There’s no such thing as “just a show.” Whether it’s Love Island, Game of Thrones, or your favorite rom-com, what we watch is shaping what we desire. The real question isn’t “can I handle it?” but “do I want to become someone who’s no longer bothered by what breaks God’s heart?”
In this episode, we’re unpacking one of the most common questions we get: Should Christians watch sex scenes?
We’ll cover:
- How to tell the difference between conviction and legalism
- Why “it doesn’t make me sin” isn’t the whole story
- What Scripture actually says about media, discernment, and transformation
- 5 powerful questions to ask before watching anything
- How to tell if you’re relaxing—or numbing out
If you’ve ever asked, “Is this really a big deal?”, or “Where’s the line between grace and compromise?”—this conversation is for you.
You’re being trained by what you’re entertained by. Let’s talk about what that means.
