154 Distracted by Jesus

from The Daily Grind · host John Spencer

Thursday, January 4: In this episode of The Daily Grind podcast, we delve into the pervasive issue of screen time in our lives and its impact on our spiritual well-being. Drawing inspiration from Matthew 6:6, which encourages to get away to pray, we explore how excessive screen time can become a stumbling block in our spiritual journey. With alarming statistics on screen usage, we discuss the potential pitfalls, including a shift of focus from God to screens, decreased engagement in spiritual practices, and the negative effects on mental and emotional well-being. Join us as we navigate the challenges and offer practical tips on how to prioritize Jesus in a world filled with digital distractions. ⁠Emailme your questions, comments, and suggestions.
