This takes people away from family, friends, and time in God’s Word. On the negative side for the Christian, many people become addicted to television viewing or mindlessly sucked in to whatever show may be on at the moment. From a Christian standpoint, TV has been used to share the gospel to virtually every nation on earth (Matthew 28:19), and countless lives have been changed through Christian television broadcasts. News and weather reports have saved countless lives, and we have access to entertainment, sports, and information that can be helpful and uplifting. On the plus side for the Christian, television can be a wonderful educational tool. Many Christians struggle with the issue of whether or not to watch television and, if we do watch, how much TV should we watch? Television, like many other diversions we have in today’s society, has the ability to do both great good and great harm.
