What would happen if we all came together to truly pray "Thy Kingdom come"? What would the world look like? How different would the culture be from the culture of the world today?

[Rebroadcast] THE REDEEMED ZOOMER HAS GONE VIRAL! Using Minecraft to Grow the Kingdom of God

October 21, 2024 • Frameworks, a Biblical worldview initiative from Northwest Christian School

It's like that moment at the end of Iron Man 1 when Tony Stark says, "I am Iron Man."

The Redeemed Zoomer has gone viral! We originally published today's episode of Kingdom Culture Conversations - an interview with the mysterious alter ego known as "Redeemed Zoomer" - on May 30, 2024 because so many Northwest Christian were into RZ's YouTube channel.

But, between then and now, the Redeemed Zoomer has gone viral! His identity is known but, more to the point, his heart for students and youth culture is all the more apparent! So, today, we're rebroadcasting that original interview so that our listeners can hear again that the Lord can literally use ANYTHING - including the video game sensation Minecraft - to reach people and grow the Kingdom.

The original show notes follow...

He has a secret identity, an alter ego of sorts.

And, he's rather like a theological super hero.

No kidding.

Known only as the "Redeemed Zoomer", he's working to redeem mainline protestant churches from the inside, using Youtube and Minecraft as his primary tools. For the time being, he's not revealing his identity but instead is known only as his screen name, his Youtube handle. But with one of his videos having garnered over 7 million views, it's clear that his message is resonating with a very large and diverse audience around the world. Using Minecraft play as the visual that draws younger viewers in, as he plays the game, he explains Biblical worldview, Kingdom culture. and Biblical orthodoxy. In the process, he's inviting a younger generation of Christ followers not to leave the traditional, mainline denominations but to lay hold of the authority of God's word and begin working to redeem them.

By the way, he's only twenty-years-old. Wow. This is going to be a very interesting episode of Kingdom Culture Conversations!
