    Responsible Consumption - How We View Read and Listen
    2024/11/04
    As believers we are moulded by what we listen to, view or read. What should we be watching, listening to or reading online or offline? Which authors, teachers or preachers are kosher? How do we discern which have solid theology or are self-help or motivational cloaked with Christian cliches. In this episode Mike D'Offay, Morne van der Walt and Dan Barnard, elders in the life of JoshGen, give us keys for learning to discern what is safe to consume and what should be wary of.
