Walt Disney was a man of faith. But 100 years on, how should Christians view his legacy?

Walt Disney attributed his success to a daily habit of prayer. But now, as Disney celebrates 100 years of family fun, Christians are divided on the merits of the entertainment giant. Is it still the home of good, clean entertainment or should we be suspicious of its political stances?

As The Walt Disney Company celebrates its 100th year in business, there may be no more appropriate word to sum up the multimedia mega-brand and its influence. Its grasp on culture, and particularly on the hearts and minds of children and young people the world over, is unprecedented. From movies to TV shows (and channels), toys and video games to theme parks, Disney isn’t just the biggest player in media; it’s now the Goliath that turns every other contender into a David. Like Alexander the Great, Disney’s executives must sometimes weep that they have no worlds left to conquer.
