Summary

Clair dives into the timeless story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to explore sacred boundaries. This narrative reveals a profound truth: we were created for limits, not to restrict us, but to invite us into a deeper relationship with God. The serpent's temptation to 'be like God' mirrors our modern struggle with technology, as we strive to be all-knowing, all-present, and all-powerful through our devices. But what if these limitations are actually divine gifts? By embracing our human limits, we make room for God to move in our lives, freeing us from the exhausting pursuit of godlike status. As we consider a 'digital fast,' we're challenged to reexamine our relationship with technology and rediscover the beauty of being present in the physical world God has placed us in.
