Helping people is not all that is involved with true religion.

Polluted

The book of James says more about this.

Polluted

Many are aware of James 1:27 which speaks of looking after orphans and widows as being true religion. You don’t often hear people quoting the last part of that verse which also commands us to keep ourselves from being polluted by the world. Have we already become polluted by the world simply through what we are regularly entertained by? These things will affect your attitude, behaviors, and value systems.

If we are dazzled and frazzled by our children’s attitudes, behaviors, and value systems we would do well to examine their entertainment habits and ask if it glorifies God. However, if your child owns their own smartphone this would be like playing a perpetual game of whack-a-mole.

Shepherds Hill Academy: Transforming Lives, Transforming Culture

Endorsements

"When I met the kids (at SHA), and saw the glow of transformation on their faces, it spoke to me that Shepherd's Hill Academy was more than 'Just what the doctor ordered.' It is a holistic, spiritual and therapeutic approach to healing that provides an atmosphere for learning and a proving ground for the uncompromising time-tested truths of scripture." - John Rosemond, American Columnist
Trace Embry on WFAX
"It is such a wonderful, God inspired thing you have done to help all of these children. I think people would love to read your book and learn more. You have helped changed so many lives, people will want to realize & learn about the work you are doing. It is so important." - Doris Newcomb, WFAX
