How do you view Christians watching movies with profane language in it? Some argue that we should avoid engaging with culture. Others argue that we should exercise liberty. How should we think about such movies?
Question
Here’s the question I was asked:
How do you view Christians watching movies with profane language in it including using our Lord’s name in vain? This is something that my husband and I really struggle with as we feel like the odd ones out. How is it that a lot of Christians don’t have a problem watching it? Is there something we are missing and don’t see?

Do you have a question you would like answered?
From time to time people ask me questions related to the subjects I write about. Many of these questions are questions from the experiences we all have as Christians living in a fallen world. So, I create a video with my response and then post the video for others to benefit from.
