Ellen's comments from the Christian Readers group.

Thank you for making the point that not reading these books is what works for YOU. I personally don't see anything wrong with Christians reading books like the Harry Potter or Twilight series. They're entertaining stories, and HP is clearly about the battles between good and evil -- and that good is what wins in the end. I think they're delightful stories, and I plan on sharing them with my future children.
One of the important things for us as Christians is knowing what is the truth and what isn't. As long as we read God's word and know that it is the truth, there is nothing wrong with reading books and watching movies that are secular. After all, it is God who gave these writers and actors their amazing talent! I'm sure he is all for us celebrating and supporting them (but just not putting them above Him)!

Lyn,

I love your answer! It's very wise :)

God bless,
Ellen
