Protect the children

Please protect the children. The media leaves a wake of negative thinking, fear, lust, lies, prejudice and a host of other wrong messages through cartoons, movies, pictures, games and even some Christian stories if not age appropriate.

Questions to ask yourself:
  • Does my child wake at night with nightmares?
  • Do they hide their eyes several times when watching a film?
  • Is the media vehicle age appropriate?
  • Do they even understand the movie or story?
  • Do you see new habits, words, dress, as a result of media?
  • Does it promote faith and trust in Christ?

Proverbs 23:7 As a man thinks in his heart so is he.

2 Corinthians 10:5 Cast down imaginations.

The Christian walk rests on faith and trust in Christ. Fear, lust, and pride, a definite danger found in the media, interferes with the depth of faith and trust needed to live a healthy Christian life. What do your children see, hear, think, feel as a result of the media in their world? Please protect the children.
