Review of The Book of Esther
We’ve recently had a new review from Rev Reads. Extract: "The story of Esther, in its length, drama and foreign context (that we aren't used to seeing good biblical imagery for) made this one an especially enjoyable read [...] I didn't want to put it down!"
Finishing Galatians
In the last week, I’ve been writing some articles for the back of the Epistle to the Galatians like “Galatia and Galatians”, “When was Galatians written”, “Antioch and Antioch” and “Magic in the Greco-Roman World”. I also recorded the last “Explaining the Pages of Galatians” today for our Patrons. This video is a 2-minute clip that you can view here:
The Great Commission Game: Update
We’ve signed off on the proofs and this month we will be seeing the full production sample before it goes to press! Here’s a timeline:
Mid Jun : The games come off the press in China
Aug : Arrive in UK
Late Aug/Sept/Oct: Get to you depending on where you are
As we are printing in China, the Trump Tariffs are going to affect things, but instead of going into all the details (as it’s so changeable and uncertain), instead please can I encourage you to pray that we can get the game to our US backers and shops without either delay or excessive extra costs. I’m praying that by the time we need to fulfil the tariff will be back to normal.
TABLE TOP SIMULATOR: Paul is currently updating the TTS mod to have all the most up-to-date cards, stats and rules clarifications. In the next week or two it will be up, so backers should keep an eye out for that on updates and discord!
We’ve has been playtesting the game recently and this photo is from a narrow victory in the final round. We are really pleased with the balance of the game and how it so often comes out on a knife’s edge at the end!
Prayer Requests
Smooth Production and Delivery: Please pray the production prints correctly, stays on schedule and the US tariffs go back to normal.
Audiobible Idea: Please continue to pray! We’ve submitted an official proposal to the license holders of the NIV audiobibles and we are still awaiting their official reply.
