TikTok Theology: How Algorithms Are Shaping Belief Instead of Scripture

In today’s digital age, Christian content is everywhere. From TikTok and Instagram Reels to YouTube Shorts and viral sermon clips, believers are being shaped by 30-second messages that sound spiritual—but are they biblical?

In this episode of The Faith Fight Podcast, we expose the viral lies spreading through Christian social media and explain how algorithms are twisting Scripture, distorting sound doctrine, and creating a shallow version of faith. Many believers are unknowingly building their theology on emotional clips, half-verses, and prophetic trends instead of the full counsel of God’s Word.

We break down why social media was never designed for discipleship, how speed, emotion, and the illusion of authority make false teaching feel like revelation, and why trends like “God told me to tell you” can be spiritually dangerous when left untested. Using Scripture, we examine the biblical role of prophecy, the importance of accountability, and how ear-tickling content leads to spiritual immaturity and confusion.

This episode also addresses the long-term consequences of learning faith from social media—weak discernment, emotional Christianity, drifting from church community, and believing in a god shaped by content creators instead of the God revealed in Scripture.

Most importantly, you’ll learn how to develop biblical discernment in a world full of Christian noise, including practical steps to test teaching, recognize manipulation, stay rooted in God’s Word, and pursue truth without relying on clickbait or hype.

If you want to grow in faith, avoid false doctrine, and learn how to recognize truth from error in today’s online Christian culture, this episode is essential listening.
