Each day, all of us are surrounded by technology: we text our friends, we listen to our iPods, we post pictures on facebook, we might have even gotten into Twitter (or at least signed up to get Shaq’s tweets, because he’s a funny dude). But I wonder if any of us have really stopped to think about how our faith in Christ impacts the way we use all that technology…in other words, how do the principles that Jesus talks about impact our lives online?
This week, we’re hosting two events having to do with faith & technology. The first is for your parents, and it is on Wednesday from 7-9pm at the church, and it’ll help them learn about what technology is out there and how to best interact with you on it. If they’re interested in coming, more info can be found on the church’s site. The second event will be at SI on Thursday, and it’ll be geared towards you as a student, where we’ll think together about how we can live out our faith in a technological world. Both sessions will be taught by a guy named Tim Challies, who is a Christian author and blogger that you might have heard of. (He has a pretty cool blog that you can check out: www.challies.com). It should be pretty interesting, so we look forward to seeing you there!
