For an After-Easter Special, we discuss King Mickey in the Kingdom Hearts games and compare his journeys into the realm of darkness to Jesus Christ's Harrowing to Hell! Joshua Noel, James Demmel, Christian Ashley, and Barbara Erdely discuss one of their favorite video games series and compare it to early Christian thought and the doctrine around Jesus' death! We do not try to claim that Kingdom Hearts is secretly Christian or that the creators of the game intended this comparison to be made, but rather we look at these two stories as stories to compare the events that take place in Jesus' life and in King Mickeys journeys!
.
Why was Mickey in the realm of darkness? How did Mickey get out of the realm of darkness? Did Mickey know Aqua was in the realm of darkness? What was Mickey doing during KH1? How did Riku end up in the realm of darkness? What is Mickey's Keyblade called? Why does Mickey Mouse have a Keyblade? Why was Mickey barely in KH1? What is the story of the Harrowing of Hell? Where did Jesus go between his death and resurrection? Did Jesus go to hell after he died on the cross? How long did Jesus spend in hell? We discuss all this and more in this one! Join in the conversation with us on Discord now!
