Play is deeply underrated—but did you know it's actually part of God's design for human flourishing? From childhood games to laughter with friends, from the arts to adventure, play is woven into the fabric of creation. In this episode, we explore how embracing play can deepen our joy, strengthen our relationships, and even enhance our faith.

Join us as we discuss:

  • How play reflects the heart of God and is embedded in Scripture
  • The science behind play—how it shapes our brains and boosts emotional well-being
  • Discovering your "play personality" and how to invite more joy into daily life

In NICC, we see play as a divine attribute and a crucial element of healing, connection, and growth. So, what brings you joy? How do you play? Let’s rediscover the power of play together!
