What happened to the good old days...

I often find myself wishing that I had been born around the 50's.  Not only because I LOVE the fashion style from that time but because it seems like everything was so much simpler.  Whenever I think about those times I think about families getting together for barbecues, kids drinking coca-cola on the sidewalk, kinda like the fourth of July all of the time.  One thing I think that I would change the most would be some of the stuff we have on TV.  We watch Survivor every Wednesday night and we normally have to change the channel or close our eyes, either because of people getting killed and things like that.  It doesn't bother me but Faith and Laurel seem to have quite a few bad dreams.  All of the bad dreams might not be because of the commercials for other shows but it definitely puts the idea in your mind.  The Bible tells us in Titus 2:7-8 how we should act and what we should put into our minds. 

In everything set them an example by doing what is good. In your teaching show integrity, seriousness, and soundness of speech that cannot be condemned, so that those who oppose you may be ashamed because they have nothing bad to say about us.

We need to put this as our example not so that we are better than non-believers, but so we can show them God's love and what it's like to be a Christian.
