Let's Talk Music

Hello everyone, I pray you are all doing well. A number of young people, as well as older, have often questioned the impact or acceptance of secular music into their Christian lifestyles. I am in the process of doing some research on this topic and with that I would like your feedback on the subject.The main question that I will be investigating is, "Is it alright for Followers of Christ to listen to secular music?" I don't mean hearing it every once in a while, I'm talking about consistently buying, downloading, listening to secular music. Are there exceptions? Under what circumstances is it acceptable? Any insight you may have on this topic would be greatly appreciated (thoughts, books, scriptures, articles, etc.)Thanks in advance for your help. I'll be sure to post my findings at the conclusion.
