An Analog Life in a Digital WorldSample

We’ve spent the last five days examining whether or not our screen time is aiding or hindering our sanctification (aka becoming more like Jesus), and if we walk in freedom or slavery to digital masters. In this final section of his letter to the church in Philippi, Paul is encouraging them to focus their hearts and their minds on the most important things as they learn and grow in serving God and one another.

Take a moment to reflect on your week and make note of the moments of joy, of peace, of prayer, of good choices.

Take a Next Step: Make a list of the apps and websites you use on a daily basis. Then review the adjectives listed in Philippians 4:8. How well does your screen time reflect those positive qualities? What changes can you make that will help you limit the "junk" and keep the "lovely"?

Memorize:

Whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.  -Philippians 4:8
