This past week for Thanksgiving, my mom, sisters, and I went to New York City for a couple days. It was such a blast and is always so fun to see during Christmastime. This wasn't my first time there, but I am always surprised at how materialistic the city is in general. It is crazy how much money goes into the adds that are shown on the big screens on Times Square--they literally never shut off all night. It made me think of how media is such a large part of our modern day existence. Advertising for material things is so common and if we use our social media accounts to "advertise" for positive things such as the gospel or family, we can make a difference. It may be smaller of a difference than those ads at Times Square but it will be more important and lasting.
