This is so well said. I, ...Thank you for sharing. This is so well said. I, too, have sensed my "relational tastebuds" changing. I took the socials off of my phone for Lent, and it has been so liberating. I find myself missing Twitter most, and Insta some, but Facebook least.

I very nearly deactivated my FBI account a while back because I was over all the stuff being posted. The only reason I kept it was to keep up with family, but I find I'm not in it very often and it takes up so much time, time I could be spending doing things with the people I love or doing hobbies. <br />Thank you fir a great thought provoking post. I'm going to look up the Jill Briscoe talk and have a listen.

I've had several conversations with people about deactivating Facebook. I still enjoy my IG feed (it's a little more for me and things enjoy - books etc. @joyseeking ) but Facebook has really been on my heart lately - from the time spent on it to how it's been making me feel lately. I listened to some of the IF:gathering conference as well and Jill Briscoe really blew me away. It was the first time I heard her speak. I enjoyed it so much I sent the link to my mom and shared it with my bible study ladies. The quotes you mentioned have been written in my journal as well - including the one where she said that her obedience came first and then the courage came.

I still "need" my account as I have a couple of groups that I am part of that use FB as a primary means of communication, but I have been *trying* to limit myself to just checking in on those groups, rather than scrolling through my newsfeed. I haven't been 100%, but I'm trying! I think as this school year wraps up and my commitments to leadership roles wrap up too I may deactivate my account for the summer and see where it leads me! <br /><br />Nicholehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01144095247492078887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14642592.post-82957241913435561592017-02-09T12:32:07.635-05:002017-02-09T12:32:07.635-05:00Totally get this!

I must confess that the first thought I had after reading your post was 'I want to share that on Facebook!!' My Facebook feed has become so full of political agendas and news reports (I don't watch ANY news). Making heart to heart connections is what is important. Social media can be a great tool, but it can really be one-sided so extra effort needs to be placed on making a more intimate connection. Thanks for a convicting post!!<br /><br />Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09244000177845838228noreply@blogger.com
