What Would Jesus Do on Social Media

What Would Jesus Do On Social Media?

This class includes 30 Bible study lessons with Bible journal ideas. In each lesson we will examine Bible passages to see how Jesus would respond on social media. After all, it is interacting with people–it is real-life–people's feelings can be hurt. In some networks, we might be the only Christian a person ever interacts with. Our words can encourage or discourage others.

Social media has become part of our daily lives. These networks have opened new possibilities for devising and learning new information, sharing ideas and connecting with others. This has changed the way people interact and carry on with their everyday lives. We can join groups of other like-minded people.

Some warn Christian to stay away from social media. I don't agree. To turn away completely would be similar to telling people not to use a phone or television when they became available. New things are not evil. Social media, TV, and phone are all tools like a hammer is a tool. It can be used to help build a house or to commit murder.

With new possibilities come new potential problems. It is easy to get too involved with social media and neglect family responsibilities. It seems easier to get into arguments to say the wrong thing because you are not conversing fact to face. Some Christians are sweet and kind at church, but once they tap that Facebook app they transform into angry political activists.
