Technology and the Church of Jesus Christ

Technology can and will be used for both good and evil purposes.  If we sit idly by, and do not use it for good, who else will?  We need to use it for good to make a positive impact in the world.  It is our responsibility and a charge of  stewardship to use these new technologies wisely.  It is important to know that we can gauge our use of new technologies by asking ourselves if it helps us be more loving and helpful to other people.  Another aspect of measurement is to see if the invention is drawing us closer to Christ.  The internet is one of the most important inventions of the past few decades.  This is a major opportunity for the church of Jesus Christ and its members to make a mark of good in the world.  We can do this by not being anonymous and doing things online that are in tune with our standards.  Some members of the Church of Jesus Christ have used blogs, and others have used social media to share their beliefs and personalities.  This will help those not of our faith as well as our own families as they see our true faithfulness on the web.
