Event Description: Gain an understanding that our perception and attitudes towards love, sex and relationships are largely shaped by the media.

What to expect/topics covered: 

  • Understanding the influence that media has on individuals, especially young people.
  • Using discernment when engaging with the media.
  • Excess gaming can distort our view of reality and can negatively change how we relate with others.
  • Learning the harmful effects that Pornography has on the individual.
