I'm currently trying to incorporate God into some different aspects of my life. Nowadays, I spend more time on YouTube than anything else, and I'm curious if anyone here has any favorite Christian youtubers or content creators? I like Coryxkenshin, Christ Genesis, and SS Saved By Jesus. Thanks! :)

You are welcome. I like how these channels cover current events from a Christian perspective, such as the Olympics and the wars going on.

That's really interesting and insightful, I really like when channels incorporate their faith into current topics. Any certain videos from these channels that are your favorite?

Some favorites of mine if you want a perspective that thinks outside of the normal. They mostly concern themselves with political from a right leaning perspective which incorporates a Christian worldview.

The ones that have stars after their youtube channel names are ones I consider excellent if you want to learn the faith. I'll admit most of them are Catholic, that is my faith. Others are Orthodox. The rest are Protestant

Ones that have a C after the stars are Catholic
Ones that have an O after the stars are Orthodox
Ones that have a P after the stars are Protestant
And ones that don't have anything after the stars are unknown denominations

Hope these are informing to you .

I've watched Whaddo You Meme too. I'd also recommend!

I've also tried Unlearn the Lies, though I'm not sure if there are many shorter videos made nowadays, as there's a weekly live question and answer. Sometimes, though, the content in the weekly session will be made into another, shorter video. I'll have to check back to see what's been talked about there lately. What really drew me to that channel was the emphasis on interpreting Scripture with Scripture. Thumbs up! Also, it gives a Messianic Jewish perspective.

I am better at keeping up with Jonathan Cahn's videos. I haven't yet decided whether I learn better from his books or his videos, but he sees connections that are amazing! In a recent video, I was excited because I had seen one connection myself, which tells me I'm learning! I don't have the training that Cahn does as a rabbi, but reading the Bible regularly and understanding the Jewish context can reveal more than you spotted before!

Others to consider: Shabbat in Your Home from Paul Wilbur Ministries (good Friday evening teaching after the candle lighting and singing) plus Beth Israel Messianic Synagogue's Friday evening videos (Torah lessons that are very encouraging and include some challenge too).

I think that's all I have at the moment, but I'll come back if I think of more!

Thank you for these recommendations! I really appreciate the inclusion of denominations next to the channels. I've watched some these since reading your response, and I've really enjoyed them! Particularly Daily Dose of Wisdom, Expedition Bible, and Journeying with the Saints. It's so interesting to see the different perspectives and learn more about Christianity that I didn't know before.

Thank you so much for all the recommendations! I really love that you mentioned the emphasis on interpreting Scripture with Scripture. I feel like that makes things more grounded and consistent when it comes to reading the Bible. I've met people in the past who interpreted things differently, and saw different meanings in the text, some literal and some metaphorical. But I feel like using other parts of the Bible and cross-referencing verses gives a clearer understanding and keeps it true to the overall message. I also like that you mentioned some Jewish channels. I was raised non-denominational Christian, so learning more about different traditions and perspectives seems really interesting!

You are very welcome . Our Christian Faith is a unique blessing from our Lord God. I was never a good candidate for reading long books (except the Bible) and research papers so I relied on Christian Talk Shows, Christian Websites and Christian YouTube Channels to grow in my faith. I'm a big archeology fan so Expedition Bible, The Associates of Biblical Research and Michael Heiser connected the Bible to real life tangible things. I hope you may learn a lot and grow closer in faith to our Lord God.

The list @Hvizsgyak provided is very good and the Catholic and Orthodox channels are the ones I'd recommend.

A few additional recommendations:

The Transfigured Life (O)
Trisagion Films (O)
Intellectual Catholicism (C)
Truth Unites (P)
Dr. Jordan B. Cooper (P)
Orthodox Christian Theology (O)
David Erhan (O)
Raymond Vincent ThM (O)
Gospel Simplicity (P)

People who aren't youtubers but who are frequently guests on various channels:

Fr. John Whiteford (O) (he does have his own channel but barely posts on it)
Fr. Patrick Ramsey (O)

For something that falls within the essentially mainstream of conservative Christianity, I semi-regularly check out Sean McDowell and Whaddo You Meme?.

Does this mean I agree with their specific evangelical angle? Not on all counts, I don't, but their views can be catalytic.
