When I told my friends and staff members that the movie had 91 f-bombs, which averages out to approximately one version of the "f" word per minute, they were all shocked. "Really? I didn't even notice" was the most common response. Really, you didn't notice one "f" word each minute?
It's tempting to think that what we watch on TV, see at the movies, listen to on our iPod, play on our gaming systems and read before bedtime doesn't affect us. But they do. We must take the images, languages, and stories we allow into our minds and hearts very seriously.
If you don't think there's a problem with all the cultural influences that invade your life daily, chances are that you're interpreting right and wrong through a distorted lens.
Instead of blindly absorbing whatever media you encounter, allow God's Word and the guidance of His Holy Spirit to …re-adjust your standard of right and wrong, and to live in a manner that brings glory and honor to God.
