“The art of critical thinking has been lost.” 
This evaluation by Ravi Zacharias is both 
insightful and true. On average,

2
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:24,800
we’re bombarded by 54,000 words and 443 minutes 
of video on a daily basis. This overload 
of information has

3
00:00:24,900 --> 00:00:33,900
muted our ability to think critically about 
the information we receive—yet critical thinking 
is exactly what we need to be successful.

4
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:42,200
That’s why I want to encourage parents, in 
particular, to teach your children how to 
think. Teach them how to identify right and 
wrong—

5
00:00:42,300 --> 00:00:48,300
so they know how to handle conflict in relationships, 
tests of character, and moral dilemmas.

6
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:57,400
If our children and youth can learn how to 
think critically, they can help steer our 
country in the right direction. I’m Mac Hammond,
