#tweetthebible2011: Leveraging Social Networking For Eternal Impact



We can’t escape social networking, but is that all bad?

One of the top reasons people use social networking such as Twitter and Facebook includes stalking, gossiping, and falling into the peer pressure of all the hype. 87 million visitors spend an average of 4 hours and 39 minutes every month on Facebook. But is Facebook and Twitter the ultimate time waster? It doesn’t have to be. The simple reality is that people utilize these networks and post according to what matters most in their lives. What if we leveraged these social networks for making an eternal impact in 2011?

You Version is an application on my iphone that has a great reading strategy for scripture. There are other networks that help too!

What if we read through scripture each day in 2011 and posted a 140 character principle (timeless truth) on Twitter or Facebook using the hashtag #tweetthebible2011 ? For instance, my Genesis 1 principle is “All Creation is the result of the Goodness of God”. There are endless principles in scripture and those principles are life altering. Maybe #tweetthebible2011 will even be a trending topic.

So start reading scripture in 2011 and tell the World what principle God is teaching you using the hashtag #tweetthebible2011.
