Ep. 13 - It’s Like In the Great Tales, Mr. Frodo: Secular Media as Christians
Join us in this lively discussion as we cover the topic of secular media consumed as Christians. After touching on the definition of "secular" we discuss some of our favorite examples, taking a deep dive into literature and story in particular. We'll be specifically fleshing out the Christian themes of Harry Potter and other fantastical tales, considering discernment and other factors that may determine what one finds edifying. But listener, beware--Spoilers ensue!Links and Mentions:We'll link the article by Wendy Braun here: Books:Harry Potter Series by J.K. RowlingThe Chronicles of Narnia C.S.
