For the first time ever, Erin’s asking a Big Question in the Lounge — and it’s a doozie:  Is Dungeons and Dragons actually great?   Throughout the 80s and 90s, as Erin recalls, many conservative Christians regarded the fantasy role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons as “a gateway to advance along the primrose path to perdition” — something roughly in the same moral category as “cigarettes and death metal."   Now, with the rise of Gen X nostalgia culture, the popularity of Dungeons and Dragons is once again on the rise among players of all ages. Should Lutheran ladies be concerned? Or is there a place for collaborative story-telling games like D&D in the life of a Christian? And if D&D is “actually great” (as Erin posits, having now played for a year herself) are there any simple, practical ground rules that can help make sure it remains a wholesome experience for all involved?   Connect with the Lutheran Ladies on social media in The Lutheran Ladies’ Lounge Facebook discussion group (facebook.com/groups/LutheranLadiesLounge) and on Instagram @lutheranladieslounge. Follow Sarah (@hymnnerd), Rachel (@rachbomberger), and Erin (@erinaltered) on Instagram!

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
