Fund conversations that matter: donate.accessmore.comThis week we're discussing How to Begin Healthy Tech Practices in Your Family with Andy Crouch In the past 20 years, technology has advanced at an outstanding, often overwhelming rate. It's ubiquitous; we use it at work, classrooms, homes, and churches. We use it to communicate, be entertained, interact with others, perform household tasks, navigate, wake us up, and countless other uses. It's at our beck and call 24/7. For all its positive and life-changing attributes, it also has incredibly addictive qualities that keep us from living in reality. As parents, we need to be intentional about how we use technology, but it increasingly feels like an uphill battle. How do we implement healthy and realistic technological use in our families? Andy Crouch is a partner for theology and culture at Praxis, a venture-building ecosystem advancing redemptive entrepreneurship. His writing explores faith, culture, and the image of God in the domains of technology, power, leadership, and the arts.

Our lives are mediated by technology—jobs, relationships, and spiritual lives can all be conducted via screen. And it's hard to imagine life any other way. Try as we might, few of us will be going back to the 19th century any time soon...nor might we want to.But for all its benefits, tech can easily take over; its promises of an easy life can take away our abilities to attend, consider, and love. And in a world of algorithms that target our subconscious, it's ever harder to make conscious choices towards virtue.With help from sources both new and ancient, we'll consider what it means to be human in a world of devices—and simple, practical actions for a tech-wise life.—Download the FREE companion guide to this workshop at www.jubileeconference.com/livingjubilee!

Shownotes:Among 19-20 year olds, only 1% do not have social media accounts. This statistic emphasizes the ever-growing presence that social media and technology have in our day-to-day lives. While this comes with its advantages, it's also important to consider the dangers of such constant connection and how to create wise boundaries that help us live a “tech-wise” life. How can controlled usage of social media help protect us from its negative effects?Amy Crouch is a student at Cornell University and, with her father Andy Crouch, co-author of “My Tech Wise Life: Growing Up and Making Choices in a World of Devices.” She joins Chris and Eddie to discuss what boundaries and understandings regarding technology are necessary to harness its advantages while mitigating its negative effects. Crouch bases her message around the understanding that technology is not a bad thing, but something that must be seen as a tool rather than a foundation of life. What does that look like practically? Tune in to the conversation to find out!Series Info:Social media has changed the way messages are shared throughout the world with a rapidity that is unparalleled. Its effects on culture, for better and for worse, are undeniable and seemingly inescapable. It's impossible to grasp in totality what the increasing role of social media will mean for our society, but one thing is for sure: the Church needs to talk about it. In our new series “Social Media Culture,” Chris and Eddie will engage in conversations about how Christians can establish healthier habits with technology and cultivate a more faithful manner of engagement on social media. It's important for the Church to consider the advantages of this cultural shift, such as innovative outreach and the uplifting of important voices and messages, while also guarding against the threats, such as constant comparison, misinformation, and dissociation from the surrounding world.

Maybe you've noticed that we humans are the only creatures making podcasts. That's at least partially because we're the only creatures that have developed the tools to make it happen—microphones and compressors, computers and word processors. But technology encompasses a lot more than just machines with microchips. In this episode we explore our use of technology starting with the simplest tools up to the recent advances in artificial intelligence to see what role it has had in our development and in our identity as a member of the human species.  In this new Language of God mini series—Uniquely Unique—Jim is joined by our producer Colin for a deep dive into these questions and more. The quest? To try to come to a better understanding of what it means to be human, to bear the image of God. Along the way, you'll hear from a variety of experts from a wide range of disciplines, drawing on biology, history, anthropology, philosophy, theology and more to try to make sense of our human identity.

What if your decisions about how to use technology were based on your fundamental beliefs about what it means to be a human being, and what human flourishing is? Now, what if your children also made their decisions about technology in that way? I know that sounds like a doubly-tall task, like a fantastic sort of idealism. But what if I told you that this is not only doable, but utterly practical and liberating? And I know just the book that can help you think about the right use of technology, and help your kids to do so, too. My guest today is the author of that book. She is Amy Crouch, who wrote My Tech-wise Life: Growing Up and Making Choices in a World of Devices. In fact, she wrote this book when she was 19. I have read more books about technology than I'd like to admit, and I can tell you that this book is among the very best. Part of what makes it so spectacular is that Amy gives us a practical vision of how she and her family made their decisions about technology as a community and developed specific, intentional practices to cultivate their most cherished values while avoiding potential vices. And the book is just so readable, and enlightening. Amy joins me today to talk not just about her book, but about the vision of the good life that underlies her “tech-wise life” and how we can all make very small and practical decisions to be more fully and genuinely human.
