Write You - America's TV Addiction: It's a Matter of Time, a lot of time
This is the time of year as we enjoy the Christmas season, we celebrate the birth of our Savior, but we mustn’t loose sight of the reason for His coming. He came to restore mankind to the Father. He came to destroy the works of the devil. He came to give life, and give it more abundantly. He came to give us eternal life. He came to forgive us our debts. 1Jn:3:8,
Debt settlement is very similar to Consumer Proposal in Canada.

4 hours 32 minutes per day.
4 hours 32 minutes EVERY day.
4 hours 32 minutes EVERY day for 365 days per year.
Let’s add that up. Maybe 4 hours and 32 minutes does not seem like that much time at first. However, per week that adds up to 31 hours 44 min. That is 31 hours 44 min. EVERY week. For adults, that is starting to get close to a full time job. For children, that also means they are being educated by their TV sets more than they are being educated at school.
Per month that adds up to 136 hours, or 5 days 16 hours. The average American spends five and 2/3 solid days every month watching TV.
Are these numbers starting to look a little alarming yet?
Let’s look at the time one average American spends watching TV every year. 365 days at 4 hours 32 minutes every day adds up to 1,655.8 hours every year. That is 69 days, or over two solid months every year. Over a lifetime of 72 years, that adds up to over 13 years. That is a lot of time, and that is just for one pe

Q: I started my small business about a year ago and it's grown steadily. I like having my own business, but I'm having a tough time managing people. I have 5 employees now and it seems like I spend half my time making sure they are doing what they're supposed to be doing and the other half of my time doing things they didn't get done. Things were much easier when I was a one

He said something like "I haven't been sowing anywhere lately" and that my ministry was as valid as any.

Forget all the studies that link excessive TV watching to the obesity epidemic. Forget the studies that link excessive TV watching to ADHD symptoms and other attention problems. Forget about all the problems with violent content and the 18,000 TV murders that kids witness before they turn 18. Forget about the sexual content and the fact that sexual references on TV have doubled over the past 8 years.
