Many Christian women have what they call their “guilty pleasures.” Is there anything wrong with these things?

Talking Points:

  • We have a lot of choices for entertainment and we need to be careful what we choose. Philippians 4:8
  • Take an honest look at your entertainment choices and ask yourself if it encourages you in your faith journey or not. John 10:10
  • Your first priority should be to honor God so avoid things that clearly promote things that stand against God’s word.

  4. Read Philippians 4:8. When making your entertainment choices, how do you decide if something is or isn’t appropriate?
  5. Read John 10:10. Identify where our culture is promoting something that stands against a biblical worldview. How can you stand up for God in those areas? 
  6. What are some of the values you want to model and instill in your kids? What will you start doing to model the right things? What will you stop doing in order to model the right things?
