IS GOD IN YOUR SPACE?
MySpace is a popular international social networking Website that offers an interactive, user-submitted network of friends, personal profiles, blogs, groups, photos, music, and videos. There are millions of subscribers.
Why is MySpace so popular? Because it connects people—for good and bad.
“The most terrible poverty is lonelinessand the feeling of being unloved.” –Mother Teresa
Loneliness plagues our society. While technological progress has succeeded in networking our world, our ability to connect relationally has not kept pace. God in MySpace looks at systemic spiritual, psychological, and social barriers to forming real relationships.
Author Derek Knoke delves into the MySpace culture and probes issues including:
LONELINESS, IDENTITY,ANONYMITY, SELF-AUTONOMY,AND GODSPACE.
Anyone who cares for today’s youth will find in God in MySpace the tools they need to create environments that are conducive for nurturing authentic connections and real relationships.
