Synopsis

Social media was made to bring us together. But few things have driven us further apart. Sadly, many Christians are fueling online incivility. Others, exhausted by perpetual outrage and shame-filled from constant comparison, are leaving social media altogether. So, how should Christians behave in this digital age? Is there a better way? Daniel Darling believes we need an approach that applies biblical wisdom to our engagement with social media, an approach that neither retreats from modern technology nor ignores the harmful ways in which Christians often engage publicly. In short, he believes that we can and should use our online conversations for good.

Goodreads review by Tim on September 14, 2020

This is one of the best books to read in what we have been through in 2020. Unbelievably this was written before all the racial tensions and pandemic life started, but it feels written perfectly to deal with the issues at hand. This work is basically a theology of words and pictures we post online.......more

The reminder that even our tweets, post, and typed conversations can be used to build up or tear down. It is a very practical read and I appreciate Daniel's much needed wisdom on the topic.......more
