I applaud states such as Texas, Arkansas, and Louisiana, which are currently waging court battles to defend their laws requiring that the Ten Commandments be on display in public schools. When I was in grade school, this was common practice. But that was before our public schools expelled common sense from the classroom and forgot that boys are male and girls are female. Survey God’s list of do’s and don’ts in Exodus 20, and we quickly realize our need for repentance.

It's not a shocking statement to say that our world has a media problem. Bias, ideology, and lawless journalistic standards have brought the average person's trust in the media to an all-time low. While this problem is most prominent within secular circles, Christian media has a crisis of its own, and it's rooted in compromise. Many of these organizations were once sound—but a little compromise compromised the whole publication! Numerous newsgroups operating under a "Christian" banner have begun promoting abortion, attacking Israel, applauding LGBT ideology, and disseminating apostasy.

With everything happening in our world right now, as parents who have young kids, it's tempting to want to protect them, to shield them from the heaviness, to say, "they are too young to carry this," ... but the reality is, they are already seeing and hearing about the evils of our day, and they are asking questions. God has called us, as parents, not to hide these things from our children, but to walk through them and teach them together, with His truth as our guide.
