Internet Idolatry & Gospel Fidelity

While surfing some of my favorite theological blogs this week, I discovered this awesome opportunity in Louisville, Kentucky:

A panel of speakers will discuss social media and Christian integrity—which fits right in with the mission of Faithful Bloggers, don’t you think?

From the group’s website (emphasis mine):

The theme for this year’s meeting is “Internet Idolatry and Gospel Fidelity.” With the advent of new media and the increasing influence of technology on our lives, it is important to address the relationship of the gospel to technology, especially the areas where we are tempted with idolatrous desire (power, identity, influence, acceptance, control, etc.).  While the internet, with all of its platforms (such as blogging, Facebook, Twitter, etc.) can be a powerful tool to leverage our lives for the gospel impact, we want to examine our hearts to bring to light the various ways in which the idol factory of our hearts challenges and subverts the very gospel which we long to embrace.

If you are able to go, leave us a note in the comments and tell us all about it!
