Aside from the obvious answer, Shaiann and Austin seek to tackle this topic one step at a time by breaking down the recent movie release, "Jesus Revolution". From Jonathan Roumie's faith to separating the creator from the product, this episode promises to be a fantastic new look at Christian media.

Today's episode is a live recording from a show we did for our campus radio station! We are huge fans of How To Train Your Dragon, but we decided to save this episode for this special live premiere when we got to talk about everything we loved in front of a large group of people all enjoying free drinks and snacks. As we discuss things like the disabled and how we should represent other cultures and people groups, how do we also tie that in with our own church communities?

Shaiann is a particularly massive fan of Owl City. Her excitement for this topic was one that we couldn't leave in the dust. Owl City is just one of many artists who declare Christianity, yet are immersed in a world that is seemingly always out to get them. Join us this week as we cover the incredibly complicated topic of Christian artists who are in a non-Christian pop music industry.

We all enjoy a good old classic Disney movie, but how much does Disney really control? Does the amount they control mean anything dangerous for the world that Christians inhabit? How do we safely navigate a world that is effectively controlled by itself? Answers and discussion to come on today's episode!

Today we're joined by Ellul's Cafe host and Moody Bible Institute professor, Jeremy Pettitt, to discuss technology, communication, and community. We're constantly immersed in the world of technology to the degree that it starts to seem as if it's controlling us, so how do we get a hold of our lives away from technology? How immersed should a Christian be? Is there a way to live in this world without letting it live in us? Answers to these questions and more on today's episode!

In our time here at the Moody Bible Institute, we've gotten opportunities to see many creators and various forms of talents come through the doors, all representing Christ and fully empowered to do what they do best. One of the controversial pieces that circulated around the campus in early 2020 was that of I Am Jesus Christ, a video game allowing players to live as Jesus did, perform miracles, and reenact the gospel story through interactive media, all on the Unreal Engine 5. Is this a line that is being crossed? We answer that question in our extremely tired state in this episode of Collateral Creatives!

Many of our listeners likely grew up on YouTube and know of all the terrible content that exists on the platform that definitely wouldn't fit for our Christian eyes and ears. With that pool of content we shouldn't access though, perhaps there is an untapped pool that we could approach with caution (and, of course, discernment) so that we can see new parts of culture and the world around us without putting ourselves in the sights of sin. Join us as we work our way through YouTube creators and content!

A silly question, we know, but it's so very important to us to understand the meaning behind moderation and properly using discernment to understand what is truly "good" for one to ingest in the world of media content. Join us as we explore this fun show and complicated topic!
