Owning the Media: From Consumer to Connoisseur

DP Life concludes a month-long expedition to discover how we can navigate the media—books, music, movies, and the internet—as people who are conscious of God’s values and want to practice them in our daily lives. What is a sea of often mind-numbing entertainment does contain gems of true depth, especially if that’s what we are watching, reading, creating and sharing.

This article outlines what it really takes to be conscious consumers and producers in this world today, and contains links to all of the past articles that delve deeper into specific industries. Whether you are a parent, a grandparent or a young person, this message is one that will inspire you to live life with intention and pride for who you are—a child of God.

Not only can we search for the good that the media perpetuates, but we ourselves can change our culture so it spreads more constructive and healthy lifestyle examples. Join DP Life in this endeavor, and leave a comment or question to tell us what your take is, after reading Media Literacy: Survival Skills in a Media Driven World.
