Home Invasion: Protecting Your Family in a Culture That's Gone Stark Raving Mad

You Expect Your Home To Be A Safe Haven From The World-But Is It? The Internet. Television. Music. Subtle poisons taken in by your family every day. In Home Invasion,Rebecca Hagelin paints a startling portrait of how secular society-in particular, the media-has infiltrated even the most private areas of our lives. Discover how to arm yourself and your children with the weapons needed to fight this foe. It's a battle we can win! Hardcover.

Middle class moms and dads have long sought safety for their children in the nurturing haven of the cul-de-sac. Like a safe harbor at the edge of an angry sea, the suburban neighborhood is an environment of protection from the world and all its dangers. Or is it? In Home Invasion, Rebecca Hagelin proves that in today’s all-consuming culture of corruption there is nowhere left to hide-American homes have already been invaded by this insidious enemy that seeks to twist our minds and poison our hearts through the unmonitored Internet, television, magazines, and music that our families ingest on a daily basis. Speaking as a nationally known social commentator and as a mother of three, Hagelin shows through specific examples and alarming statistics how the enemy has infected the family van, our neighborhood schools and textbooks, the stores in which we shop, and even the churches in which we worship. With warm words of encouragement and practical suggestions, she coaches parents on how to arm themselves with information, strategically plan the movements of their family members, secure allies in the battle, and most of all, muster the guts and the resolve to lead their families to victory against the great beast.

I loved this book. I never earmark pages or underline things when I'm reading, but I must have earmarked 20 pages in this book, and I underlined many, many passages. I am going to read the entire book again, so I can really allow it to sink in. I told my husband to read it as well, and I plan on buying several more copies to give my friends and family. This is such an important topic - parenting wisely in this age of sexualization and instant gratification. I wish it were REQUIRED reading for ALL parents, especially for those with kids over 10. You will not be disappointed in this book.

Home Invasion opened my eyes to the pressures that are on my teenagers - and showed me that I need to parent with purpose. It is an amazing book and I hope Mrs.Hagelin writes another one soon. She really speaks to the issues of my heart and offers encouragement and practical help. You should visit her website at www.homeinvasion.org - Faye
