The Most Hostile Environment for Our Daughters Ever- James Dobson on For Faith and Family
The March 22 For Faith and Family broadcast, included a talk with Dr. James Dobson about the hostile environment that the degrading generations have now place our Daughters in. "Perilous" is a term used by Dobson to describe the cultural and societal influences affecting girls today, whether by media or even by ourselves not pulling our heads out of the sand long enough to see what's going on. This talking of the subject is spot-on and if you have a daughter, have a granddaughter, simply CARE about someone's daughter you really should heed the warnings Dobson and the host bring out because if you open your eyes and look around as you go about life, you'll definitely see EXACTLY what they're talking about, and its pretty frightening for the sakes of girls growing up today.
What they say in this talk isn't sensationalism, but rather an eye opening observation of whats going on in everyday real life. Next time you walk in a mall, go to the grocery store, or go to church, intentionally take note of the fashions that the females you see being displayed (and that's just the tip of the iceberg of more serious issues).
Again, the link to the broadcast is here and a link to Dobson's new book that they reference (at amazon) is here.
Please listen to at least that portion of the broadcast (there are other speakers afterwords of interest too) and be intentional about seeking your own methods of influecing the girls in your life to understand the reasoning behind modesty; to understand their worth according to God; and to understand that what movies and pop culture say they isn't the Truth.

Mark Anderson is on Focus on the Family
Focus on the Family has a message by Mark Anderson, star marathon runner who allows insight into the turmoils of his life growing up. Even his birth was fairly shocking by most's standards. His mother was brought to a hospital because of a 6lb tumor that needed immediately removed from her mid-section. Upon removing the tumor the doctors discovered a 2lb child underneath, and though giving no odds of survival, he did survive and went on to become a successful track and field athlete, but not without enormous hurdles and struggles along the way.
Worth a listen.

Grace to You broadcast with John MacArthur - Wives Roles in the Bible
Grace to You broadcast with John MacArthur - Wives Roles in the Bible
In the 3/18/2011 broadcast of Grace to You with John MacArthur, he talks about the roles of wives as described in the Bible. Now before discounting such role identities as 'old fashioned' - consider how culture and society is today versus the "golden age" or "innocent age" when shows like The Andy Griffith Show
or Leave it to Beaver aired on TV rather than "Pretty Little Liars" and being obsessed with teenage looking vampires (yes I'm staring at you Ed, right in your sparkly face). So be open minded and consider the points as you listen to John:
Grace to You
The letter he reads from a working Mom is especially convicting and moving. The letter is towards the end around 8:39 or so (for some reason the video's counter counts down rather than up, so its at the 8 min 39 sec TIL end mark). Summarizing, she mentions her story, working from home ...out of seeming necessity, and how the Christian world around her stood silent and unmoving to offer any form of assistance whatsover. Shame on us for allowing someone praying and striving to find Jesus; and in us not finding Him at all.
I was convicted to be more watchful and keep my eyes and ears open to those around me that may well be hurting or in need of something even I can give. We all have the ability to perform miracles in the daily lives of those around us.
