The Seven Lightgliders Leaders

Lightgliders is a multiplayer online community, a platform of hundreds of games, and a digital kids' ministry, all wrapped up in one! In Lightgliders, kids get to customize their own character, play games, go on missions, socialize with friends, attend community-wide events, send postcards, decorate their own treehouse, engage in discipleship activities, and explore a world of adventure. Lightgliders is always expanding with new features being added all the time. Check out how to play in the video below, narrated by the Gliddles, who are fun characters that your kids will meet in Lightgliders!

Lightgliders equips families and ministries to impact kids during the critical years!

Everything in Lightgliders is designed to:

  1. Teach a biblical worldview and values
  2. Encourage prayer and reflection
  3. Impart a vision for service
  4. Spark meaningful conversations in the home

Lightgliders is a story designed to impart a biblical worldview and to help kids everywhere recognize that they were uniquely made to shine! Every kid gets to create their own Lightglider character and enter into the story. Lightgliders have three primary goals – to RESPECT themselves and each other, to RESCUE the Gliddles from the Machines, and to RESTORE the land from the blight. The overarching story and characters are used to point to the Far Greater Story of God's love for us revealed in the Bible and to teach the five values of a Lightglider – purpose, humility, confidence, hope, and love.

The Lightgliders gameplay and activities can be used to teach and spark conversations about the biblical narrative of creation, rebellion, redemption, and restoration. This narrative or worldview is centered upon and substantiated by the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Additional activities and videos in Lightgliders provide kids and parents opportunities for meaningful discussions and family discipleship. Parents and leaders receive weekly resources to spark conversations and spiritual formation.

All of Lightgliders' faith and values activities use the Bible.
