One of the most ultimately disastrous episodes in the history of God's people is celebrated in this lavish two-player, two-board game. In the official description, the manufacturers describe Life of Christ as an 'inspired game' whether they're claiming actual divine inspiration, or just saying they created it on a really good day at the office, isn't quite clear. A quiz game based around the birth, life, death and resurrection of Christ, it features 'over 1,400 non-intimidating multiple choice questions', because the last thing you want to feel while enjoying a board game is a sense of intimidation. This probably fits in the 'worthytainment' bracket which I may have just invented. The manufacturers claim this is a game 'where co-operation and not accumulation is the key where you can only win by assisting fellow players.' Brilliantly, you have to be the first player to build a church (rather than a hotel) in one of the biblical cities to win. But if you're a Christian worried about the damaging influence of consumerism, you might consider replacing your tired old Monopoly set with this beautifully presented 'Biblical game of fun and faith.' The 'Go' square is replaced by 'in the beginning', while the old income tax spaces rather worryingly become the 'Abyss'. You can probably see what they've done here. That's right, if you're concerned that bringing Cluedo, Connect 4 and Snakes and Ladders into your home may be opening a dangerous doorway to the occult, you can protect your kids with this range of products which put the 'fun' back into 'fundamentalist Christianity.' Have you had just about as much Cranium as you can take? Finally had your fill of Catan (or of those odd people who won't stop going on about it)? Then allow me to transport you to a world that you may not have known existed: the world of Christian board games. Fortunately for you, I have discovered a delightfully literal answer. But you may be scratching your head, and wondering how exactly one does such a thing.

The Evangelical Alliance's New Year's message centred around the phrase, and it's also the theme of this year's Spring Harvest.

There's a lot of talk about game-changing in Christian circles right now.
