The Xbox as God

XboxGod.jpg

A book written by Tyrone Short looks at the Xbox (the "X-Station" according to the book's title - The Bible vs. the X-Station taking over the role of the "deity" in the lives of the youth. The oh-so-attractive book description is after the jump. Make sure you're sitting down.

Thanks William

The Bible vs. The X-Station [Lulu]

"This book is mainly focused on kids, teens and young adults who have allowed the XBOX to become their god. In today's world when there are many school shootings by kids who have spent hours after hours playing video games and lacking in true friendships, a book such as this can be a blessing for some households. As wide as the XBOX market is, I believe that the appeal to this book should be as great. It can also be used by churches to reach youth groups, etc... to lead them into a right relationship with Jesus Christ. Contents: 1. What Makes a God? 2. What Happened to the Pac-Man Days? 3. A Child of God 4. What Does God Expect from Us? 5. The Choice"

At least now I can cross Ashcraft off of my shopping list!
