Can I Love God And Enjoy Secular Media?
Our minds are constantly flooded with all kinds of media - movies, YouTube videos, books, messages from friends, and more. But, is it actually good for us to take all of this in, especially when the content we're consuming isn't inherently God-honoring?
In episode 5 of the You Asked For It podcast, we're joined by Ryan Garrett and Mari Marley to discuss whether or not it's okay for Christians to consume and enjoy secular media? You'll hear the discussion range from music and movies, video filtering software, and how our conscience plays a role in how we approach this question.
There's definitely more that we can talk about, but we hope this is a helpful launching pad!

In our culture, students have more access than ever before to meaningless content filled with lies.
