Gospel or Secular music: Drawn to the Lyrics, the Artist, or Something Deeper?

The 246 Podcast

In this episode, we dive headfirst into one of music’s most personal and polarizing questions: What truly moves us—gospel or secular? Is it the lyrics that speak to our soul, the artist’s identity and influence, or the deeper message behind the music?
We unpack the psychology behind why certain songs resonate more than others, explore the tension between spiritual conviction and musical preference, and ask: Does who sings the song matter more than what the song says?

From church choirs to chart-toppers, we challenge you to rethink how—and why—you choose the tracks that stay on repeat.
