Facebook

I’ve spent the last several days preparing a Powerpoint with extensive video and image illustrations for high school students. The hope is to get them to install an internal media filter that will stay in place whether they are watching TV or YouTube, Twittering or uploading photos to their Facebooks, playing video games, or texting on their phones. We are called to glorify God in everything we do (1 Cor. 10:31), and that certainly extends to processing media messages.

Since I joined FB a few months ago, my prophecies have become self-fulfilling. I HAVE spent a lot of time getting reacquainted with old classmates, childhood friends, and summer camp pals. FB  has enabled me to spread the word about my new book, articles I’ve written, and general ministry happenings in my life. I’ve also had a little too much fun exchanging quips, jokes, and “LOL” with current buddies whom I see weekly or better.
