Like it or not, technology has become a part of our daily lives. Phones, computers, tablets, televisions, video games - all of these things are vying for our attention and communicating what we should believe.

What does the Bible say about technology and how should we think about it? In what areas should we guard our minds and hearts against the shaping forces of our devices?

Thankfully, Scripture speaks truths that equip us to fight back against the lies of our digital age.
