In this episode of Christianly, Tony Wood, Teaching Pastor of Mission Bible Church Costa Mesa, and Dean Defuria, Executive Pastor of Mission Bible, discuss how social media has given Christians an incredible opportunity to share the gospel, but it comes with significant challenges. In this episode, we explore the spiritual cost of chasing the algorithm and how it can harm both pastors and congregants. Are influencers unintentionally competing with local church leaders? Is the pursuit of followers overshadowing faithfulness to God? We unpack the dangers of prioritizing platforms over character, the impact of algorithm-driven fear and insecurity, and how to maintain accountability in the digital age.
If you’ve ever wondered how to apply your faith to daily life, this episode will equip and encourage you to live out your beliefs with clarity and purpose.
