02 / GAMING

More than a game. A challenge. A community. A calling.

Gaming is where I push against difficult challenges, form lasting friendships, and take part in a growing digital community. I stream as mksnips on Twitch.

WHY I GAME

A place to push limits and build connection.

CHALLENGE

Keep pushing

I love the way difficult games demand learning, problem-solving, coordination, and the determination to improve.

THE BEGINNING

It started young

I remember watching my uncle play video games when I was young. Games like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 became an important part of my own gaming story.

COMMUNITY

More than teammates

Gaming has introduced me to lifelong friends. I want to keep building a community where people can connect, compete, and belong.

PURPOSE

Show up with intention

I believe Christians are needed in every space, including the digital places where people spend time and build relationships.

A GROWING WORLD

A digital space worth taking seriously.

Gaming connects people across communities and continents. This section is reserved for a sourced, interactive look at how the worldwide gaming population has grown—and where it is projected to go.

THE INTERSECTIONS

One person. Different perspectives.

These are distinct stories. The way one part of my life informs another isn’t necessarily the same in reverse. Select a perspective to explore it.
