Ep. 94 - Soma Games Founder Chris Skaggs Creates Golden Video Game Options for Kids
Millions of teens and tweens absolutely love gaming and millions of parents are not sure how to set up safe parameters in the home regarding gaming. Not to worry, this episode is loaded with information on how to create a healthy gaming environment under your roof. Chris Skaggs, founder and COO of Soma Games, met Jesus while in the Navy. His main mission in life is to shape the “Hollywood of Tomorrow” by acting like the CS Lewis of video games today. Since gaming is the most dominant culture shifter and biggest revenue making entertainment medium, Chris wanted to impact the most youth with a Christian worldview. He stresses that parents are not powerless when it comes to managing video game playing and setting a screen time limit and watching the type of content will keep your kids from becoming an addict.
