Peterson, Rogan, and Beck, Oh my!

Episode 90 - 

In today's "influencer age", podcast personalities and pundits abound.  Some of them reach meteoric status with followers in the millions.  Their voices and opinions, therefore, have a great influence.  As consumers of these kinds influencers, it can be difficult to take in their content with a critical ear.  That fact becomes all the more salient when Christians are listening to non-Christians.

Ben sets his sights on the wizardry of some popular personas as the lead for this episode, while Chad fearlessly follows down Ben's yellow brick road to levelheaded listening.  The two traverse some tricky terrain in hopes of peeking behind the curtain of the influencer's mysterious power.   Should a Christian take in content that comes from someone who doesn't profess Christ?  If we are seeking to gain knowledge from those who don't share our most deeply held beliefs, what's the best approach to doing so?  And does the label 'Christian' automatically guarantee the transfer of trustworthy perspectives?
