  • Devotions for Lent 2021 Heather Roth Johnson, Editor
    Devotions for Lent 2021 Heather Roth Johnson, Editor February 17 Sorry! “And forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us.” (Matthew 6:12) No matter what age, I always have loved games. Online gaming, cards, and board games - I will play anything. But the best game is Sorry! That feeling of squashing someone else’s pawn, sending them home, and claiming their spot while saying in a snotty voice, “SORRY!” is exhilarating. As a kid, I would follow the “sorry” with “not!” These days “sorry not sorry” is a common phrase used to express a lack of regret or repentance. Sometimes people say it to be funny, but sometimes when people are forced to apologize, you may hear “sorry...not sorry.” Today marks the first day in lent. We ash our foreheads, hear the call to repentance, and relearn about the forgiveness of sins. Isn’t that what we get in Christ Jesus? True forgiveness? No “sorry not sorry” from him, but instead everlasting life, love, and forgiveness. Who do you need to forgive today? Jesus, in the game of life, help us to love and say we are “sorry” to others. Amen. February 18 Crazy 8’s Jesus said, “Don’t store up treasures on earth! Moths and rust can destroy them, and thieves can break in and steal them. Instead, store up your treasures in heaven….Your heart will always be where your treasure is.” (Matthew 6:19-21) It’s been said, “the one who dies with the most toys wins.” In other words, life is all about accumulating stuff.

  • June 16, 2019 the Well Played Life: the Game of Life I Grew up in A
    June 16, 2019 The Well Played Life: The Game of Life I grew up in a family that was, and still is, BIG on playing games! Every year we would get at least one new game for Christmas and add it to our overflowing game closet. In the summers and any school break, my sisters and I would gather around the table and play game after game… double solitaire, spit, war, pinochle, scrabble, monopoly, backgammon, encore, trivial pursuit, Jenga, just to name a few. While we played, we would talk and laugh, bicker and fight as siblings do so well, we’d win or lose, and then start again. Each game has its own set of rules and instructions, its own end goal and purpose – often to finish with the most points or the most money! Today we’re kicking off a new 5-week sermon series called “The Well Played Life,” where we’ll delve into one game a week to see what life lessons are taught through the game and then hold them up to the teachings of our faith to see how they line up. Today, we open our series with the Game of Life. The goal in the Milton Bradley Game of Life is to make it to the end with the highest accumulated value. Your wealth might be in cash on hand, invested in your real estate, or collected through the Life Tokens which represent the random acquisitions of money along the way. Different choices and stokes of luck determine how much you are able to accumulate – did you choose to go to college or start working right away, what kind of career did you end up with, and how much did you make? How many kids do you have and how many spaces along the board did you land on that added to or subtracted from your overall wealth? There’s paydays, insurance, stocks, investments, lawsuits, and even wagering on games of chance.

  • Marmalade RISK Case Study
    Bringing a Classic Board Game to the Digital World Marmalade Game Studio Develops RISK: The Game of Global Domination for Intel® Processor–Powered All-in-Ones By Karen Marcus This case study examines the process that game developer Marmalade followed as it created an electronic version of Hasbro’s classic board game, RISK: The Game of Global Domination. The game plays well on desktop computers and 2 in 1s, but it really shines on All-in-One (AIO) PCs, which incorporate advanced graphics and multitouch technology powered by Intel® Core™ processors, all behind a high-definition (HD) screen. We explore the decisions the development team made regarding design, user interface (UI), and enhancing the game for the AIO experience. Background Several manufacturers build AIO devices, which are PCs that look like giant tablets but perform like powerful desktop computers. For traditional computing tasks, the up to 27-inch displays and accompanying keyboards support productivity. But the devices can also be laid flat on a table for gaming and other activities that take advantage of the versatile touchscreen. Some AIOs are highly portable, with a built-in battery designed to hold a charge for long periods. Hasbro’s RISK: The Game of Global Domination is the most recent physical version of this classic board game for two to five players. Each player uses pieces that represent troops to occupy territories and continents on the game board, which depicts a world map. The object of the game, which incorporates elements of both strategy and luck, is to occupy the entire map and eliminate the other players.
