Shortened Transcript
In Moon: Remix RPG Adventure, you don’t level up by fighting – you level up by love. You heal what the so-called Hero broke: freeing lost souls, mending relationships, restoring what was taken. It’s a parody of RPGs, but also a picture of what Paul calls “the ministry of reconciliation” in 2 Corinthians 5.
God reconciled the world through Christ, then handed us the broom – inviting us to help set things right. In the game, and in life, that means:
Notice the Caged Souls – Pay attention to the hurting that others overlook.
Listen to Their Stories – Hear before you fix. Listening is itself an act of love.
Set Them Free – Take action to restore, repair, and reconcile, even when it’s messy.
Jesus didn’t just fix the world and leave; He empowered us to carry His reconciling love into every broken place. Like the unlikely hero in Moon, we are invited to mend the world, not with force, but with love.
