18- Brian Roberg | Use Social Media, Don't Let It Use You

The DiscipleMakers Podcast

On this episode of The DiscipleMakers Podcast, we talked with Brian Roberg about social media.
With more and more of our social interaction happening online these days, it is important for us to consider how we interact with the different social media platforms we use to communicate with others. Why are we doing it? What do we hope to get out of these interactions? And most importantly, what do we want others to take away?

We talked about these questions in the course of our conversation with Brian, and also considered the motives of the companies that run social media platforms. Towards the end of the episode, we also explored the exciting opportunities we have this fall to meet new students on campus through social media, and invite them into our fellowships.
