God created us to be creative, expressive people. That's what so many people love about music, movies, and television---the chance to experience something creative or original. These things tell a story, and we love to feel like we're part of the story. But not everything out there is good to listen to or watch... It takes wisdom to know what to fill your mind with.
This book won't tell you what you should not listen to or watch. Instead, this book is filled with principles to help you gain the wisdom needed to help you make wise choices about what you choose to be entertained by.
In Wisdom On...Music, Movies and Television, you'll:
* Explore the reasons you watch, read, and listen
* Discover the importance of creativity in God's plan for us
* Understand more about Christianity and the media
* Develop a worldview to help you make wise decisions
After you read this book, you'll have a better understanding of why you watch and listen to the things you do, and you'll be able to discern what is best for your own heart and soul.
There never seems to be enough time or money for what we want to do. Sometimes it can be overwhelming trying to manage our schedules---between school, work, sports, friends, and our family.
