Christians are in a tricky situation on social media today. On the one hand, they risk getting into trouble for sharing views which are now deemed out of step with contemporary society. As anyone who's been "beaten up" by a Twitter mob knows, controversial debates not only waste lots of time, but might also put your reputation, or even your livelihood, on the line as a result. Yet on the other hand, retreating from speaking up on controversial issues may gives away more ground in the public sphere. If Christians don't put up some kind of a fight on certain issues, it may come back to haunt them in more ways than they know. Aaron, Andy, and Michael dive into this topic, asking: How can we fight well on social media? What are the issues worth fighting over, and which ones should we leave alone? How could we support other Christians in their online skirmishes, and how can we guard our own hearts along the way? *** Pod of the Gaps is a listener-supported podcast.
