Chapter 1 What's Swipe Right by Levi Lusko"Swipe Right: The Life-and-Death Power of Sex and Romance" is a book by Levi Lusko that explores the intersection of love, relationships, and faith in the modern world. Lusko, a pastor and author, addresses the complexities of romance in a digital age where concepts of love can often become superficial. In "Swipe Right," he discusses the cultural norms surrounding dating and sexuality, emphasizing the importance of integrity, commitment, and the spiritual implications of our choices. Lusko encourages readers to reclaim authenticity in their relationships, guiding them to recognize the divine purpose in intimacy. The book is infused with personal anecdotes and biblical wisdom, creating a compelling message about pursuing meaningful connections rather than fleeting encounters. Ultimately, Lusko advocates for a deeper understanding of romance that honors both oneself and God.Chapter 2 Swipe Right by Levi Lusko SummarySwipe Right: The Life and Death of the Church in the Technology Age by Levi Lusko is a thought-provoking exploration of how technology, particularly social media and dating apps, has reshaped our understanding of relationships, God, and church community. Summary:In "Swipe Right," Levi Lusko, a pastor and author, delves into the implications of the digital age on personal relationships and spiritual life. He addresses the pervasive influence of technology, particularly how it affects dating, marriage, friendships, and our connection to the church. Key Themes:Digital Relationships: Lusko uses the metaphor of "swiping right"—a common action in dating apps—to discuss how modern relationships can often be superficial. He emphasizes the danger of relying on technology for authentic connections and the impact this has on our romantic and platonic relationships. Loneliness and Isolation: Despite being more connected than ever through social media, many individuals feel increasingly isolated. Lusko highlights the contradiction between online interactions and genuine companionship, suggesting that true community must be grounded in personal interactions. Spiritual Disconnection: The author argues that technology not only affects our social lives but also our relationship with faith and the church. Many people replace traditional church practices with online experiences, which may fail to provide the depth and support found in a physical congregation. Searching for Meaning: Lusko explores how individuals often seek fulfillment in fleeting pleasures offered by the digital world, such as dating apps, instead of finding deeper meaning through faith and community involvement. Redefining Love: The book challenges readers to think about what love truly means in the age of technology. Lusko encourages a return to biblical definitions of love that focus on commitment, sacrifice, and community rather than convenience. Conclusion:"Swipe Right" is a call to action for readers to navigate the complexities of modern relationships while grounding their lives in faith and authentic community. Lusko's insights serve as a reminder of the importance of forming deeper connections, both with others and with God, in a world that often prioritizes immediacy and convenience over genuine engagement.Chapter 3 Swipe Right AuthorLevi Lusko is a Christian pastor, author, and founder of the Fresh Life Church, which is based in Montana.
