The chapters cover Lakisha's background, her journey with play and theology, the intersection of play and theology, and an introduction to womanism. The conversation delves into the metaphorical use of double dutch in theological exploration, emphasizing the historical context and practical application of play practices. It also addresses the theological significance of play, the benefits of play in self-care and community care, and the pushback against play in theological and pastoral contexts.

    Games in the Bible

    We discuss the absence of tabletop games in the Bible (eeeek!) – and the presence of randomization and game-like elements. You can help us by liking, subscribing, and supporting us on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/playsavestheworld We talk about the Biblical, game-like practices of casting lots, the significance of Urim and Thummim, and the game-like nature of the parable of the talents. There is a playfulness in the Bible, and the idea of control and randomization in religious and secular contexts. We note the parallels between games, war strategy, and life, as well as the gamification of life and the playfulness in ritualized meals. We also touch on the themes of order from chaos, playing a different game, and the game of being born again.
