Why Christians Should Be In Media
Tumblr

The media. It’s arguably the most liberal and biased things that has ever been produced. So why would anyone want anything to do with it? Why would anyone, let alone a Christian, want to be a part of a newsroom or social media company that pushes a serious bias to one side or the other? Being a part of the media business isn't easy. Not a whole lot of people want to be there. But guess what, Christians…you should be there.

In the light of the new president of the United States, the media, as well as the country, have been in an uproar. I have heard handfuls of Christians criticizing news companies for not giving unbiased news reports. I have also heard those same Christians tell people that we need more Christian influences in the media. Instead of telling other people what they should do and be a part of, why don’t you try diving into that world? The media world can be a scary, scary place. But it won’t ever be conquered if you don’t get out there and do something about it.


I think I speak for most Christians when I say we’re tired of being misrepresented in the eyes of the media. It’s hard. But what’s even harder is seeing a lost world trying to stand on its own two feet. God put us here for a reason. He put us here to build relationships with other people, and more importantly build a relationship with Him. God has called each and every one of us to walk into hard and dangerous places to preach His Word and His love. God has given us the media as a tool to reach so many lost people. Why wouldn’t you want to be a part of it?


God made you for a reason. Don’t you want to have an impact on this world? Even if you don’t get to speak to thousands of people, you could have such a great impact in your media’s workplace. If you live by your convictions and God’s Word, people will see and want to know what makes you so different. You don’t even have to preach in a news article or a blog post. Just be a man or woman of God. Show others how God's People really are. And in turn, they'll see a whole new light.

So what is a Christian to do? Are you feeling represented? Are your opinions and voices being heard? No? It’s time Christians. It’s time we band together and make our voices heard throughout the nations, proclaiming the Word of God, proclaiming His goodness, and proclaiming love. What are you waiting for?

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
