Sawyer Poitra joins Karen today for a discussion of how online friendship might be hindering face-to-face friendship. Sawyer is the CEO of the Women's Resource Center in Gillette, and also works in social media marketing. Social media has its place in society, in ministry, and in friendship, however, at some levels, it is keeping us from the joy of authentic in-person community.
Questions for discussion:
The Takeaway: Investing in face-to-face relationships is more work (than social media friendships), but will result in deeper, more life-giving friendships.
To Do This Week: Do a social media assessment (or NetFlix, or t.v., or whatever other way you choose to use your time that keeps you from face to face relationship). Cut back your social media (or other distraction) by one hour a day and invest that time in a face-to-face relationship.
