Bob's Burgers

Anyone watch this? It's hilarious!!
We keep up with it on Netflix.
back when I first became a Christian, I watched family guy until an episode came on where a girl basically eluded to being sexually abused by her dad and they made a joke about it. That made me super uncomfortable. I prayed about it and God gave me the verse that said you are the salt of the earth. But I knew it was my choice. In the end I ended up giving up family guy even though I loved it. Then bobs burgers came about and my husband and I loved it. I didn't seem to care that there were a lot of inappropriate things such as drag queens, Bob getting drunk and going out to be a cab driver for drag prostitutes? And an episode where Linda gets into selling sex toys. There's a lot of adult material. It's really witty and funny and has some wholesome moments, so I overlooked all that stuff. We got rid of Hulu for a while and weren't able to watch it for a while. But I recently had the ability to get bobs burgers again and I was excited at first. But all week I kept getting that verse brought up in different places about being the salt of the earth. I finally figured out that God was warning me about not watching this show again. Not only would I be potentially numbing myself to things that God cares about, but I would be subjecting my kids to things they don't understand and may become curious about. all it all, though it has its moments, it does not glorify God. As I have grown deeper in my walk with him, the callouses have been removed and I'm softer to God's voice trying to steer me in the right direction. So I would say what I felt God told me as a believer: "You are the salt of the earth...but it's your choice."
