• Nov. 7, 2007 - The Golden Compass --- Viewer Beware!

A seemingly innocent children's movie is scheduled to come out this December. Don't be fooled. The Golden Compass is anything but innocent. It was written by Phillip Pullman, a proud athiest....He hates C.S. Lewis' Chronicles of Narnia and has written a triology to show the other side. The movie has been dumbed down to fool kids and their parents in the hope they will buy this trilogy and buy the books where in the end the children kill God and and everyone can do as they please. This movie stars Nicole Kidman so it will probably be advertised a lot. This is not an over exaggeration. Snopes.com has confirmed. (You can read about it here.) My own, often skeptical, 19 year old son read all the Sparks Notes on the books and says they really are as bad as the article says.

Please pass the word around so that unsuspecting parents will be informed. Also, pray for Pullman. He is a man desperately in need of the transforming power of Jesus Christ.

God forbid anyone listens to an opposing opinion. We should all stay home and only talk about things we already think we know. If anyone disagrees, they must be wrong.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion. As a matter of fact, my son has seen The Golden Compass and can now form an educated opinion about it. He also plans to read the books so he can further discuss the ideas put forth in this series. In this post I'm not telling anyone they shouldn't see the movie, I'm saying they should be informed about the true motive and message behind it. The movie cannot be taken at face value. The author himself admits it is his plan to pull children into his dark world where God is killed. I believe parents should be informed about everything their children are placing into their minds. That is our responsibility. To make informed decisions one must know the whole story. That is what I was putting forth in this blog post.

Life-Changing Books

Of course God's Word is the source of all true life changes, but I have encountered several books which have made the "Bible Life" more real to me. I wish to share those with you here.
