For Parents

childs hands

This Winter we have two great opportunities for every parent at Calvary.  First, Pastor Clark and I will be teaching a two week class addressing issues surrounding parents and their kids use of technology.  We find stats such as the average child is first exposed to pornography on the internet at the age of 12 staggering, and we want to do something about them.  So, we are going to teach this class for parents addressing issues such as how to filter content on the internet, monitor their kids on Facebook, Twitter, cell phones, the whole gamut. We’ll also be sure to leave some time at the end of each class for parents to ask any questions they like on the topic.  The class is scheduled for January 23rd and 30th at 10:15. Location TBA.

Then on February 5th Calvary is hosting a Home Improvement Ministries conference entitled “Sacred Parenting in a Not So Sacred World.” Gary Thomas is the guest speaker so it guaranteed to be a worthwhile day.  Here is a brief write-up on the conference…

In a world that is less than “sacred,” we as parents are often at a loss on how to raise kids who honor God, their parents and others.  We’re looking for easy steps to “new kids” when we may do better to look first at our own lives.  Gary Thomas, author of Sacred Marriage and Sacred Parenting, helps us understand “How Raising Children Shapes Our Souls.”  In addition to Gary Thomas’ three plenary sessions, practical workshops will round out this incredibly important day.

You can find out more about the conference by checking out this site.

If you’re a parent be sure not to miss out on these two great opportunities.

    Dark Web Explained: Meaning and Access
    What the Dark Web Means

    The dark web is a non-public part of the internet that is not reachable through regular browsers. When users search for what is dark web or dark web meaning, they usually refer to anonymous online networks that require special software and apply cryptographic methods to protect user identities. Most dark web sites operate on the .onion domain.

    Unlike the regular web, the dark web is not indexed by Google or traditional search engines.

    How to Get on the Dark Web

    To understand how to get on dark web, users need a dedicated dark web browser.

    The most common option is the Tor Browser:

    Available via Tor Browser download for Windows, macOS and Linux systems

    Additionally available as the Android version of Tor Browser

    Routes traffic through multiple encrypted relays (onion routing)

    For users on iOS devices, Onion Browser is commonly used.

    To browse the dark web safely, users often combine Tor with basic security practices and avoid sharing personal information.

    Dark Web Search Engines and Links

    Since Google does not list the dark web, users rely on a dark web search engine such as:

    Ahmia search

    Torch dark web

    Onion search

    DuckDuckGo dark web (via Tor)

    Indexes like the Hidden Wiki directory provide collections of dark web links, but a significant number of links are outdated or unsafe.

    Dark Web Marketplaces and Risks

    Darknet marketplaces are known for anonymous transactions, often using digital currencies. The best-known example is the Silk Road marketplace, which was shut down by law enforcement.

    Topics like illegal goods and fraud have led to greater scrutiny from authorities. Many markets are fraudulent or temporary.

    Dark Web Monitoring and Data Leaks

    Users often ask whether their information is on the dark web. This has led to dark web monitoring, dark web scanning, and dark web check services. These tools look for exposed emails, passwords, and financial information and may send a dark web alert if exposure is found.

    Conclusion

    The dark web is not entirely illegal, but it involves significant risks. Dark web websites are used both for anonymous communication and for illegal activities. Anyone exploring the dark web should understand the technology, legal boundaries, and security implications before proceeding.
