Until recently, Instagram was a purely happy space for me. My account is locked, and I only follow people I actually know and like. This means my feed is a respite from nonsense, not a portal into it. But I am human, and remain drawn to nonsense. And so, sometime toward the end of last year, I opened a new anonymous account to follow strangers who don’t make me happy: the Trump family, media strivers, celebrities, and so on.

Because I report on religion, and especially evangelical culture, many of my initial follows were prominent pastors, authors, and speakers. But I soon realized the more interesting follows often occupied the lower tiers of fame: the spouses and children of jet-setting pastors, or people who clearly aspire to fame but haven’t quite gotten there. Also, Tim Tebow. I had tumbled into the world of Christian influencers: Stylish types posting about their stylish lives, but with Bible verses and vaguely Jesus-y phrases peppering their captions. I knew I was hooked when I saw this post from a daughter of Trump-supporting televangelist Jentezen Franklin. She’s sporting an off-the-shoulder top and gazing into the distance through wire-frame sunglasses, a stunning view of Jerusalem behind her. The caption: “Just thinking about Jesus.”

The following is far from a comprehensive guide to Christian Instagram, but it includes representatives from many of its corners. Consider it a starter pack for the “Just thinking about Jesus” crowd.

Representative post: “A really cool back story—A few minutes before we came out to lead we prayed as a team. I prayed that the presence of God would feel so tangible that it would feel like it was touching our faces. I prayed acts 2:2 ‘suddenly there came a sound like a mighty rushing wind, and it filled the entire house where they were sitting’. We started our set and right in the middle of it the roof of the arena began to open and a whirlwind of wind began rushing into the room….”
