  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Roll for Joycast, where every episode is a quest for holy wholeness! Join Rory the Dungeon Master Pastor and Trin, Jewish spiritual guide and budding therapist, as they dive into the world of tabletop roleplaying games like Dungeons & Dragons. Together, they explore how the magic of imaginative play reveals the deep joy and enduring hope at the core of our human experience. Plus, in our Game Design Theopoetics segment, we reimagine game elements to help us shed what alienates us from our full humanity and reconnect to our divine potential. Get ready to roll the dice for an interfaith journey into eucatastrophic adventure where we believe the dungeons can be escaped, the dragons can be overcome, and we can best do it together.

  • Pluralism and Interfaith Relations in the World of D&D

    Pluralism and Interfaith Relations in the World of D&D
    Jun 16 2024

    We will discuss:

    1. The problem that shows up in gaming.
    2. Imaginatively expressing faith convictions through art, song, poetry, oral witness, and other embodied practices.
    3. Theopoetics is an acceptance of cognitive uncertainty regarding the Divine, an unwillingness to attempt to unduly banish that uncertainty, and an emphasis on action and creative articulation regardless.

    Potential solutions:

    1. Post-colonialist look at religious experience.
    2. Reframing in-game Religion.
    3. Move from existential fact to experiential form.
