Stunning statistics that make me go "Huh!?"

OK, a statistic coming from the CIA's World Fact Publication saying that 76% of the Countries citizens identify themselves as Christians. According to the U.S. Census there are 307,710,837 people breathing air in the US. So what is 76% of that number = 233,860,236.
Now, I do on occasion like technical art but I'm pretty sure i have no left brain and therefore am no lover of math but... even my little brain can understand that that is a lot of stinking people! So why is it that the largest and fastest growing industry of interactive entertainment, Christians have got less then 1% of the gaming market, to say nothing about having anything on console (PS3, 360, Wii). I think the largest Christian franchise to even come close to breaking into the mainstream entertainment market is Veggie Tales, (which targets mainly PC games but whose majority of revenue earnings is from TV, film & toys).
I don't mean to sound like I'm ranting, that was never the intention of this blog site. This site is to spark awareness, passion and encourage all of us to step out in greater levels of faith and boldness... not only in our prayer life but in our actions and decisions, especially those that concern this industry.
So when I see statistics like this is stirs and kindles a flame inside telling me that there are so many talented and creative Believers out there making amazing games and creations (if only for the world at the moment)... now to find as many of them as we can and show them that they're not alone in their game dev world, that there are so many of us out there that have incredible passion and drive to see insanely fantastic games, stories and content created! That there is strength in our unity and combined faith. We are called to be in the world but not of it. Does that mean Christians need to leave their jobs to follow a more noble pursuit? are you frack'n kidding me? (sorry for the BSG pun). What better mission field have we then to be right were we are, in the lion's den... in the middle of the fastest and most influential entertainment industry in the WORLD! Just remeber that you are not alone. Even Daniel (in the lion's den) wasn't alone. He was guarded and encouraged by angels and even had a secular king praying all night for his safety! Think about that one for a bit ;)
We need to be praying for direction and strategies from the Holy Spirit who is the "helper." We need to be encouraging each other and building relationship with other believers in the industry continually. That is how the Games Movement is going to start, first by prayer then by relationship... armed with both the rest is... well not easy but no longer impossible! ;)
