We just turned down an "episodic HBO" show for H. He looks just like the main character he could've been a son for. But, after researching the show, it is definitely not the kind of show with which we would like to be involved.
It is crazy how the devil tempts you. "It's just 7 lines...most of which is with voice-over." "Most of it is pieced together, he won't see much." "It's a great opportunity for his career."
And then there is the Holy Spirit bringing back memories of the Prophets' voices: "Learn what you should learn. Do what you should do. Be who you should be." "Make sure children are taught what Heavenly Father wants both secular and spiritual." "Look to your mother for a pattern to follow, NOT to society that hasn't an eternal perspective." "What would the Lord Jesus do?" "Seek ye first the kingdom of God." "Choose the good part." "Run as Fast as you can to higher ground...listen to the prophet." and one of my favorites: "NEVER let an earthly circumstance disable you spiritually!"
Well, I wrote back about the opportunity: "That is not a show that we will participate in." Yes, it was grammatically incorrect, but that is all that I could write.
So, as it was told in Joshua 24, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." There has to be many worthy works out there that our children can work with, something worthy of God's approval. Something that we wouldn't want to shut out of our home. That is the type of movie or TV show for which we'll wait.
