Technology advancements have caused everyone to spend extended time engaged in digital spaces. Whether we like it or not, this trend keeps increasing. The world we are stepping into is continually growing drastically more digital.
Digital universes or metaverses we interact in aren't all fake. When we interact with others online, it's an extension of ourselves. The scary part comes in because there is a merging of reality with fake spaces.
Most of the time, the metaverses that exist do cause more harm to users. They're built to addict users to spend more time there which gains the builders of the platforms more money. And trying to keep people engaged isn't governed by moral obligations. Many times more deplorable content is introduced to suck users into these digital universes even more, even to their harm.
So what can the church do? What role do or should Christians play in these digital worlds? Does Jesus want us to be involved in these metaverses or not?
Christopher Adams, founder and developer of the digital metaverse called "Lands Of Elohim", speaks into all these topics and more. As a Christian who desires to spread the Gospel, Christopher tells us why the Church not only should be, but is already involved in great and positive ways spreading the love and truth of Jesus digitally.
Listen as Christopher talks about the dangers that will come if the church runs away from this issue. But also the blessings and benefits that are coming as the church encounters those unreached people who would otherwise never come to the knowledge of the truth of the Gospel if it weren't for finding Jesus in the digital world.
