Social media has changed its users’ lives in unprecedented ways. We have what they call, “Influencers”. The influencers are essentially content creators who share information that affects the behaviors, attitudes, and choices of their audience. Major companies have hired them to promote their brand. For instance, if an influencer were to wear a certain clothing brand, their followers would be influenced to buy that same brand. Many of our youth and young adults visit this platform hoping to be an influencer because they can be someone they admire. They seek validation and acceptance. These influencers can drive a person to think differently. We all have seen our youth with their eyes glued to a screen, watching videos of people that they are being influenced by. These influencers sometimes have more control over a young person than their own parents. Many have put their faith in the person they see on those platforms.

As Christians, we have an influencer who is 100% right 100% of the time. Following Him will give us peace, contentment, and joy.”
