In this episode of From The Mount, we continue our Taboo Series. Social media is shaping far more than trends and entertainment it is shaping identity, confidence, relationships, and even truth itself. In this episode, Steve Kyle tackles one of the biggest influences in the lives of students today: social media and the search for approval. Joined by special guest Mo Isom Aiken, the conversation explores how platforms designed for connection are often creating comparison, anxiety, distraction, and unhealthy identity formation in both teenagers and adults. This episode offers practical wisdom for parents navigating phones, screen time, online influence, and difficult conversations at home while also reminding families that true identity can never be found in a platform, but only in Christ.
