Social Media is a great tool to connect with others. The ability to instantly speak to hundreds, and even thousands, of people is amazing.
But, it does bring with it a warning.
Sometimes you don’t need to say it.
Sometimes you don’t need to say it.
If you’ve been on Social Media long enough you’ve seen the meltdowns, rants, and complaints
- The wife letting her husband (who is not on Facebook) “have it”
- The employee telling his boss off
- The teenager griping about their parents
- The young adult chronicling their emotional breakdown – hour by hour
- The middle school kid talking about another middle school kid
All Social Media does is reveal who you really are – so be careful!
Social Media outlets are not the place to:
- Say something negative about your spouse
- Unload on the deacons
- Tell the church how bad they are
- Vaguely (and poorly) leave a “message” to the member who will “know who they are”
You may be tempted – but don’t do it – You will regret it!! Avoid the temptation to put anything negative out – it is not worth it and it could probably be classified as “unchristian”.
Set your phone/computer/device down and walk away.
Sometimes, the best you can do is just leave your status blank.
