Meeting Every Day: The Social Media Way

In the early church they met every day and one of the challenges that the 21st Century church has is that time does not allow us to meet every day. We have jobs, activities, etc. that make it very difficult to meet on a daily basis.

However, one of the neat things about the social media is that it does allow for people to interact with each other on a daily basis, if one chooses to do so. Facebook is a very common form of social media. It allows people to be connected and to update what is going on in their life...some on a daily basis.

I was not ever all that close with my cousins, but Facebook has allowed me to visit and connect with them. I would have never guessed that it would have happened like it did. I also have connected with past classmates from grade school to college to preaching school, all through this this form of social media. The picture shows a picture form of my friends on Facebook.

So, even though our schedules may prevent us from meeting at a given location on a daily basis, but thanks to social media, we can meet at the location we are at and still be in the same “location” as our friends and Christian family. Though it does not take the place of person-to-person contact, it is still a great way to stay in touch!
