Is Naked Art a Sin? What Christians Need to Know

Can Christians look at nude art without sinning? What’s the difference between nudity in classical art and pornography? In this episode of Rooted & Reason, Mikey and Ryan dive into a raw, honest, and biblically rooted conversation that challenges how believers view nudity in art, intention, purity, and holiness.

We explore real-world scenarios, powerful thought experiments, and scripture-backed insights—asking tough questions like:

* Is it ever appropriate to display or view art that features nudity?
* Does intention matter—or is it about how we guard our heart?
* What does a Spirit-led life really look like when it comes to purity?
* Is the human body inherently shameful, or is misuse the real problem?

We also reflect on parenting, discipleship, and how to navigate a hyper-sexualized culture while remaining anchored in God’s truth.

This one’s bold. It’s thoughtful. And it’s one you don’t want to miss.
