Contents 1 Plot 2 Use of Facebook 3 Cast 4 Episodes 5 Reception 5.1 Critical response 5.2 Ratings 6 References 7 External links Plot God Friended Me is described as a humorous, uplifting series that explores questions of faith, existence and science. It centers on Miles ( Hall ), an atheist whose life is turned upside down when he is friended by God on Facebook. Unwittingly, he becomes an agent of change in the lives and destinies of others around him. Cara ( Violett Beane ) is a leading writer at an online magazine. Under pressure for her next big story, her life takes an interesting turn when she meets Miles -- thanks to God 's friend suggestion. Use of Facebook God Friended Me uses Facebook frequently as a narrative device. The `` Friended '' in the title God Friended Me refers to the act of friending someone on social media, granting that person special privileges ( on the service in question ) with respect to oneself. On Facebook, for example, one 's friends have the privilege of viewing and posting to one 's timeline. In God Friended Me, this allows for God to contact Miles. While the majority of Facebook 's revenue is advertisement - derived, show creator Steven Lilien says that their conversations with Facebook have been limited to discussing `` how much we can portray it ''. According to executive producer Bryan Wynbrandt, the `` God '' of the show will be active on Facebook outside the show, with liking pages and changing their profile picture given as examples of their possible online activities.
