The Christian and Objectionable Content in Movies: Why the MPAA is Not Your Friend
Who decides what makes a movie PG-13 or R? And can Christians rely on those ratings to guide their viewing choices?
Explore the surprising history of the relationship between the church and Hollywood, how the movie rating system came to be, and why it may not tell us everything we need to know. Dr. Matthew Millsap will challenge us to think critically about the content we watch and how we approach entertainment as Christians
This event is open to all and counts as a chapel attendance for students!
