episode 66: Does Social Media Make Us More Social? - Loving the Like
The social media landscape seems endless. Not only are there more and more platforms available, but there are also endless implications for humanity. These are some of the things Jeff, Mona and Allen explore this week. Does social media make us more social? Do we end up more disconnected in the long run? Is all of it it simply a funhouse mirror that distorts what’s already inside of us? We end our discussion with another round of Famous Christians for 100.
