“In the competitive landscape of the digital age, the “food” of information is not getting more nutritious; it’s veering in the direction of junk food. Doritos and Skittles will always get more clicks than spinach. And so we walk down the buffet line of social media snacks and online junk food, daily gorging ourselves to the point of gluttony. Unsurprisingly, it is making us sick.”

“Social media is a frequent “unwinding” activity for many. Yet it’s not actually that restful. Social media’s passivity is different from leisure, which has a tendency to refresh us by helping us to stop focusing so much on ourselves and our own mental state and instead pay attention to something pleasant outside us. This partially explains why an hour of scrolling Instagram or Facebook feels oddly tiring. What keeps us locked in for that amount of time is often aimlessness.”

“The consensus seems to be this: we should be deeply Christian artists. But that doesn't mean we should be something called Christian artists or that whatever we produce should be called Christian art. We should simply focus on our craft, on making the best art we can. We should understand that people will and should resonate with our work not because it is Christian but because it is good. Above all, Christians should make good art, true art; art unafraid of exploring mystery, portraying evil, and looking for truth wherever it appears.”
