Is it surprising that Facebook is so popular among young and old?

The various ways “friends” use Facebook to post the activities of their life can be surprising.

Posts range from a play-by-play view of every event of the day to the promotion of new entrepreneurial endeavors.

Facebook, like many other media venues, can be used for good and bad.

I find Facebook as a powerful tool to advocate some leadership principles. One primary opportunity Facebook affords each of us is to encourage others and point them in a positive direction.

Some of my friends do this by posting a passage of scripture. What a great way to provide spiritual leadership.

Some choose to speak of the creative beauty of God’s creation.

Others use the opportunity to speak encouraging words to help build up friends.

I would love to see more creativity in using Facebook to provide greater levels of spiritual leadership. Also, remember less is more when it comes to posts. The same is true in leadership.
