Summary
Boots (BootStrapBoots) shares his journey from solo League of Legends streaming to co-founding Campfires and Dragons, a Dungeons & Dragons ministry channel. He explains how the Nerd Culture Ministry Summit helped him realize he was called to do ministry collaboratively, prompting a shift from competitive gaming content to D&D play that builds welcoming community for tabletop gamers. Boots also discusses the importance of knowing yourself spiritually before going live and how his team uses D&D as a tool to reach people who may be isolated or searching for belonging.
