#587: Video Reality

Does your son play video games?A grandfather asked his grandson, “Why do you like playing Fortnite so much?” His grandson’s reply was telling: “Because I’m good at it.”Why do we have such an inner drive? To be good? To win? Sometimes at the expense of others? The answer lies in The Fall. Mankind was created, and God said it was “very good.”* Everything Adam and Eve needed was woven into them to worship God and obey Him.However, when they decided to believe the serpent instead, that inner drive became corrupted. And, unfortunately, the rest is history.Teaching our boys what true goodness is, by showing them the life of Jesus, takes this concept out of the fake worlds of video games and plants it firmly in the real world around them.For information about raising your son into a godly man, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
