My expectations from any music I'm listening to I try to channel to the positive aspect of it. be it secular or any other category. The sound pattern and message a song is carrying so far are some other important qualities I always look at when consuming or listening to music.

Secular music sometimes could have a lot of negative effect in the spiritual life because of the behavior exhibition by most of the musicians/artists. Most of our young generation not only listen to music. sometimes you find most of this youths trying to idolize some of this artist they listen to and most of this artists they try to idolize don't do not really portray a lifestyle that allows the spiritual life shine.
It is important to know what you want else you find yourself accepting everything that comes your way which is not healthy to the human life. Your Spiritual life is meant to be a portal of connection to your God, allowing music deviate you from that connection signifies a lack of quality relationship with God. In other sense if it happens listening to Secular music is a necessity one most be conscious of the type of information you use gotten from either the song or the presenter.
So far I haven't gotten reason to believe the music I listen to has any negative effect on my spirituality and I will say I have really contribute massively in ensuring what I see or listen doesn't control me
My spiritual journey has been a more private type. I keep most of my life activities with myself aside from the fact I allow God take charge over everything, most time I keep a inside connection with him because I feel is more stronger and condul no distractions. The songs I listen to has to blend with my perspective to life and my perspective I believe is one that leads to the aspect of truth.
Thanks to everyone for having me and I'm glad to be a part of this interesting interaction. 🫂
