Entertainment and Your Child – A Diet of Cotton Candy?

There are diversions in the church, and then there are Christian tabloid diversions to keep us up to date on the diversions. We were asked about a certain occurrence playing out at a men's conference in Springfield, Missouri, hoping we could explain the general messed-uppedness of whatever happened there.

Employers are facing the toughest labor market in our lifetime. Men have lost reason and faith, character and stability. Men aren't getting married, and they aren't growing up. But each successive generation gets worse because they lack both fathers and mothers. The mothers of the next generation of children have rushed into the marketplace to fill in for the economy, and children are left home alone. Only 47- of grown men are married and stabilized in life, down from 73- in 1960. Meanwhile, the ratio of men to women in the workplace has increased from 91- to 34- -a 57- difference- to 89- to 78- -an 11- difference-. But how is that going to help-- Absent parents are the common denominator of many recent epidemics, including obesity, STDs, attention deficit disorder, and the use of psychiatric medications on even very young children. This thing is spiraling in the wrong direction. The solution will be found in the restoration of mothering, manhood, fathering, mentorship, and relationship. --This program includes- --1.

Purity rings, purity vows, purity ceremonies, and dances were popular for a few decades among Christian groups. But, problems developed when the little boys didn't grow up and girls couldn't get married. Immaturity dominated, on-line porn took the boys down- and combining vows of celibacy with a delay of marriage -and a reputation of young marriages- was a killer for evangelicals. Why aren't our young men getting married-- Why aren't our girls getting married-- The just will live by faith, and they will marry by faith. The breakdown of faith involves the breakdown of family.
