Do you dare turn down this invitation?!
Yesterday I received an invitation for a LinkedIn connection from a friend and former student named Christian (last name obscured for his privacy).
LinkedIn invitations allow the recipient to indicate whether the inviter is an actual acquaintance, helping to regulate unwanted advances of the type so prevalent on less professionally-oriented social networks.
What’s interesting in this case, is what happened when LinkedIn abbreviated for the buttons…
There are some ominous spiritual overtones here, to be sure…
In case anybody is wondering, I clicked on “Accept.” ![]()

Wow, thankfully Christ’s invitations aren’t one-time offers!
