We need to find a way to be careful about walking the line between being transparent and being misunderstood. It takes seconds to post an update but much longer to embrace the consequences and repercussions of those few seconds and few words we transmitted across the Internet in a moment of poor judgment.

In every space where people are talking, the glory of God should be evident. His light should be shined into the darkest corners of society. It stands to reason that if the role of Twitter and other social networks is to empower everyday people with a voice, then we should certainly take advantage of the opportunity to use that voice to point

While Adam and Eve were hiding, God was approaching, seeking, and searching. While humanity drew back from its Creator, He put on human flesh and invaded the world in the form of His Son, Jesus, to seek and save that which was lost. God is all about the business of reconciliation.

the church was once a community of early adopters, jumping on the bandwagon to use technologies such as radio and television for good effect, but it has since camped out in skepticism about the waves of technological advances in the present social age.

the mission of redeeming a lost culture for God’s glory matters far more than pleasing people or providing a safe and comfortable home for the frozen chosen.

Paul said, “Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of evil behavior. Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you” (Eph. 4:31–32).
