ROAR’ing Through Stranger Things

Alexa Cramer, Apologetics, Christianity, discernment Categories: Theology and Christian Apologetics, Gospel, MamaBearApologetics.org, ROAR method, Stranger Things, Theology and Christian Apologetics
[Editor’s Note: This blog reviews the entire Stranger Things series. Spoilers ahead.] The ashes are still settling from the death of the Stranger Things hype following the colossal disappointment of an ending. And yet, the series will live on and continue to grow in fandom (especially as its spinoffs are released). Yeah, the ending was bad, but overall, the show excels in its storytelling and unique characters. It is rich with themes and messaging, so in this blog, we will focus on just a few prominent messages that run through the entire series. This is not going to be a ROAR for your young ones, mama bears. This one’s for your teens and up. (But only for families who choose to watch. Viewer discretion is very much advised; the show…

How The Multiverse Theory Could Challenge Your Child’s Faith

2. Does God Exist?, Alexa Cramer, Cosmological Argument, does God exist?, First Cause, MamaBearApologetics.com, multiverse, physics, universe
What comes to mind when you hear the word “multiverse”? Do you (a) cringe, (b) hink of your kid’s favorite Marvel movie, or (c) do you cock your head like a confused (but very cute) puppy? In case you chose “c,” the term “multiverse” refers to a theory that we live in one of many (potentially even an infinite number) of universes. It makes for MARVELous movies (see what I did there?). But what happens when this theory makes its way into the minds of our kiddos as a plausible explanation of reality? Can this affect their view of God? How a “Multiverse” Replaces God         The mainstream scientific consensus is that the universe as we know it had an ultimate beginning at “The Big Bang.” This is a massive problem…

ROARing Through the Wicked Film

Alexa Cramer, cultural apologetics, entertainment, ethics, Hillary Ferrer, media, Musicals, Uncategorized, Wicked, Worldview, www.mamabearapologetics.com
*Spoilers for the film Wicked (2024) ahead. Stop reading if you don’t want to know what happens in the film. Also, this is about the film, not about the book by Gregory Maguire or the Broadway musical.* A lot of opinions are circling the interwebs as to whether Christians should see the film, Wicked. While there are definitely certain unredeemable media that we here at Mama Bear Apologetics feel totally comfortable giving a black-and-white “NO” to (*cough* Fifty Shades *cough*), most of the time we just try to give you some things to think through and leave it up to you and the Holy Spirit. That’s where we’re at with Wicked. It’s not for everybody, particularly those who themselves (or their kids) are sensitive to themes containing witchcraft. For instance, there is a scene towards the end of…

Humbly He Came

4. Is the NT True?, Alexa Cramer, Apologetics, Baby Jesus, Christianity, Gospel, humility, MamaBearApologetics, MamaBearApologetics.com, Nativity
There are a lot of things that are true but are hard to believe, but the fact that the Creator of our universe has pooped in a diaper is a big one. I mean, really think about that. And if your first reaction is to think that the opening line of this post sounds crass (which is a natural reaction given Who we are talking about), you are only reinforcing the point I’m about to make: Our all-powerful almighty God entered into this broken and dangerous world as a helpless baby. The One we worship above all else fed at His mother’s breasts and, yes, even pooped in His diaper. Although the song “Away in a Manger” suggests our Savior didn’t cry, I just don’t buy it. He was fully…

Is AI Dangerous? (Part 2)

Alexa Cramer, Apologetics, Artificial Intelligence, Christianity, cultural apologetics, Culture and Politics, Gospel, MamaBearApologetics.com, Science and Technology, Techie
In Part 1, we may have virtually scared the pants off our readers with our semi-dystopian view of the future. But everything’s going to be okay, mama. You’re fine. I’m fine. Everything’s FINE! No, really, we’re all fine. Let me ask you something: can you give me an example of any time the future wasn’t scary? I doubt it. On this side of heaven, the future will always be uncertain. So, what we can do is cling to that which we are certain of – absolute truth. And that truth is found in a person: Jesus. Seek truth, and you’ll find Christ and His promises. Seek Christ, and you’ll find truth and clarity. Consequently, it’s no surprise that God’s number one enemy is working relentlessly to distort our view of truth. Because that’s ALL…
