A prime example of good media being of God is General Conference. With conference weekend comes an amazing amount of good, related media.
During conference I love to watch the church's official twitter for specific quotes that I can copy down as well as for occasionally catching phrases I missed. I like following the #LDSconf because it also has quotes, pictures, and other conference related goodness.
I also think that facebook status and this conference the I'm a Mormon profile pictures all made the weekend a social media haven for spreading the gospel, having friends ask questions, and sharing our beliefs.
The devotional by Elder Bednar about Social Media kept coming in to my mind as I watched and participated in the Social Media Conference Events this weekend. I really think that it is a good push for member to promote their beliefs and stand as disciples online.

I love your post! I too loved Elder Bednar's talk and have felt that although I feel the Savior's healing power and strength in my own life, I'm missing out on doing my part when I don't share those moments from my life. Like the two little boys, I need to not only receive help and spiritual ointment, but I need to go out and share with others. So last night, I too joined the "I'm a Mormon" facebook profile group and am so happy I can serve as good media and an uplifting source. I know that if we diligently seek out good media that we will not only find it, but it will help us in our daily lives. Thanks for the reminder!
