Discernment in an Age of Distraction | What Kind of Stories Should We Be Consuming?

In a day when children are influenced by video games and media, how do we get our children to read? Culture is unraveling all around us. We must use our time wisely. How do books fit into that to grow us spiritually? Tune in as Dr. Mark Hamby joins Yvette Hampton of the Schoolhouse Rocked podcast for an interview to unpack these questions.

Our mission at Lamplighter Ministries is to make ready a people prepared for the Lord, by building Christlike character, one story at a time. To learn more about our family collection of rare books, dramatic audios or guild programs visit lamplighter.net.

Looking for a Christian college that offers more than a degree? We understand that it's a challenge and that's why we created The Masters Guild. The Masters Guild will prepare you to think theo-logically, how God thinks, in order to live theo-centrically—how Jesus lived! Thirty years in the making, a new educational model has been launched. Built upon time-tested philosophies, this new educational platform will prepare students morally, educationally, philosophically, and theologically. THE MASTERS GUILD has implemented a cutting-edge approach to education that will prepare students to be productive, creative, and entrepreneurial. Visit themastersguild.net for more information.
