Dear John,
I recently shared with you how corporations and CEO's used their brands -- Lego, Skittles, Disney, and more -- to target children during "Pride Month."
But it's not only woke products in toy aisles and on grocery shelves that are being marketed to our kids. The far Left has been trying to normalize abnormal sexual behavior through the media for years.
From Amazon's musical "Everybody's Talking About Jamie," about a 16-year-old becoming a drag queen to "Cinderella," featuring Billy Porter as a cross-dressing fairy godmother -- there is now a constant stream of agenda-driven content being created for and directly targeted at our children.
And that's not all: PBS in New York City faced significant backlash for a broadcast of its "Let's Learn" series. The target audience (children three to eight years old) learned something alright -- from drag queen host "Lil Miss Hot Mess."
In addition to singing from his book "The Hips on the Drag Queen Go Swish, Swish, Swish" to the tune of "The Wheels on the Bus Go Round and Round," Lil Miss explains to children what a drag queen is: "[We are] everyday people who like to play pretend and dress up as often as we can," he said, adding, "I think we make pretty good role models."
PBS, which rakes in a significant amount of taxpayer dollars, has been overwhelmed by complaints from angry parents. And no wonder, considering the man hosting the show happily commented, "I think we might have some drag queens-in-training on our hands."
Between Big Business and the entertainment industry pushing anti-biblical viewpoints, our children's hearts and minds are on the line.
Family Research Council is on the frontlines, countering this destructive worldview on Capitol Hill, in state governments, and throughout the broader culture. Will you stand with FRC today to stop the Left's indoctrination and protect our children?
DONATE NOW
We can't insulate our kids from society's lies, but we can teach them a biblical worldview that is logical, rational, and good.
The challenge now is to engage this generation like never before -- by instilling in them both a knowledge of and a love for the Word of God.
With the recent study by the American Worldview Inventory finding that only nine percent of Americans who consider themselves to be Christian actually hold a biblical worldview, we must turn the tide and speak truth to a generation that desperately needs to hear it.
That's why we launched our Center for Biblical Worldview (CBW). The CBW is leveraging Dr. George Barna's decades of survey research to drive the development of materials that can help turn the tide on biblical illiteracy.
While our existing materials were written primarily with adults (parents, teachers, pastors, etc.) in mind, we are actively developing resources to impact the next generation as well.
The director of FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview, David Closson, shares the vision to develop materials for a younger audience:
"According to George Barna, a person's worldview is primarily developed by the age of 13. Therefore, it is critical to reach and teach children at an early age. Using content from FRC's Biblical Worldview Series as a basis, CBW would like to produce a worldview curriculum for children. The goal is to work with an experienced children's publisher to make the content accessible for younger audiences. The subject matter would include basic Christian beliefs, worldview formation, and age-appropriate conversations about family, life, and government."
George Barna explains, "a biblical worldview enables you to think like Jesus so that you can live like Jesus."
At FRC's Center for Biblical Worldview, we are committed to getting these tools out to families, pastors, churches, and youth groups to help "train up a child in the way he should go..." (Proverbs 22:6).
It's time to equip our children to face cultural lies. Will you give a generous gift to accelerate our efforts to help the next generation think biblically?
DONATE NOW
While the world stands on shifting sand, obedience to God's Word builds a solid foundation (Matthew 7:24-27).
The greatest protection we can give our kids is to equip them to face cultural lies head-on, to help them think biblically, and to apply a biblical worldview to their everyday lives. They can't defend or live out Scripture if they don't know it.
Your generous gift today will enable FRC to continue broadcasting truth, equipping pastors, empowering parents, and now reaching the hearts and minds of our children.
Thank you for your prayers and vital support of FRC's mission of education and mobilization in this crucial hour. Because of your generous support we can be fully resourced to protect faith, family, and freedom.
