What is a 30-Day Secular Media Fast?

What if the noise of godless media is drowning out the voice of God? Not all media is bad... but maybe the distraction away from God is making harder to hear and see God at work.

This is a journey of a group of high school students who have committed to take 30 days to focus on God through God-centered media. This includes TV, movies, books, magazines, smart phone apps, and many social media outlets.

Here, you can follow their stories, their lives, and their challenges. Feel free to leave comments and encouragement.

Here's to today

             So here we are again, our beloved Media Fast.
             I have to be honest, I spent all day yesterday trying to finish a bunch of TV shows to "make up" for not watching them in March. I love TV, and Netflix, and Fuller House, and I am grateful that I was able to finish all of Fuller House before March, but I am also thankful for March, and the oppurtunity to serve Christ through sacrifice.
             As we begin the Media Fast again, I am actually very excited about living without secular media, as it is so often a trap I, like many teenagers, fall into, whether it be music, movies, or TV. I see it as an oppurtunity to glorify God, grow closer to Him, and be so focused on Him that I bubble over with His love and grace. I wish you all luck, and I know I will need lots of prayer this month and beyond! Love you Media Fasters.
Michaela
