We live in a time when social media and digital technology is a prominent tool to disseminate messages as well as doctrinal beliefs at the touch of a button. There are drawbacks to such availability and power. There is reputable content, and there is questionable content flying under the radar of aesthetics with passable or recognizable terminology. There is now a rise in people wanting to build their own brands and digital kingdoms on these platforms. Clickbait material and sensational subjects are being used in order to funnel people to channels and followings. One of the things being used to validate this practice is the gospel. But is the gospel being proclaimed according to Scripture?Join Dawn on this Contending for the Word episode as she discusses this practice with an insider from a program designed to build social media platforms in a way akin to multi-level marketing.Subscribing, sharing, and your feedbackYou can subscribe to Contending for the Word via iTunes, Spotify, or your favorite podcast catcher.
