Elder Bednar recently encouraged members to use social media to flood the earth with the gospel message. Are you doing as he suggests? Time for a poll.

We’ll Spam the World His Truth (Weekend Poll)
Wheat & Tares 
Someone ought to get their tech-vocabulary straight. SPAM = unsolicited email. Elder Bednar did not ask members to spam as the title implies. The title is hyperbole.
Someone ought to pay attention to the memetic mutation of terms on the internet. Spam is widely used as a term to explain en masse messaging with no intended audience. It stands, after all, for Stupid Pointless Annoying Message, and that’s what putting Mormon messages on social media all the time is – stupid, pointless, and annoying.
Only to criticize them.
I didn’t hear his devotional address. Did he say flood it with the gospel or flood it with prepackaged, church developed videos and illustrated quotes?
I use social media to share ideas I think are enlightened and to spread information about community service opportunities.
Therefore I do, at times, on social media, share what I believe is enlghtened gospel truth from various sources when i find some that sings to my soul.
I never have felt the need to post church produced materials in order to do so, though sometimes the ideas do come from church sources.
Some of my friends have posted church produced material. Not a problem. If that’s what sings to their soul, that’s okay with me.
