Treasure Chest October 2015: Geek Culture, A Christian Defends Video Games, And More!

Happy birthday to me ^_^ My bday was on Oct. 18 and I’m now 31! God has blessed me with such an amazing life thus far I can’t complain at all. As a gamer, anime fan and geek I’ve surely matured. Even these writings are a testimony to that. I never once believed I would be able to use my knowledge and experience as a gamer or anime viewer for any good to God, and at the moment I’m writing for some of the largest Christian geek websites on the net! God is good, that’s 100% true.
