This week Coleen and Andrew discuss ethics for Christian podcasters.

Remember why you are podcasting

8 Finally, brothers, (1)whatever is true, (2)whatever is honorable, (3)whatever is just, (4)whatever is pure, (5)whatever is lovely, (6)whatever is commendable, (7)if there is any excellence, (8)if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. 9 What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you. (Php 4:8–9).
