Actor Kirk Cameron warns that Christian parents want their children to be trained to act as “soldiers of light,” and that they can’t stand it vaguely as cultures try to destroy faith-based values.
“Just press the reset button,” he told Christian Post in a recent interview.
Cameron, who appeared on the 1980s sitcom “Growing Pain” and became one of Hollywood’s most outspoken Christians, sees you in the library movement.

The movement began in December 2022 after more than 50 libraries told Cameron that he could not read his books.
Cameron has published several children’s books through brave books. As you grow, pride comes before autumn and the fear of foxes, fairs, inventions.
“So, what we’re going to see you in the library is just right for the boat,” Cameron said. “We don’t have to cross the waterfalls as a nation to destroy them. We don’t have to lose our children to a dark culture.”
The Christian actor and author pushed back after several libraries refused to host one of his reading events amid opposition from the liberals or attempted to cancel, many libraries finally admitted, allowing Cameron to hold the story for an hour.
Looking back on this experience, Cameron believes God reminds him that “doing the right thing is always worthwhile.” He said despite the opposition he faced from several libraries across the country, the actor said people still showed up at reading events with numbers that exceeded the library’s ability to attend.
“Do the right thing over the long term and you win,” said the Christian actor. “And to do that, understand that there is opposition. Of course there is a war over culture. There is a war over your children’s hearts and hearts. There is a world in which you should win.”
“And this is fighting training for the soldiers of light, and if children want to move to a land of promises, opportunities and blessings, we must model them what it means to be a fun warrior starting from the knees.
This year, the library movement is set to host a reading event at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. Details of the event are still organized. The actor said the movement aims to secure 500-storey time in all 50 states, with 50,000 people taking part.
According to Cameron, you spent 360 stories of time with tens of thousands of participants in the library movement last year.
One reason to meet you in the library movement is when you appeal to your parents and Cameron believes it represents an opportunity to regain the culture as a whole, rather than continuing to distinguish between faith. A simple yet meaningful way for parents to regain a culture is to read to their children, he said.
“And we need to remember that the other side is moving forward with their values every day,” Cameron warned. “They do it through social media, they do it through your school.”
“They do it through the movies, TV shows, comics that their kids watch. They do it through your teachers in your public school,” he added. “If we don’t show up, if we can’t replace the bad things with the good and stand up to the values we have now, we won’t have the freedom to live out them later.”
