The Media, More Influential Than The Bible

What is the point of listening to the media and news reporters who can't give out reliable truth? Nothing.. BUT people still refuse to read their Truth bonding Bible. #questionable
Let's take a moment to truly realize something. People watch the news, (which most of the time is fake, unreliable, negative, or hopeless stories) , more than reading their Bible. I'm talking about Christians too. We spend hours taking our technology, technology powered with information on religious history, documents on Jesus, a thousand versions of the Bible, and we use it to watch someone make slime.
THE MEDIA CAN BLAST ONE ARGUMENT AND THE NEXT DAY THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT'S "VIRAL"
How crazy is it that more teenagers know about a fight or a ridiculous dance move than what Jesus did for our lives. More of us listen and tag along in arguments about politics than tell someone how our heavenly Father loves us. Christians today are doing a horrible job at testifying and standing up to tell the world about its Father. We'd rather join the crowds and yell out in the streets and join stupid movements than take the time to save someone from suicide because you showed them that someone has an unconditional love for them. Too many of us teenage Christians follow the voice of the world BUT then complain that God hasn't done anything for us or get upset when we don't understand what His Word means.
SO STOP AND LISTEN
Gods plan is not for us to watch what the top model is eating or wearing. That's pathetic.. yet we are so easily influenced by who does what. So why is it so hard for us to look at Jesus and want to strive to be like Him (i.e. loving, caring, compassionate, peaceful, thankful, patient etc). It baffles me watching the kids grow up not doing the will of the Father but then wonder why their life is so hard. Seems to me there is a bit of confusion that keeps growing generation after generation. Use the internet and technology for growing your faith first.. then watch a funny video.
