How to Use Social Media for the Glory of God {#31Days of Missional Living} & Faith Filled Friday10/24/2013 If you've been around Missional Women very long, you probably know I am so grateful to live in this time period with access to social media because of the amazing opportunity it provides to reach and influence the world for Christ. For instance, have you read this post about how you can use facebook to reach an unreached people group? It was even featured on Joshua Project! Well, my good friend Angi and I wrote a book with a ton of other ideas of how you can use social media to reach and influence the world for Christ. Check outthe website to read more about it. Since we wrote it, it's been exciting to see how the Lord is using it. For instance there was a Christian leaders conference in Africa and the keynote speaker asked if we would be willing to give a copy to every person there. (We were excited too!) In Africa! Thousands of Christians in Africa now have a better idea of how to steward and use their social media platforms to glorify God. How awesome is that!?! You've been given a strategic tool and platform with your facebook, twitter, instagram, pinterest, blog etc. How are you going to use it to glorify God this week? Faith Filled Friday Blog Link UP We exist to glorify God, to display His heart and character. And I just love how we are all uniquely built to do that. So every Friday I want to give you, uniquely designed by God, an opportunity to link up your thoughts on God, art, baking, photography, parenting, marriage, homeschooling, writing or blogging and more if they tie into or display the the Lord somehow. So go ahead and link up below by clicking the link below and following the prompts. Please just let your readers know by including a link at the bottom of your post (or somewhere on your side bar) or put my button code (found below and on the side bar) so they can find these other great people glorifying God and we can continue to grow as a community.Thanks!

Wow, Africa! How wonderful! Six years ago I had never even heard of a "blog" and I wasn't on fb either. Social media and me just did not mix. We still aren't best friends yet but we're warming up! ;) Thanks for hosting.

What awesome news about how God is using you and your book! I love to share His Word online in a variety of ways and am so excited that we can be used by God at home and abroad even in the midst of parenting, caregiving, or whatever local ministry God has us in. Thanks for another grand week! Blessings.
