How to Leverage Social Media for Good

There are many ways to misuse social media for good. It is so easy spread information that is incomplete, to join a nasty mob taking down someone or to engage in unproductive arguments. Too often we violate James 1:19’s admonition to be “quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger.” And yet it doesn’t have to be this way. The internet isn’t going anywhere, so we can either complain about how corrosive social media is or we can use our voices to elevate what is good and true and beautiful. So just as it is easy to press “send” on another nasty tweet or post, it is easy to press “send” on content that brings joy.
