Précis
Digital technology is coming to have an increasingly dominant place in our lives. How, as Christians, should we think about this? What effects do our phones have on ourselves, and on the world? These three talks will address these issues from a non-technical, layman’s perspective, seeking a faith-informed view on our button-pushing existence.
