, Jerusalem, Nazareth. Capernaum, Cana, Gadara. I read stories of Jesus or Abraham or Paul traveling from place to place, and I have very little sense for what those journeys might be like.
How would I design a game that would be fun to play, that would teach me about the geography of the places I read about in the Bible, and that would be faithful to God’s Word?
Thus began the concept that is becoming SDG Games (the business) and Journeys with Jesus (the first product of that business).
