The Only Like That Matters Is God's: Using the Bible to Transform Your Life on Social Media

Does consuming the scroll leave you feeling empty? Escape the shackles of social media and turn to Christ to set you free.

By using the Bible as your handbook, you can glorify God through how you present yourself, consume, and operate on social media, regardless of your social media status. Former sports broadcaster Teryn Gregson, who faced public persecution for her faith, approaches the hard to discuss depths of the cultural lies perpetuated on social media. By studying, through scripture, how God delivered the Israelites when they fell into the trap of comparison, or how Jesus overcame cancel culture by rising from the dead three days later, we too can learn to defeat that which consumes us, with the help of the Holy Spirit. By facing, head-on, promiscuity masked as Instagram modeling and what it looks like to truly lay it all on the line for your faith, aside from the picture-perfect profiles online, we can transform our lives on social media when we find joy in truly knowing the only "like" that matters is God's. Just as the Bible calls us to be different than the world, you too can establish a clear difference between the way the world uses social media, and the way you would like to. By opening our eyes to see Jesus as the Ultimate Influencer, we can, instead of being socially influenced, become Soulful Influencers.
