Thoughts on Pokémon GO

There's a big concern about the new game for mobile devices called Pokémon GO.

I'll admit that I don't plan on playing it often, but we can't ignore that there are a lot more advantages to games like this. We can be creative. This is a tool, it can be used as evil or as good.

People hate that it's causing groups to form. Well, it's like the old community ice cream socials of the past, just in a brand new form. It's gathering people together for some fun. I've read and heard stories about friends meeting each other unexpectedly and then hanging out. In this world of hurt and rumors of division, this may help!

As Christ followers, can we use this as a positive tool? You bet! Don't be a pain or distraction, but this a way to meet others, make friends, and share the Good NEWS! Hmmmmm. What a novel idea.....
