Mark Driscoll: 'Twilight' Is for Girls What Porn Is to Boys

Author and outspoken pastor Mark Driscoll says he wants to make it clear that movies such as "Twilight," which opened this weekend, are something Christians should not treat as harmless entertainment and, in fact, have inspired some real-life demonic trends.

Subtitled in his blog, "A Father's Fright of Twilight," Driscoll states, "Twilight is for teenage girls what porn is to teenage boys: sick, twisted, evil, dangerous, deceptive, and popular."

80% say the Bible, the Koran and the Book of Mormon teach the same truths

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: iSHINE MINISTRIES CHALLENGES PARENTS AND LEADERS TO SHIFT THEIR FOCUS TO SPIRITUAL NEEDS OF ‘TWEENS’ “There is a God who is crazy about your 11-year-old. And if we don’t tell them that, the media will tell them who they are.” – Robert Beeson, iShine Founder FRANKLIN, TN (August 8, 2012) -- In 2006, iShine Ministries was founded to provide a positive, Christ-oriented, life-altering alternative to ‘tweens’ (young people age 8-12). Today, the multi-media organization produces one of the highest rated ‘tween’ television shows in the country, “iShine KNECT,” one of the most highly attended tours in the country and books, music, websites and more, all oriented around the ‘tween’ audience. And now, they’re ready to take it up a notch. iShine recently sponsored the SHiFT leaders event, encouraging parents, ministry professionals and other people of influence to reevaluate and shift their approach when it comes to teaching, leading and interacting with this young population. Partnering with New York Times Best-Selling author, Francis Chan (Crazy Love, Forgotten God), and esteemed Best-Selling author and founder of the Barna Group (a faith-based research institute), George Barna (Maximum Faith: Live Like Jesus, Revolution, Transforming Children Into Spiritual Champions), iShine is launching a movement for the sake of the nation’s children and their future.                                                                                                   “The point is that we as industry leaders and influencers have to pay attention to one of the most important audiences today—that is tweens,” says Beeson.  Barna echoes that notion: “After years of research, it is my discovery that the most productive, influential, world-changing ministry is ministry to children…sadly, the body of Christ has consciously decided not to prioritize ministry to children. What we’re doing isn’t working.” Pictured (l – r) at the iShine sponsored SHiFT event in Nashville are: musical guest and in:cite media recording artist Rachel Chan, Francis Chan, Robert Beeson, George Barna, Bema Media LLC president Brad Mathias and host Chris Spradlin, founder of EpicParent TV. Unfortunately, statistics affirm that statement. “According to our research and based on a survey of 8- to 12-year-olds conducted by the Barna Group,” says George Barna: 1% possess a biblical world-view 18% believe in moral absolutes. 32% believe that Jesus was resurrected 36% believe that the Bible is totally accurate 40% believe that the purpose of life is to love God fully 67% believe that being a “good person” equals salvation 68% believe that good people can earn salvation 70% of 8- to 12-year-olds in America believe there is no Satan 80% say the Bible, the Koran and the Book of Mormon teach the same truths “Satan would probably love 90% of what goes on in the church in America,” says Francis Chan. “‘I don’t even need to deceive them. They’re deceiving themselves.’ We must set the example as people who live by faith.” Creating such an example is the very foundation of iShine and their challenge to parents and leaders everywhere. “Shift your focus and pay attention to the 8- to 12-year-old people in our communities,” implores Beeson. “What is scary to me, especially as a dad, is that media is what is shaping these children's lives.  They spend 60 hours a week ingesting media and on average only 1 hour a week in church (source: The Kaiser Family Foundation). If we don't shift our focus to this age group, we risk losing this generation." With a nationwide tour launching this fall, featuring Mission Six, The Rubyz, Jamie Grace, Rachel Chan and more, iShine is doing its part to provide resources, events and destinations for young people to plug in to life, to community and, most importantly, to Christ. “Children are still teachable,” says Barna. “They haven’t picked up the skepticism or cynicism yet. They are our greatest opportunity to change the world for Christ and to build the church of the future.” ABOUT iSHINE iShine is a Christian media group dedicated to ministering to "tweens" and their families. iShine reaches today’s “tweens” through Biblically-based live concert events (iShineLIVE!), unique television programming seen weekly on TBN (iShine KNECT), iShine artist releases to CD and DVD, interactive websites and an entire line of books and Bibles all specifically designed to be relevant to this vital audience.

My Broken Palace Leads Public School Assembly

My Broken Palace recently Sponsored a Public High School Assembly in Moreno Valley California.

 Negative Statistics provided by the Moreno Valley Unified School District called for Action from not just teachers & parents, but from local Businesses and even Churches. With stats like:

*the highest teen pregnancy rate in CA

*the 2nd highest STD rate in the County

*3rd highest student drop out rate in CA

Armed with a Touring Rock Band, a Motivational Speaker, and 1,000 copies of the My Broken Palace Book of Hope. My Broken Palace filled the Moreno Valley Eagles BleachersTwice during first & second period.

When students arrived at the gym they were greeted by "Student Advocates" from a near by Youth Orientated Community Church. Each student received a Free Copy of the My Broken Palace Book of Hope.

The Band "A Life Set Apart" performed their Hit "Phoenix" written by the lead singer Morgan about her past struggles with Depression and Self Injury and how she found Hope and rose up out of the Ashes of her Brokenness like the Mythical Bird the Phoenix.

A relevant & captivating message was presented by speaker Egypt McKee. Egypt, an X-Games Sky Diver kept the attention of 1000 High School Students through the use of Humor, Honesty and the use of his parachute. His hard hitting message spoke directly to the students sense of Self Worth  and having a Purpose for their lives.

 Youth Director Gabe Carlson invited students to attend a series of public discussions at Moreno Christian Assembly regarding topics of Brokenness ranging from Depression, Self Injury(cutting), Bullying and Suicidal Thoughts.  Gabe

also told students his team of "Student Advocates " will be available on the High School Campus "just to listen and offer encouragement" to students that would like to express their point of view regarding any challenges they see or might be experiencing.

My Broken Palace brought a Wall of Expression, where the students used sharpies and wrote personalized statements ranging from despair, abuse, addiction to statements of Hope.

Afterward, the Band Members, Gabe & Egypt met with the students on a more personal level. Signing autographs, discussing ways to get help and where to get connect to a mentor.
