Content plays a big role in society and our modern culture due to the rapid development and expansion of the internet, how we engage on it and how it is integrated in our everyday lives. We also still engage with content through traditional media, be that may, a large portion of the content we consume is found online.
The consumption of content has never been easier because we are able to access all kinds of things and gain information on anything at the click of a button thanks to smart devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops and digital music players.
Because of this, making an effort towards filtering the content that we are exposed to on a daily basis and being intentional about what we choose to feed our minds has never been more crucial.
When we are negligent and do not develop some form of discipline when it comes to our content intake, anything can occupy our minds, and repeated exposure will not only be received by our conscious minds, but it will also influence our subconscious mind which will have an impact on the way in which we behave as well shape our world view.
If we allow today’s culture to dictate how we ought to live our lives and let it act as our moral compass, we will always welcome things that appease the flesh but oppress the spirit. It is imperative that we recognize that even when it comes to how we vet whether content in today’s culture is right or wrong, that we hold it up against the word of God in order to discern well. God’s word is a timeless truth, transcending culture, tradition, religion and relational matters. It has, and will always be the highest authority regardless of the era in which we exist and it’s normality.
Let us become mindful about the kind of content we feed our minds and be intentional about establishing good, healthy and necessary boundaries when it comes to content consumption.
