Conflict Resolution Resources – Influencers

Discussion Thread: Conflict Resolution Resources – Influencers

This week in the Learn section, you were introduced to three theologians: John Piper, JD Greear, and Priscilla Shirer. John, JD, and Priscilla seek to impact those around them through their thoughtful teaching of biblical principles and the leading of the Holy Spirit. These theologians influence the thoughts and actions of people who follow them through their biblical teaching.

Perhaps you have heard of a Social Media Influencer. While this is a relatively new concept, in the Learn section, you were given the opportunity to read about an influencer. Typically, Social Media influencers use their platform to persuade followers to purchase specific brands and products. These influencers use their voice to directly impact the thoughts, behaviors, and actions of their followers. While this term typically refers to the marketing and branding of products, we are impacted by the people we follow on social media, the internet, and in real life (IRL).
