Post types in the feed
EncuentraIglesias's feed is not a general-purpose social network: it's designed for spiritual edification. That's why there are only five post types, each with a visual tag that helps everyone understand at a glance what it's about.
The five types
Prayer 🙏
Share a prayer request — yours or someone close to you. The community can respond by praying with you.
- What fits: personal requests, intercession for family, health situations, spiritual needs.
- Example: "Please pray for my mother, who is in treatment. God knows what she needs."
- Suggested length: between 80 and 300 characters, though you can go up to 600.
Testimony ✨
Share something God did in your life. It doesn't have to be extraordinary — everyday gratitude is edifying too.
- What fits: answers to prayer, moments of grace, life changes.
- Example: "After months looking for work, I received an offer this week. Thanks to God alone."
- Suggested length: 100–500 characters.
Praise 🎶
Express worship or gratitude without describing a specific event. It's celebrating who God is.
- What fits: phrases of worship, expressions of faith, general gratitude.
- Example: "His mercies are new every morning. Blessed be His name."
- Suggested length: 80–300 characters.
Verse 📖
Share a Bible reference with a short reflection on why that passage spoke to you.
- What fits: cite the reference (e.g. Psalm 23:1) and add 1–2 sentences of personal reflection.
- Example: "Philippians 4:7 — That peace that surpasses all understanding is real. I felt it this week."
- Note: you don't need to write out the full verse; a reference + your reflection is enough.
- Suggested length: 80–400 characters.
Question ❓
Ask a question about faith, practical theology, or Christian life. The community can answer in the comments.
- What fits: Bible questions, questions about spiritual practice, seeking faith-based advice.
- Example: "How do you keep your devotional time when work takes up the whole day?"
- Suggested length: 80–200 characters for the question; comments allow up to 200 characters each.
Why only five types
Limiting post types isn't arbitrary. It's what keeps the feed as a space for edification rather than becoming a news wall. Each type has a clear purpose, which also makes moderation easier to protect everyone.
Length limits
| Element | Minimum | Maximum |
|---|---|---|
| Post | 80 chars | 600 chars |
| Comment | — | 200 chars |
If your post is shorter than 80 characters, the system will ask you to expand it. If it exceeds 600, you'll need to trim it before posting.
