Cultural Influences
Negative Cultural Influences on Youth
- Secular Education System: Schools and universities promote a worldview that removes God from the equation, leading young people to embrace moral relativism (no truth) and nihilism (no meaning in life).
- Social Media and Technology: Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube shape young minds with distorted views of success, identity, and self-worth, often increasing anxiety and depression.
- Entertainment Industry: Movies, music, and TV shows often glorify immorality, violence, and rebellion, influencing youth to adopt ungodly behaviors.
- Political Indoctrination: Many young people are taught socialist and progressive ideologies that undermine biblical values, replacing faith in God with faith in big government systems.
- Peer Pressure and Cancel Culture: Fear of social rejection causes youth to conform to the latest cultural trends rather than stand firm in their faith.
- Weak Church Engagement: Many churches fail to provide a strong countercultural message, leaving youth without spiritual guidance to navigate these influences.
