Here at Use Your Words - we are two friends that decided to create a podcast for Bible believing Christians that care about news and culture. While not every week will focus on current news and/or culture - we will continually focus on the single thread through everything - our faith in Christ. We each have different passions and bring those passions to the forefront - music, faith, mental health, politics, news, worldview, and how all these things tie together. Join us as we learn, grow, and continue to become better each week. Interact with us on our social media accounts or email (uywords@gmail.com). Disagree - but be polite and Use Your Words.

This week - we are joined by the monkey of chaos himself - and talk about why news in 2024 is just plain bad - and how we as a collective whole have great big blind spots in how we view our news on a daily basis. And what can we do to maybe correct some of these blind spots?
