Satan has free reign to speak to you through the media that you consume. That door is not really open if you’re gardening or sewing.
If you’re saved, then you have seen even subtle things in places like the Animal Channel, Where you think it would be second. And when your gardening or sewing you’re not exposed to whole lot of perverted homosexuality or gratuitous sex and violence.

forums that cover the same topics discussed in this article?
I’d really like to be a part of community where I can get feed-back from other experienced individuals that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Appreciate it!

Here is a link Media Talk 101′s website where the founder of the ministry and producer of Captivated explains this for himself.

I am very well acquainted with the ministry that put this documentary out, Media Talk 101. You aren’t the first to claim the irony of producing a DVD and using the internet to inform people of the present dangers we face in today’s media saturated society. The truth, though, is that it is not irony at all because this ministry is in no way anti-media. In fact as you pointed out they have used media quite a bit. From PowerPoint presentations to podcasts, email, video, and the list could go on; this ministry understands the power of the media platform and its ability to convey messages. With that kind of influencing power come all kinds of dangers as well, though. That is what this ministry is all about. We, as Christians, face a lot of stumbling blocks to spiritual growth and the culture we are currently in compounds that. Media Talk 101 is all about the Gospel of Jesus Christ and encouraging and challenging individuals to go deeper in their walk with Christ. They are neither technophobes nor technophiles.

Although your points are well-heeded, there are a lot of people who argue that the passive nature of technology is much different than the active nature of other hobbies like sewing or gardening. As a neuropsychologist, I would much rather see someone who is engaged in active or creative tasks than things like television, internet, and even video games. I think the research is starting to show the potential detriment of some of these things as well.

“Visit the website for more information and some nice discount offers on purchases of two or more DVDs. Why not buy a batch for your church…”
