WHO: Paul David Tripp, a pastor, award-winning author and speaker.

HE SAYS: “Social media tends to distort relationships and plunder our humanity.”

THE BIG IDEA: This book instructs readers to view digital media and technology through the lens of the gospel.

THE PROGRESSION: In 12 chapters, the author points believers toward a biblical framework of communication in order to stand above the toxicity that seems to be everywhere around us.

“We desperately need something in our lives that can cut through all the noise of all the opinions, help us to think correctly and respond appropriately to the things that we are now facing.”
