Episode notes
Social Media as Theological Issue
- Social media is a theological matter because humans are created in God's image as inherently social beings.
- This social nature makes our interaction on platforms a reflection of divine design and human vocation.
Heart and Accountability in Social Media
- Social media reflects our heart's condition, capable of building up or tearing down others.
- The local church provides essential accountability that social media lacks for spiritual formation.
Begin with Heart Examination
- Start your social media use by examining your heart and motives toward glorifying God.
- Without a transformed heart, following do's and don'ts on social media is futile.
