Why Christians Should Be In Media

It's our time.

Why Christians Should Be In Media

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've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
