Summary

In today's episode with my guest, Paul and Morgan Olliges, we are jumping into all things Taylor Swift, Doja Cat, and the dangers of secular music as a Christian.

As followers of Christ, we're called to use wisdom and discern all aspects of our lives, including the the music we listen to and shows we watch. It's called entertainment for a reason -- something is entering your mind, body, and life. Today we are jumping in to explore the complexities, challenges, and dangers of engaging with secular music while walking with the Lord.

Discernment: Is it possible for Christians to enjoy secular music without compromising their faith? How can we approach secular music with discernment and wisdom?
Personal Testimonies: Our guests will share their personal experiences with secular music and how it has impacted their faith journeys.
Content Analysis: What messages are portrayed and prevalent in secular songs? How do they align with, or deviate from, Christian roots and beliefs?
