Know Thy Gamer Review: A Christian Parent’s Guide to Video Games

In this Bite Sized episode of The Backlog Breakdown, Nate takes a look at Know Thy Gamer by Drew Dixon, a book designed to help parents, grandparents, guardians, and church leaders better understand video games and the role they play in the lives of young people.

While longtime gamers may already be familiar with much of the material, Nate argues that Know Thy Gamer shines as an accessible introduction for adults who want to engage thoughtfully with the hobby, understand gaming culture, and have better conversations with the kids in their lives.

The episode explores the book's strengths, a few areas of disagreement, and why its practical advice for helping families develop healthy gaming habits stands out. Nate also discusses what it means to encourage and equip Christians to engage video games wisely and responsibly.

Plus, we're giving away a copy of the book! Listen for details on how to enter.
