WEBSITES

Plugged InPlugged In is a Focus on the Family publication designed to help equip parents, youth leaders, ministers and teens with the essential tools that will enable them to understand, navigate and impact the culture in which they live. Entertainment is a potent influence on our culture for both good and evil. Through our reviews and discussions of that entertainment, we hope to spark intellectual thought, family discussion, spiritual growth and a strong desire to follow the command of Colossians 2:8. "See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the basic principles of this world rather than on Christ."

True FoundationsTrue Foundations is a ministry of Josh McDowell who's goal is to reclaim the younger generation by rebuilding them from the foundation up. The website offers numerous resources, based on Josh McDowell's message, aimed at rebuilding foundations for youth and adults. Josh McDowell's message provides a revolutionary blueprint to raise up a generation of transformed followers of Christ who know why they believe what they believe. His message is based on the ideas of 1 Peter 3:15 - the idea of being ready to give an account for the hope that resides within us. He wants student's belief system to become convictions. Only at that point does it become an everything system where we will be willing to die for it. You must be utterly convinced of what you believe; there is no denying it.
