Protecting Our Youth: The Battle Against Social Media's Dark Side

The Christian Outlook - August 3, 2024

Greg Seltz and author Jeff Crouere criticize the Olympics' opening ceremony for featuring drag queens, transgender performers, and religious attacks instead of family-friendly content. They argue that the event, meant to celebrate athleticism, unnecessarily mocked Christian values under the guise of artistic freedom and inclusion.

Bob Burney condemns the Olympic organizers' shallow apology to "those who were offended", which was worse than simply offering no apology, and accuses them of celebrating inclusion while excluding Christians globally.

Greg Seltz and Gary Bauer, head of American Values, discuss the responsibility of Christians to protect America's Judeo-Christian heritage and the dangers posed by the secular left's attempts to impose their beliefs through government coercion.

Greg Seltz turns to Josh Zeichik, Director of Church Engagement for Focus on the Family, to talk about the importance of knowing and understanding the Bible, which revives the soul, makes people wise, corrects them, and trains them to be godly. They discuss the importance of personal Bible study beyond just Sunday sermons for spiritual growth and refreshment.

The Paris Olympics and the Mockery of the Last Supper

Brian Bales and Jim Supp, Senior Teaching Pastor of Reston Bible Church in Dulles, Virginia, discuss the biblical concept of contentment, emphasizing that it is not about denying life's difficulties but finding peace with what God has provided.
