What Would Paul Say About Social Media? Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times
In this episode of Daily Bible Refresh, Dr. Brad Miller delivers a progressive exploration of 2 Timothy 3:1-9, reflecting on the challenges of our times through the lens of scripture. He addresses issues of misinformation in the digital age, the importance of protecting vulnerable groups, and the distinction between genuine faith and superficial displays. As always, Dr. Miller offers practical steps for listeners seeking clarity amidst the noise, while encouraging authentic expressions of faith and community.
Takeaways:
- Discernment in the digital age is critical: Listeners are encouraged to be mindful of misinformation and smooth talkers who may exploit vulnerabilities online.
- Protecting the vulnerable is a moral imperative, with parallels drawn between biblical teachings and current conversations about justice and equality.
- Authentic faith differs from performance; genuine faith thrives in love, justice, and community care, not just outward displays.
- Conducting regular audits of one’s social media and news consumption can help ensure that followed voices promote care and justice rather than fear and exploitation.
