Episode 6 - Should Christians Delete Their Social Media Accounts?

In this episode Aaron, Andy and Michael discuss the challenges of using social media. Over the last decade a growing number of people have started to raise awareness of the dangers of social media usage, including some who were the pioneers of these platforms. These concerns have been given more prominence through the recent Netflix documentary ‘The Social Dilemma’. As well as discussing these concerns, we think about how we can respond to them. Should we simply delete our accounts? Or is there another way to engage constructively and positively so that we can stay ‘users’ without being ‘used’? And how does the Christian faith equip us to engage differently in this world? We discuss all these questions with the usual mixture of cultural comment, theological insight, apologetic reflection and banter. *** Pod of the Gaps is a listener-supported podcast.
