It's astonishing how technology (smartphones, tablets, laptops, GPS, etc.) has influenced our lives--for both good and bad? So, would it surprise you to know that "technology" shows up in the Bible and plays a vital role in God's story? In this Discover the Word study, the group explores several stories where technology plays a role. And as we study those passages together, we may find wisdom and freedom for how to use tech well in our modern world to draw us closer to God and others. WAYS TO LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE:📱On our website: https://www.discovertheword.org🎧Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3x2Swlq🎧Spotify: https://go.odb.org/dtwspotify🎧Amazon Music: https://amzn.to/3D9Tttv🎧YouTube Music:  https://go.odb.org/yt-music-playlist🎧 YouTube: https://bit.ly/3E8LFdzLOOKING FOR MORE EPISODES of the Discover the Word Podcast?

Learn how, most often, what God considers a great life is built on a foundation of "holy redundancy," as Mart and Elisa and Bill welcome Jeff Manion to the table for this series called "Dream Big, Think Small." WAYS TO LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE:📱On our website: https://www.discovertheword.org🎧Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/3x2Swlq🎧Spotify: https://go.odb.org/dtwspotify🎧Amazon Music: https://amzn.to/3D9Tttv🎧YouTube Music:  https://go.odb.org/yt-music-playlist🎧 YouTube: https://bit.ly/3E8LFdzLOOKING FOR MORE EPISODES of the Discover the Word Podcast?
