What’s on Netflix?

Netflix has quickly become America’s movie and media outlet of choice. 38 million households subscribe to satellite television. 48 million households pay for cable. 60 million American households subscribe to Netflix. Currently offering more than 5,500 titles for streaming, Netflix is a massive media source available at your fingertips.

Have you ever stopped to ask, what am I watching? I’m not talking about asking that question from the perspective of whether or not you like the show; as in what would you recommend to a friend. I’m talking about questioning what we watch from the perspective of content. Do you realize that Netflix is not simply a massive media source, but if you subscribe to Netflix, or have a television in your house for that matter, that what is on that screen is the largest library of worldview content in your home.

In this message I evaluate several of the most popular shows on Netflix for their worldview content. Pop culture is full of post-modern and secular themes. What are they? How can we be discerning, but at the same time have a helpful dialogue with our culture? These questions and more are answered in this concluding message to our culture series at Liberty, Brainwashed.

What is Truth?

In one generation moral wrongs have become political rights. How does it happen? The answer is very simple. If you can slide the standard of truth, then you can blur the lines of morality. What is truth?

America is embracing secularism as the prevalent worldview. In secularism, truth is relative. Right and wrong depends on the individual and the situation. But does this worldview really work?

In this message I compare secularisms idea of relative truth to the Biblical worldview and absolute truth. Which is a better way to live?

A World Without God

The movie Yesterday poses an interesting premise. What if the world forgot The Beatles?

If you like the music of The Beatles I think you will find the film entertaining. Personally, I think there could have been so much more done with the plot, but I enjoyed it.

But what if the world didn’t just forget about a music group? What if the world forgot about God? Imagine what the world would be like if there was no belief or no concept of God in the mind of man.

The question of God is the first question of any worldview. The answer to that question makes every other decision. In this message I share four critical implications to denying there is a God. If you don’t believe in God you must:

  • Have ultimate faith that science can answer all of your questions.
  • Have ultimate faith that people will eventually make all the right decisions.
  • Have ultimate faith that government will solve all of our problems.
  • Have ultimate faith in yourself that you will find the purpose for your life.

Captured By Culture

Have you noticed a rise in incivility in our society? Why are so many people becoming favorable to socialism? How is it that a grown man can leave his family, identify as a 6-year-old girl, and be adopted? It all comes down to your worldview.

In this opening message of a critical new culture series I am sharing at Liberty, I reveal two conflicting worldviews that are prevalent in our culture. What is a worldview? What is your worldview? How do you protect yourself and your children from being taken as mental captives of a misguided culture?
