Guild Wars 2

Chariot of Fire [FIRE] is a Christian guild located on the Sanctum of Rall server and is a chapter of the FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship, a fellowship of like-minded conservative Christians who love God, love each other, and love video games. The term “FIRE” is in in reference to the Bible verse “Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; for our God is a consuming fire.” – Hebrews 12:28-29 and is a tribute to our former GW1 guild Our God Is A Consuming [FIRE], where our roots were first planted. FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship exists to bring together like-minded born-again Christians with the following goals:

TO PROVIDE A FELLOWSHIP….

• FOCUSED ON HONORING GOD - an online family that desires to honor God both in word and in deed, in one of our collective passions: video gaming

• FOCUSED ON BUILDING EACH OTHER UP - an online family that contains like-minded Christians to communicate, encourage each other, and grow together within

• FOCUSED ON PROVIDING A FAMILY-FRIENDLY GAMING ENVIRONMENT - an online family that is free from drama, strife, immaturity and other negative influences

FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship is currently rebuilding after a 12 month inactive hiatus. Please excuse our dust as we start back at the basics and rebuild. After going strong in the original Guild Wars for many years, with temporary offshoots into the various Call of Duty and Battlefield franchises, FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship move into an inactive status after Guild Wars 2 went live due to relationships with other former alliance guilds and the lack of in-game alliances in Guild Wars 2. recently, the core members of the original Guild Wars guild, Our God Is A Consuming [FIRE] have gotten together and have decided that we miss the focus in our gaming that the FIRE fellowship had always stood for. With that, we have recently revived the FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship in Guild Wars 2 as the Chariot of Fire [FIRE] guild.

Our intent is the same as always: be a fellowship of like-minded Christian believers, focused in building each other up, honoring God, and ensuring a safe, family-friendly gaming environment. Currently, we are utilizing a Facebook and a Steam group for our online presence and use RaidCall for VoIP. We are primarily PvE and enjoy both simple leveling and daily/living story content, as well as occasional dungeons/fractals. We also have an emerging WvW presence, with myself as Commander as well.

FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship has always maintained a selective recruitment process. We ask that anyone that desires to join our guild message our Guild Leader or one of our few Guild Officers in-game for an interview. Essentially, what we are looking for are as follows:

How did you come to know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior?
We are a Christian-only organization and we desire to maintain this standard. Christian denomination does not matter, providing that a profession of faith / salvation experience can be shared.

What are your expectations of your membership with FIRE?
We want to be upfront with our focus and we want to understand the expectations of potential members. Obviously, for a member that desires to join with a single purpose of running a 100 person Christian WvWvW zerg on a nightly basis would not be an expectations we can meet. We want to facilitate a smooth transition and open communication between potential member and guild leadership.

Will you be willing to utilize all methods of communication and fellowship, i.e. RaidCall, website, repping FIRE in-game, etc?
We want members devoted to maintaining fellowship, and to do that, we must maintain communication. we understand that life is busy and not all gamers play video games every day, but we desire to maintain a certain level of communication amongst each other that builds each other up and helps each other grow.

If you desire to join the Chariot of Fire [FIRE], the Guild Wars 2 extension of the FIRE Christian Gaming Fellowship and you are prepared to be personally interviewed either in Guild Chat or in RaidCall, please contact the following to share your desired membership:
