获取软件An Analog Life in a Digital World预览
Paul ends his letter to the church in Colossae by telling them to share his letter to the church in Laodicea and vice versa. Paul couldn’t be there in person, so he used the technology of his day – letters – to not only connect with churches far away, but also to connect those churches to each other. Laodicea was about 15km (10mi) away from Colossae, just the next town over. While Paul is in prison, he is still able to connect to churches all over the region. That’s the beauty of technology – it connects where distance divides. This week, we’ll look at how technology can teach, correct, encourage, and unite us in prayer, and how those things can ultimately help our relationships with God and each other.
In your own life, how have you seen technology bring connection where distance divided? Who do you live far away from that you could intentionally connect with over a digital platform this week?
Take a Next Step: There is one more week left in the mealtime challenge! What changes has it made in your life so far? Recommit to one more week of allowing no screens whatsoever during meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner – by yourself and with others).
Use this prompt to lead you into prayer:
God, thank you that no distance can separate me from you…
读经计划介绍
Screens dominate our daily experience, especially the one in our hands. The allure is taking priority over connection with God. But we can’t blame technology for our upside-down priorities. Digital innovations have put bibles in pockets and worship services in living rooms. We can learn to accept the good, reject the bad, and follow Jesus through it all by living an analog life in a digital world.
