The Social Christian: A Theological Exploration of Social Media

$10.00 – $30.00

This book is aimed at answering the questions of social media’s purpose, proper use, and the possibility for redemption. In fact, I wrote this book based on a class I taught at my church. I decided to teach the class after observing so much negative, unChristian, and flat out uncivilized behavior on social media. I plan on re-teaching this course every year or two because I have now realized social media is just as valid and important area of our lives as anything else, so if we’re going to offer support for marriages for parenting, for budgeting, we’re going to also have to address social media.

If you want to increase your reach by 10,000 followers, don’t buy this book. If you want to learn and teach other Christians to think more deeply about how they engage with social media, then maybe you should buy this book.

Description

Social media has been primarily designed for communication of varying depths, so the question we have to ask ourselves is what are we communicating about ourselves and about God when we use it. Furthermore, we must ask ourselves what our goal is with social media: are we trying to make ourselves or God known? What is the ultimate source of our posts, tweets, updates, etc.? Is it our selfish, sinful nature? Or is it the Spirit of God within us?

This book is aimed at answering the questions of social media’s purpose, proper use, and the possibility for redemption. In fact, I wrote this book based on a class I taught at my church. I decided to teach the class after observing so much negative, unChristian, and flat out uncivilized behavior on social media. I plan on re-teaching this course every year or two because I have now realized social media is just as valid and important area of our lives as anything else, so if we’re going to offer support for marriages for parenting, for budgeting, we’re going to also have to address social media.

That’s what’s at the core of this book: a pastor’s desire to educate, edify, inspire, and, yes, rebuke, where needed. This isn’t a strategy guide or a social media walkthrough. It’s a jump into the deeper (or at less not quite shallow) waters of theological and philosophy as they connect to our overly connected world of social media.

So, if you want to increase your reach by 10,000 followers, don’t buy this book. If you want to learn and teach other Christians to think more deeply about how they engage with social media, then maybe you should buy this book.
