Dear Family & Friends,
As a child, I, like many others, was captivated by the world of video games. I spent countless hours immersed in fantastical realms of magic, war, adventure, and speed. Yet, as the years went by, I came to a profound realization: none of these games were rooted in the biblical principles that have come to shape my life. I was being entertained, yes, but also discipled by a culture devoid of a spiritual foundation.
It wasn’t until I was 31 that I encountered Jesus and understood the calling to lead my family toward a greater purpose. From that moment, a burden grew in my heart for the next generation. Through a journey across 29 States, engaging directly with children, families, and pastors, we uncovered a concerning pattern: a deep lack of purpose among youth. This absence of purpose makes them especially vulnerable, easy targets for distraction, misdirection, and ultimately, the loss of their most valuable resource: time. Many are consumed by endless hours of digital entertainment. Video games, in particular, have become the number one driver behind this reality, shaping habits, attention, and identity. Many young people have been unintentionally discipled by systems and agendas embedded within the design and programming of these experiences. What we witnessed firsthand confirmed an urgent need in America: to reclaim this space and redirect a generation toward purpose.
This journey brought to life the words of Proverbs 22:6.
"Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old, they will not turn from it."
We cannot afford for this generation to first encounter Jesus in their 20s, 30s, or 40s. By then, years have already been spent searching for identity and direction. My extensive marketing experience working with highly recognized brands across the industry, along with numerous Christian organizations, has uniquely prepared me for this moment. It is with both conviction and experience that we founded Rain Hope Games.
We are not simply building games; we are building a new category. One where immersive technology becomes a vehicle for truth, identity, and transformation. At the core of our vision is a simple belief: when truth is experienced—not just heard—it has the power to shape hearts, renew minds, and anchor identity from an early age. Instead of conforming to the patterns that currently dominate digital spaces, we are creating experiences that intentionally guide a generation toward purpose, clarity, and Biblical grounding.
This is more than a product.
It is the foundation of a movement.
